Will taking glucosamine make my nose get larger?
I know this may sound silly, but will taking glucosamine supplements possibly make my nose get larger? I don’t want it to. The nose has cartilage in it, and glucosamine builds cartilage. Should I be worried?

Well, it’s not a silly question and the previous poster is right. It doesn’t acutally *build* cartilige; it supports your body’s repair process. So it shouldn’t cause anything to grow larger. (If it did, your joints would also enlarge and we’ve never seen evidence of that happening.)
It sounds like you may have arthritis. If you want to manage it naturally, you may find the following helpful. Best Wishes.

The answer is no. What are you taking it for?
No it won’t. Glucosamine is for strengthening the cartilage in your joints,and promotes healthy cartilage not growth of cartilage.
