Original: Glucosamine, a popular joint supplement, linked to faster Alzheimer’s progression | ScienceDaily https://www. sciencedai

New research reported by ScienceDaily suggests glucosamine, a widely used joint supplement taken by millions for arthritis and cartilage health, may be associated with faster progression of Alzheimer's disease. The finding is drawing attention because the supplement has long been viewed as safe and is commonly self-prescribed, raising questions about its effects on the ageing brain.

Why now: A surprising study finding contradicts the assumption that a popular over-the-counter supplement is harmless.
