Glucosamine and heart disease

Does anyone take these?  If so there is an interesting new study which shows this supplement MAY help prevent heart disease.  All to do with it's anti-inflammatory properties apparently.

Hello Shadyglade

Very interesting link,  thank you.

Inflammation seems to be a factor in many conditions plus oestrogen has anti inflammatory properties which would explain why women are protected from heart disease before the menopause.

Take care.
