You stepped wrong and wrenched your knee (ouch!), taking glucosamine can help fix that injury faster, Research in Sports Medicine shows. Injured athletes who took 1,500 milligrams of the cartilage-mending supplement a day for 28 days could flex and extend their knee 10 percent farther than those who didn't pop the pills. Not only for knees but all injuries at a joint (ankle, wrist, elbow, shoulder, etc.)

It's true! The first thing the knee doc told me was to start taking glucosamine. Wal-Mart has Schiff brand in 2000 mg doses, which was recommended by my doctor. Good stuff!
True. It seems like girl athletes usually have some trouble with their knees.
