Hey Dana

Glucosimine Sulfate Really help me--

Important-
Do Not get GS that says
made from-- HCL --on label
cheaper but not as good -
not even close

GS with Chondrotin is OK if you have
the money --

You can get Chondrotin from eating
chicken wings -legs --

GS is the Most Important-
but GS with MSM can sometimes be better --
try both --

I am 100% sure that if I had not taken GS
that I would be in a wheel chair-

My joints feel perty good now-

GS helps with tendons and muscles also -

when I first started taking GS a
bottle of 60 pills- cost $75

Worth Every penny --

Now much cheaper --Jay--

I personally use it multiple times a week. When my joints are really upset, it helps relieve the throbbing pain. I recommend it, and my llmd says its o.k.

I just 'Googled' "chondroitin" and found it can be derived from cow's trachea.

Now, next question.

Can Mad Cow be transmitted by this.

Oh, well.

Then, I'm screwed.

I read somewhere that Glucosamine feeds Lyme.

I'll try to find the reference...

I feel pretty bad without my Osteo -Bi-Flex G/C

I buy it at wally world and it has an x-ray of a hand on it!!

You have to take it awhile to see the good it does.

I tried a different cheaper brand once,,,took just a few days and found out I "needed" my good old brand that works for "ME".

YIKES,,,it was serious,,,drove about 30 miles to daughters Vollyball game,,,on cheapo my thumbs jumped out of their socket 10-15 times doing nothing but keeping the steering wheel straight,,,painful,at best!!

Ive used it and it made me very sick, I kept at it and I just kept getting sick from it.

I then read that it can make lyme worse, but read on here that many use it, so I dont know about this then, I just know, that I was soooo sick from it, thought it was healing crisis, so kept at it, I had one good day, then just

bad bad bad days, so stopped it.

I felt like bugs were eatting my bones, that is how bad I felt, it made me feel actually like I was getting worse, I have problems with supps though, when I am really sick, when I am better, I can take most things.

In the Babesia book by Dr. S., he mentions that Glucosamine may kill babesia. It undermines the trophozoites in malaria and babesia. Dosage unknown.

Glucosamine has always made me sick. I've tried repeatedly to take it but couldn't. I'm on babesia treatment now and I think glucosamine was a problem for me because it kills babesia and that was making me feel sick.
