JUNE 2006 ISSUE OF CR #1 RATED, WHAT MORE CAN I SAY.
My mom has a knee problem and after 2 months taking 2 pills a day, she can know take upstairs, walk with no pain or restriction!
It’s a little miracle!
This is my first review on Amazon, even though I’ve purchased dozens of things. The only reason I felt compelled to review this product is because it relates to health, which I feel is incredibly important. I am an avid rock climber, and as such, I put a lot of stress on my hands. Last year, I developed a ligament injury in my ring fingers which caused me to have to take almost six months off before it healed. This year, things were going great, until that familiar pain started up again, this time in my middle fingers. I was terrified that I was going to be sidelined for another six months or more, which for anyone who climbs, is intolerable. I read in Climbing Magazine about Glucosamine/Chondroitin and how effective it can be for some people, so I bought this product. I’ve been taking it super-consistently [one pill in the morning after breakfast, one at night after dinner] for about six weeks now, and I feel amazing! Last night I went to the gym and had perhaps my best climbing day ever, I was cranking super hard on tiny holds, something that normally puts my fingers in pain for days. Today, I don’t even feel like I cranked hard last night. They’re a bit sore, but with that good soreness that makes me think they’ll get stronger. Anyway, I’m ranting by this point, but for $30, if you’ve got ligament or tendon related issues, especially inflammation, I recommend this product wholeheartedly. Oh, and if you have a problem with big pills, my recommendation is to suck it up and take them anyway… I mean, there’s worse things in life, right?
