that's the stuff my wife recommends for all her patients. People, dogs, horses and the occasional politician.
She's a physical therapist.
We get it at costco for about $50 on sale.
Hopefully she's clear that it's her personal rather than professional recommendation-- there's absolutely no evidence as to the effectiveness of Glucosamine in joint health and a licensed therapist should not be recommending it.
I went to doctors quite a bit this year and was surprised that few recommendations had no scientific basis. makes me wonder about the role of science in their practice.
