Health experts consider Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate as a popular supplement for arthritis.

Glucosamine effective for relieving pain and inflammation, increase mobility and assist in the repair and maintain cartilage. This is because the Glucosamine has been shown to stimulate bone formation and repair of cartilage.
Meanwhile, the combination of Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate were found to be more effective as a treatment of osteoarthritis in moderate and serious level, rather than Glucosamine alone or Celecoxib (a medicine non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDs)), which provides temporary relief. These findings are from GAIT (Glucosamine / Chondroitin Arthritis Intervention Trial) conducted in the United States of sponsoring the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
