There is some preliminary evidence suggesting that glucosamine, in doses used to treat osteoarthritis, may alter levels of blood sugar, insulin and/or hemoglobin A1C (a test that measures how well blood sugar has been controlled during the previous three months) in people with diabetes or insulin resistance.

Other studies, however, haven't found an effect. Until we know more, people with diabetes or hypoglycemia and those who are taking medication or supplements that affect blood sugar should use caution and only take glucosamine under the supervision of a qualified health professional.

You may be one of the unlucky ones.
