Guest guest Posted December 17, 2004 Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 You may want to be careful with the Glucosamine Chonodroitin combination, I have heard that it may cause the Prostate to grow.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2004 Report Share Posted December 18, 2004 Hi Mike, Where did you hear that about glucosamine and chondroitin? I like to see sources, myself. FYI, I heard the PSA test is unreliable, sorry to here they took a chunk out of you because of it. Ow... http://www.google.com/search?hl=en & q=PSA+test+unreliable & btnG=Google+Search I personally only take glucosamine, I skip the chondroitin as it's efficacy didn't seem that significant by comparison. Worked wonders on my knees.

My understanding is that prostate cancer is only an issue with the Chondroitin part, so, apparently, glucosamine alone is without PCa risk.
