Glucosamine Sulphate - embarrassing side effect?

NIMAN

Anyone else take this supplement?

I was recommended it for my dodgy joints by a friend who swears it made a difference to him.

So anyway, started taking it and within a few days I found that (excuse me here) any wind passed was a lot worse than normal in terms of odour. :o:o

I got to thinking it might be the sulphate element of the tablet, anyone else have this embarrassing problem?

Fortunately I never had that problem but it is a potential side effect. It's not the sulphate alone either.

Try taking it after eating and see if that helps.

It makes my skin break out.

Farting is still funny. Never mind that.

It could also be useful.

Use the smell like you'd use smelling salts. Then a good slap in your face and you're good to go!

NIMAN

Believe me, it hits me like a slap in the face, but I ain't good to do anything for a while!

Take it before bed and your farts will keep you warm over the winter months.

I got a tip for cooking chili to include fennel seeds to offset the extra flatulence caused by beans. Perhaps drinking some fennel tea, or throwing a few fennel seeds into the next meal you cook would be worth a try?
