Because of the side effects of anti-inflammatory medications, some people turn to natural alternatives for relief of painful osteoarthritis. One of the most commonly used natural treatments is glucosamine. Glucosamine for osteoarthritis is a natural supplement found in many health food stores that helps to rebuild cartilage damaged by the ravages of osteoarthritis. Unfortunately, not everyone experiences relief from taking glucosamine and studies have shown mixed results. Now, new research suggests that combining glucosamine with omega-3 fatty acids may be a more effective treatment than using glucosamine alone for osteoarthritis pain<\/p>\n

At the end of this period, the participants were given tests to determine their degree of pain. The researchers found that the participants who took the combination of glucosamine and omega-3\u2019s had less painful osteoarthritis symptoms and experienced reduced early morning stiffness.<\/p>\n
