Glucosamine Sulphate tablets and cod liver oil can help regenerate soft tissue
actually the one double blind research done w/ glucosamine showed that it was as effective as nsaids in relieving pain of osteoarthritis in the knee. it did not address the issue of regeneration of articular cartilage, which is the tissue posing a problem in osteoarthritis.
i would like to see links to studies for 'regeneration of soft tissue', as i've never seen any.
