Effects of Glucosamine Sulfate Studied in Animal Models
| Article
Summary: |
Rats
with inflammation of the joints and arthritis were
administered oral doses of glucosamine sulfate daily.
Glucosamine sulfate was compared to indometacin,
which is known to be toxic at certain levels. Glucosamine
sulfate was found to be effective at reducing the
inflammation in the joints of the rats. The glucosamine
sulfate is considered to be a much safer form of
treatment for arthritis. |
