Glucosamine

Think you have to take it with cod liver oil/omega 3. I've heard good things but it is very expensive. Consult in a health food shop/with your GP would be my advice.

Glucosomine Sulfate works somewhat , although having tried hundreds of suppliments Sierrasil is easily the best product I have ever used for joint pain. It WORKS WELL AND FAST! Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Make sure you wear good shock absorbing trainers and if possible good sorbothane heel pads, the shock absorbency will really help your knees, have you had any steroid injections yet, because they can help settle things down and slow down the wear and tear process.

You probably won't believe a word of this, I'm not sure I do either, but my nan maintains that one of her mates actually sprays WD40 on her knees every morning.

And she says it works! :shock: :? :lol:
