Glucosamine

Question:
I received the ordered glucosamine. I still use calcium tablets for my joints, can I continue using them? Or does glucosamine contain enough calcium?

Answer:
Calcium tablets are needed for the bones. Together with vitamin D calcium helps prevents osteoporosis. Glucosamine is not meant for this cause.

Glucosamine does not contain any calcium. So, it is best if you continue using your calcium tablets. Make sure that your tablets also contain enough vitamin D. Or else that you spend enough time outdoors in the sun, so that your body can produce enough vitamin D.
