When it comes to safety, some clinical studies have reported more side effects in a sugar pilled placebo than with Glucosamine! Remember, Glucosamine is found naturally in the body and is a natural nutraceutical.

HeartScan – website for National network of non-invasive, accurate method of determining risk of coronary artery disease by grading the degree of calcification.  Highly recommended because this can be either patient directed or physician directed, it is non-invasive, it is accurate and, most important, does not eventuate in an aggressive and intimidating decision.  You decide, along with your physician what course of action to take. This does not rush patients into unnecessary angioplasty or coronary artery bypasses unless you decide.  We are finding this an important diagnostic tool that allows our patient the choice of conventional or alternative therapies.
