Hey fellas,
Just wondering what your experience with Glucosamine, more specifically Glucoasmine with Chondroitin is on joint pain etc.
We all know it's a hotly debated topic, but from what I have found is that more often than not people find that Glucosamine alone doesn't do a lot in terms of healing joint pain and stiffness but Glucosamine in combination with Chondroitin (and even MSM) works wonders. I have always been under the impression that you need to have both to achieve anything other than placebo or a mild healing effect at best.
I have started supplementing it to see if it helps in terms of my knee pain that I get during and after squatting (weak glutes play a major role in this which I am working on), occasional shoulder pain when doing BB bench especially incline and just for all round joint support. I have a blend of 1500mg Glucosamine HCl and 100mg Chondroitin Sulfate (this being a little on the low side IIRC but it's all I have for the time being) + 50mg Proline and 200mg Ginger extract and am going to give it a shot and see how things go over the long-term.
So what's your opinions and experiences on it, yay or nay? Doses and when effects were noticed would be good too.
Cheers,
Staunch
