One possibility is that the glucosamine hydrochloride used in GAIT doesn't work as well as the glucosamine sulfate used in most earlier studies (and found in most supplements). One of the outcomes of the study showed that the response rate to the combination of glucosamine hydrochloride and chondroitin sulfate in those study participants with moderate to severe knee pain was 79.
