Glucosamine in Orange Juice

Quote

“An 8oz. glass of Minute Maid Active has 750 milligrams of glucosamine, to ”help protect healthy joints,” as the label says. Only one problem: in the largest study done so far, it didn’t.

That’s one reason why the word “arthritis” doesn’t appear on the label. Instead, the carton sticks to the structure-or-function claim. Since it doesn’t mention a disease, it requires no proof.”
