The glucosamine that is both the best quality, best priced and had free delivery is from healthspan.
It is also from plant sources.
My dad has been using it for many years with decent results. If you are a young person with no arthritis etc I doubt you feel any difference though.
If you want to reduce stress on your knees, strengthen your leg muscles(ensuring balance) and perhaps try cushioned shoes. Riding bikes is fine.
If you ever have to squat or jump for any reason, make sure to put weight on heels and not forefoot which puts strain on knee.
