Glucosamine might stunt clavicle growth

[Interested]

A lot of users take glucosamine to retain their morning height, however there might be a downside to that if you are under 25 years old.

Research shows that the clavicle continues growth up until age 25:

The growth of the clavicle is primarily regulated by growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factors (IGFs). GH and IGFs stimulate the proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes in the growth plates, resulting in bone growth.


Unfortunately, studies also show that glucosamine might inhibit IGF-I:

So it's possible that by taking glucosamine, it will effect IGF-I, which might also effect the clavicle growth negatively under the age of 25.

i think @thereallegend found an alternative to glucosamine with collagen and something else. i forgot exactly what it was though

What’s the best way to increase IGF-1 and HGH without using the real deal? Would peptides and Mk help ?

Honestly, I don't know. Would have to do indepth research on that

Megadosing collagen gives the same relief on joints that glucosamine does

Any known risks on megadosing collagen?

This doesn't help us much...

No, you can take up to 15g a day. The benefits for bone kick in after 5g.

what about chondroitin

what about chondroitin

haven't found any study that says chondroitin inhibits IGF-I.

Does chondroitin do the same exact thing? I've seen ppl say yes and some ppl say no

In terms of stunting clavicle growth, probably no.

In terms of retaining morning height, also probably no.
