Question: I want to start taking glucasomine supplements but I've heard that it has to be taken with chondrointin?
I've heard that in order for glucasomine to be absorbed it needs to contain chondrointin. Then someone said it had to contain chrodointin and msm. Unfortunately I remembered incorrectly and bought the glucasomine supplements that only contain msm. Now I'm wondering if it will still absorb in my system with just the msm or should I return them.

I've taken glucosamine + MSM, and also glucosamine + chondroitin, and they both seem to work about the same. It takes a while to get into your system, and it took me about 4-6 weeks before I could start feeling any results. Just remember to take it every day as the directions say and it will help.

I switched from MSM to chondroitin because I heard somewhere that MSM could be harmful in some way (I don't remember what the problem was).

Taking glucosamine supplements for the last 7 yrs.

Glucosamine and MSM reduce inflammation. The chondroitin helps rebuild cartiledge. So does type 2 collagen, or a combo. of Vitamin C, Lysine and Proline. Some people don't tolerate the sulphur component of MSM too well (stomach upset). But it's always best to take these supplements with food, and that usually prevents stomach upset.

Don't waste your money, it doesn't work.
