Glucosamine :an amino acid that is naturally produced in the body. Glucosamine is a precursor to a molecule used in the formation and repair of cartilage. Treatment with glucosamine is based on the idea that oral consumption of the substance may increase to rate of formation of new cartilage by providing more of the necessary building blocks. The recommended dose of glucosamine in 1500mg each day for one to two months. Ongoing treatment if often continued if results are favorable.

Also look into Chondroitin, helps in Aiding the destroying of cartilage. take it at 800mg a day (400mg twice a day) and if you stack is with glucosamine, i hear the results are great.

and of course flax seed oil

get the glucosamine & chondroiton together the combo works the best but you should know that depending on the person it could take up to 6 weeks to start working
