First of all does it realy work, 2'nd does it just prevent arthritis, or does it heal arthritis. Also, mention any other arthritis remedies

Yes. Glucosamine and chondroitin together help quite a bit. Mild, low impact exercise, like swimming or exercises in water are very good also. Another good supplement is fish oil... cod liver oil, for example. Live long and prosper.
'Nuff said?

Based on what I've read, there are people who swear by it, though the medical literature doesn't back up their claims. So does it really work? In people's minds, maybe.
Based on the assumption it does work, then taking it should both prevent (taking it before the onset of arthritis) and healing it (after the onset of arthritis).
People also take chondroitin. Any COX-2 inhibitor will relieve the pain associated with arthritis.

Imagine for a moment your arthritis completely vanishing right now.
If, in a moment, your pain and stiffness melted away. And your joints all of a sudden functioned like a well-oiled machine.
Like a magic wand was waived, you'd be able to jump up from your chair and run around the room like a kid.
And imagine that you'd never have to suffer as much as a pinch of arthritis stiffness or pain ever again.
I know this sounds impossible right now, but bear with me, because sometimes miracles happen.
It was a gift from a woman on the other side of the world. From the kindness of her heart, she took pity on my suffering and taught me how to completely reverse my arthritis.
Today, I want to do the same for you!

It absolutely works. I know of a woman in her late 70's early 80's who is still very active both socially and academically because of using glucosomine. She was in extreme pain before using glucosomine and chondrotnine. I'm not sure of the spelling of that other word. But she uses them both and is now very active.

I think the amount of pure Glucosamine they usually suggest is 1500mg. Glucosamine can come as two different forms Glucosamine hydrocloride (1500mg of this type equals 1500mg of pure glucosamine)or glucosamine potassium chloride complex (1500mg of this type = 750mg of pure glucosamine.) The complex type is better absorded. Im not sure how much Chondroiton they usually suggest.
