JOINT SORENESS IS A PAIN…EVERYWHERE!

Q. I am 44 yrs. old and love to ride bike and swim. Lately, my knees and elbows have been hurting! What will keep me moving without breaking the bank?

A. The last time I wrote about joint pain, I talked about Glucosamine Sulfate and related products. I am still sold on long term usage of “QUALITY” Glucosamine combined with synergistic, complementary products. I know it is somewhat controversial but I’ve seen it work exceptionally well, too many times to doubt the efficacy and results. The following are some product recommendations with and without Glucosamine that will keep you on your bike and won’t break the bank:

1. Buried Treasure JOINT EASE: This is a liquid (16 oz) Glucosamine formula containing over 13 powerful ingredients. It’s an effective liquid base containing important minerals to promote joint mobility and connective tissue re-building. Sells for between $25.-$35. per bottle.
2. Bio Nutrition JOINT WELLNESS: This has no Glucosamine in the formula. They use Type 2 Collagen as a formulation base. This is designed to strengthen ligaments and tendons, reduce pain and discomfort caused by inflammation. 60 caps. sell for between $29.-$35. per bottle.
3. Tiger Balm PAIN RELIEVING PATCH: This is a ventilated, hydrogel patch designed for long lasting release and comfort. This is a topically applied analgesic patch that sticks to the applied area. This has either 4 or 5 patches per box and sells for between $6.-$9.

While at home follow these up with frequent ice packs applied to the aching joint. I would do either #1 or #2 (not both at same time) and use #3 anytime.
