GLUCOSAMINE - POSITIVE PROOF

Proof Positive
Many clinical trials have demonstrated that glucosamine results in less pain due to cartilage deterioration and a wider range of movement.

The first studies were performed in the 1960s, using injectable forms of glucosamine sulfate. When glucosamine sulfate became available in pill form, research switched to this.

Up to the present, most glucosamine studies have been performed outside of North America. In all of these studies, glucosamine sulfate proves to maintain joint health.

• An early study in Italy found that 20 percent of those using glucosamine sulfate became "symptom-free." Nearly 25 percent had no restriction of active or passive movement. The researchers concluded that glucosamine sulfate rebuilt damaged cartilage. Clinical Therapeutics 3, no. 4 (1980): 226-272.

• A large-scale study looked at over 1,200 patients with osteoarthritis. Results show that pain decreased throughout the trial, that both active and passive movement improved, and that glucosamine proved to work for six to 12 weeks after treatment had stopped. Pharmatherapeutica 3, no. 3 (1982): 157-168.

• In a study comparing glucosamine sulfate to the pain reliever ibuprofen, the ibuprofen proved more effective the first two weeks, but then faded. After eight weeks, the glucosamine sulfate group reported better results. Current Medical Research and Opinioin 8, no. 3 (1982): 145-149.

• More recently, Italian researchers found glucosamine to be more effective than placebos or traditional NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) in treating osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis and Cartliage 5, supplement A (1997): 82.

It should be noted that although there are positive results in all of these studies, not all participants experience them. Thus, although glucosamine works for many people, it does not necessarily work for all people.
