Hi Susan,
I take brown broken flax seed. The oil content in the seed is 20 %. The rest of the seed are mostly fiber. Now I'm not really sure, but I expect most of the active ingredients are in the oil. Then the oil is 5 times stronger than the seed.
I stopped taking glucosamine because I read it decreases insulin sensitivity. In three years of taking glucosamine, my Waist Hip Ratio went up from 0.85 to 0.95. Now it's back to 0.88.
