Glucosamine is an important building block for articular lining cartilage. If the endogenous glucosamine production is not adequate the body can also obtain glucosamine from food. However, there are only few food sources rich in glucosamine. It naturally occurs in larger quantities in cartilage and the tough parts of crustaceans; such sources are usually not regarded as food.
It is still uncertain how glucosamine works, but in general there seem to be two different effects. Firstly, it provides the substrate for the production of glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans
(like chondroitin sulphate and hyaluronan). Secondly, glucosamine possesses an anabolic stimulus:
it stimulates the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans and collagen.
