A recent very small study has found that there is a link between taking glucosamine tablets and insulin resistance in people who are obese. Increased insulin resistance means that your body does not respond to insulin and your blood sugars go up and is a factor in type 2 Diabetes. Normal weight individuals showed no changes in their insulin resistance. Glucosamine tablets are often taken for osteoarthritis. Although this was a small study that needs to be confirmed by further research, it does highlight the need to be aware of all the potential effects of the supplements you are taking.
