Anyone read the Glucosamine Chondroiten (Joint Supplements) report on consumerlab.com?

http://www.consumerlab.com/results/gluco.asp
I can't afford $30 just to find out one piece of info. Any doctors or consumers here which brands of Joint Health suppliments are worth the money?

name in report:
Advocare Nature Made
Bronson Nature's Plus
Country Life NSI
Cosamin Nutri Vet
Cosequin Pharmanex
CVS Puritan's Pride
Doctor's Best Rottapharm
Drinkables Schiff
HydraJoint Symtec
GLC Swanson
GNC TriMedica
Joint Max Twinlab
Karuna Vitamin World
Kirkland Walgreens
Maxi Health Weil

Most of those are good companies. The best way is to do some research and ask the companies what rating they have received from the GMP or USP.

The major problem with Chondroitin is that there is no industry standard for testing procedures of it. Due to the different testing procedures, there are some methods that may test one batch as being what the bottle says, while one of the other methods may test it as only having 3-5% of what the bottle says.

Until the general industry sits down and decides on exactly 1 testing procedure, there may be listings that pop up in Consumer Reports because of it, even though the company lists them at 100% potency.

Aside from that, Glucosamine, Chondroiting, MSM, Hyaluronic Acid, Tart Cherry, and many other products are very good for joint health.

Pure Encapsulations Glucosamine+Chondroitin With Mn 360 Vegetarian Capsules
from $ 125.90
 
Enhanced cartilage synthesis and antioxidant support This convenient formula combines two of the most important cartilage building blocks, glucosamine and chondroitin, with manganese ascorbate for enhanced connective tissue support. Glucosamine promotes the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans, such as chondroitin sulfate. The primary structural compound of articular cartilage, chondroitin sulfate also helps to block the activity of degradative enzymes. Together, glucosamine and chondroitin may provide synergistic support for healthy hyaluronic acid content and synovial fluid. The trace mineral manganese plays a key role in supporting glycosaminoglycan and mucopolysaccharide production and encourages the antioxidant activity of superoxide dismutase. Ascorbate is a vital nutrient for proper collagen formation and also serves as an antioxidant.

Andrew Lessman Glucosamine with Chondroitin - 600 Capsules
USD 134.90
 
Andrew Lessman Glucosamine with Chondroitin Andrew Lessman's Glucosamine with Chondroitin delivers the optimum potencies and ideal forms (All Sulfate and Sodium-Free) of the two key ingredients for the maintenance and repair of healthy joint tissue. This unique formula begins with clinically-established levels and ideal forms of the two most important and well-researched natural ingredients for the maintenance of joint health: Glucosamine Sulfate (1,500 mg) and Chondroitin Sulfate (1,200 mg). Glucosamine and Chondroitin have been the subject of thousands of published articles and extensive international recognition; however, they are not medicines to treat joint ailments, but more importantly represent the vital molecules that comprise the structure of all our joints - healthy or not. Glucosamine Sulfate is always the first line of defense for joint tissues, but unlike ordinary products, we refuse to use cheaper, unproven Glucosamine HCI (Hydrochloride). We only use the form of Glucosamine established in the scientific literature - Glucosamine Sulfate. Also unique is our special form of Sodium-Free Chondroitin Sulfate, which eliminates the Sodium present in other joint products. Our special Calcium Chondroitin Sulfate eliminates the risks of Sodium and instead provides the benefits of 80 mg of essential Calcium. Sadly, typical joint products use inferior sources of both Glucosamine and Chondroitin, which do not possess the research-established benefits of Glucosamine Sulfate and Chondroitin Sulfate. In short, both Glucosamine and Chondroitin, along with the Sulfur from their Sulfate forms, provide three essential structural ingredients that are the vital "building blocks" or the very "bricks and mortar" of our joints. By providing these essential structural molecules in their optimum Sulfate forms and at their ideal potencies, we deliver maximum benefits to joint structure, health and function. No other body part endures more daily abuse than our joints and Glucosam

Glucosamine HCl and Chondroitin 360 VegiCaps
USD 132.80
 
Pure Encapsulations products may only be shipped within the United States.Shellfish-free glucosamine and chondroitin combination*This formula provides convenient and simple dual-strength support for healthy joint motility and function. Glucosamine HCl is manufactured in a proprietary process to produce a shellfish-free glucosamine supplement. Its production involves corn fermentation, which produces chitosan as a byproduct. The chitosan is extracted and processed to achieve glucosamine HCl. There is no allergenicity, as no corn DNA is present in the fermentation product. Studies have indicated that glucosamine HCl has the ability to support healthy cartilage integrity, in part by maintaining healthy matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) enzyme activity. In other studies, formulations containing glucosamine HCl and chondroitin sulfate have suggested positive effects on joint mobility and

Life Extension Glucosamine Chondroitin Capsules -- 100 Capsules
USD 28.50
 
A naturally occurring amino sugar synthesized in the body from L-glutamine and glucose, glucosamine stimulates the manufacture of glycosaminoglycans, important components of the cartilage needed for healthy joints. Aging people seem to lose their ability to produce a sufficient amount of glucosamine, and no food sources are available. Commercial sources of glucosamine from the exoskeleton of certain shellfish are available as glucosamine sulfate, glucosamine hydrochloride, and N-acetyl-glucosamine. The sulfated form may most effectively incorporate sulfur into the cartilage.Glycosaminoglycans and glycoproteins allow cells in tissues to hold together. They are necessary for the construction and maintenance of virtually all connective tissues and lubricating fluids in the body. In particular, a combination of N-acetyl-glucosamine bound to glucuronic acid, is polymerized to make the joint lubricant, hyaluronic acid.Chondroitin sulfates provide the structural components of joint cartilage and facilitate the entry of glucosamine into joints. Chondroitin sulfates also inhibit free radical enzymes. Like glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate attracts water into the cartilage matrix and helps stimulate the production of cartilage.Recent research suggests that chondroitin in combination with glucosamine sulfate has a positive effect on subchondral bone structural changes and may help augment repair processes following accessory joint tissue injury. These important joint health agents may help maintain healthy joint structure and function, and reduce joint discomfort and stiffness.
