Glucosamine sulfate is a dietary supplement that is primarily used for treating arthritis. It is an amino sugar naturally found in the human body and appears to work for osteoarthritis by reducing inflammation, stimulating the cells that make and maintain cartilage, and decreasing the production of certain compounds that degrade cartilage. Some people are more likely to experience problems due to supplements; you should talk to your healthcare provider before using glucosamine sulfate if you have diabetes, high cholesterol, or asthma.
