Does the glucosamine in The AVOSOY® Plus or AVOSOY® Complete affect blood sugar or Diabetes?
A study of a glucosamine/chondroitin product had no effect on the blood sugar of diabetic subjects compared to placebo over 90 days of treatment. No elevation in blood sugar was noted in a three-year study of glucosamine versus placebo. It is unlikely that AVOSOY® Plus will effect blood sugar or cholesterol levels. Finally, a completely separate study on individuals without diabetes showed that glucosamine had no effect on either blood sugar or a longer-term measure of blood sugar control called hemoglobin A1C.
