New research reported by ScienceDaily suggests glucosamine, a widely used supplement for joint pain and arthritis, may be associated with faster progression of Alzheimer's disease.

Why now: A widely taken everyday supplement being linked to a feared disease like Alzheimer's is alarming health news.
