***Joint Recovery***

I'm old and the joints are aching. What joint recovery supplement do you use and can you tell a difference?

Glucosamine does it for me.

Now I'm trying glucosamine and chondoitin, 500mg + 200mg, two times a day. No pain.

But I wasn't having pain with glucosamine only 750mg two times a day.

Somebody told me that over 500mg didn't make a difference, but I never saw a study concluding something about dose-related effiency of glucosamine.

The only thing I'm sure of is that glucosamine does make a difference for me and many people in joint recovery and pain.

I like Sportlabs Joint Relief. It's got both glucosamine and Chondroitin in it. I find the two together work better than just Glucosamine alone.
If you really want a strong joint formula, throw some MSM in there as well.

Can I tell the difference when I'm not on it? Big time!!!!

shark cartilage if you want to dish out the cash for it, they garatee it will work or money back on most brands of it. I have really bad joints (runs inn the family) and i use glucosamine at 1500mgs a day and ibuprofein if needed and i feel no pain anymore at all.

I use glucosomine, chondroitin, MSM, and deca durabolin.

For me just 500mg a day of glucosamine do the job.

deca helped while i was on it but once i came off my joints were worse than ever.
