Anyone ever try osteo-biflex of other related products for osteo arthritis? Looking for recommendations. Most of the reviews of these products on the internet, also sell the products, so doesn't seem unbiased.

I tried glucosamine for my osteoarthritis but found no difference in pain or improved function. A neighbor swears it has improved his knee OA greatly. There have been several studies looking at the efficacy of glucosamine products. Here is one from JAMA: http://jama.jamanetwork.com/article.aspx?volume=283&issue=11&page=1469

I tried it, my dog tried it. Neither of us had any improvement, and it can raise blood sugar.
