We had a discussion on glucosamine & chondroitin several months back. My
wife and I had been taking it (Costco brand) for a year or so and saw our
joint pains eliminated. You stated that it was a placebo effect and that
studies show the stuff is useless.

After reading more studies I thought maybe you were right...........so we
stopped taking it 2 or 3 weeks ago.

Guess what? My joint pains are back, most especially in my knees. I asked
my wife this morning if she noticed anything different and she also noticed
joint pains where there were none before while taking the G&C.

Maybe the stuff does not work for some folks but it definitely works for us.

I am heading out to Costco this morning to buy a bottle of the stuff. After
taking it for a month or so I will report back to let you know if the joint
pains went away again.
