A variety of complementary health approaches have been studied for osteoarthritis, including some dietary supplements. Here’s what the current science says: - Despite extensive research, it’s still uncertain whether glucosamine and chondroitin have a meaningful impact on osteoarthritis symptoms.
- Not enough research has been done on methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) to show whether it’s helpful.
- Studies of S-adenosyl-L-methionine for osteoarthritis symptoms have had conflicting results.
- Studies of avocado-soybean unsaponifiables (ASUs) and the herb Boswellia serrata found that they may produce slight improvements in joint pain and function; however, the improvements were so small that patients might not consider them meaningful.
