Glucosamine helped my sore knees and ankles..a bit..

But it also gave me horribly foul gas...I mean weapon of mass destruction foul..

So I had to give it up.

Yup..

"What side effects may I notice from using chondroitin; glucosamine?
Side effects that you should report to your prescriber or health care professional as soon as possible:

constipation or diarrhea

difficulty sleeping

drowsiness

hair loss

headache

loss of appetite

swelling of the face, feet or ankles

skin rash or itching

stomach pain

Side effects that usually do not require medical attention (report to your prescriber or health care professional if they continue or are bothersome):

gas

nausea

upset stomach"

It wasn't so much the...uhh...quantity, it was the stench..

Did you try a different brand to see if it was something that particular company added?
