Took glucosamine and chondroitin for some time, also. May have been coincidence, but I did start to feel somewhat better. Haven’t taken them for several years, and haven’t noticed any change, so -— the jury’s out...
On the other hand, I’ve changed my lifestyle and lost 120 lbs, keeping it off. Between that and eating more healthful foods, maybe that has more bearing on feeling better than vitamins and supplements.
The jury’s out. I know - I already said that.
Good luck to you!
Congratulations on your weight loss, and on keeping it off.
I had a 100lb loss some years ago, but over eight, nine years, it has all come back. Maybe lightening can strike twice. Hope springs eternal.
Having bad knees, I started taking glucosamine/chondroitin some time ago. At that time my right knee was already gone and I had to get an implant, but continued to take the stuff. During that time, I had x-ray done on the really bad knee and the not so bad left knee. After three years, with a check-up had another x-ray done and the cartilage in the left knee had improved. Later I had to do a partial replacement anyway. Now, many years later, my knee is really hurting me and I just had a stem-cell injection done. It is a miracle.
