the claim

Glucosamine supplements lower blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes.

the verdict
CONTESTED PARTIAL
Recorded sources
1 source for · 2 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Glucosamine supplements lower blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes?

Partly. One large prospective cohort found glucosamine users had a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes, while a small trial in non-diabetic osteoarthritis patients found no significant change in fasting blood sugar, and a risk assessment lists diabetics as a group of concern. None of the placed sources directly tests whether glucosamine lowers blood sugar in people who already have type 2 diabetes.
