Glucosamine Sulphate
for Knee Pain
Glucosamine sulphate (prescription grade) has RCT evidence for reducing knee OA pain and may slow joint space narrowing with long-term use.
How it works
Provides substrate for proteoglycan synthesis in cartilage matrix. May inhibit cartilage-degrading enzymes and reduce synovial inflammation. Effects are slow-developing.
What to watch for
Pharmaceutical-grade glucosamine sulphate (1500mg/day) shows more consistent evidence than OTC glucosamine hydrochloride. Effects are modest and not universal. Shellfish allergy concern.
