Glucosamine And MSM Synergistic for Arthritis
Glucosamine and MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) combined are more effective against osteoarthritis than either agent alone, according to researchers. With the addition of Chondroitin and Hyaluronic Acid, the combination is even more effective.
In a clinical trial, 118 patients with mild to moderate osteoarthritis were treated three times daily with either 500 milligrams of glucosamine, 500 milligrams of MSM, a combination of both, or an inactive placebo.
After 12 weeks of treatment, the average pain score had fallen from 1.74 to 0.65 in the glucosamine-only group. In MSM-only participants, it fell from 1.53 to 0.74. However, in the combination group, it fell from 1.7 to 0.36.
