A member asked:
How are glucosamine sulfate and n-acetyl glucosamine different?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very little: Glucosamine exists as a chemical pair with an oppositely charged molecule. Sulfate or an acetyl group can fill this roll. Nutritionally, the glucosamine is what matters so there is really little difference.
