Are MSM and Glucosamine Really Good for Your Joints? #768

[maxinpains]

MSM is a magic.

[BlueReishiMan]

I just bought a Kilo of MSM and I am taking 6 tablespoons a day. I have already noticed a big reduction in my back pain. After I visit the chiropractor I am normally in alot of pain but I think the pain is much less with this high dose. Also my skin is fascinatingly smooth all over and the beautifying effects I think are definitely real. I think I am in love with this product. Send me a message if anyone wants to know more as I hope to cure my back pain with it like David Wolfe did

I've recently purchased Glucosomine & Chondroitin (with MSM) in liquid form from a Better Health store in Grosse Pointe, Michigan.

gnc makes a great product called triflex that combines the three

[dustinhilton]

[kingrotty]

Yes I used MSM and it worked exelent for me! I get my Glucosamine from bone broth every day. :)

My husband (who's 25) is always in pain. I'm going to start him on MSM today and see what results he gets.

[littleitaly96]

I am in month two of of taking all of these products. I noticed some mild relief as of now, but from what i am told i still have a few more months for full effects.

[hyperjay712]

I have taken msm and just like he said in a week or two my joint pain gets much better.

[hyperjay712]

Good stuff! but man he talks soft I have to turn my comp. way up

[1964parakeet]

I would guess, now that I know more about the quality of products out there, that the MSM I took wasn't the best. It didn't seem to have the promised results.. I found that the the G&C worked better for me but since I've been on a high raw diet I haven't been experiencing the inflammation and discomfort in my hips and knees. However, it sounds like MSM has other great properties so I'm considering adding it in. As always, thanks for the info!! Much appreciation for you both!

MSM is awesome! Did a lot of shoveling of snow this winter in NY. I do not have back problems but would be crippled for a week from muscle and joint pain from shoveling. I had talked to my friend who has 30 plus years holistic nutritionist knowledge and she suggested and when younger had taken up to 6,0000 mg/day. I did that 2,000 3x a day and had no pain at all like I had taken a pain killer. My hair also stopped falling out which has been an on going hormonal/ adrenal issue.

I take about 7 grams of MSM daily - I have absolutely no joint pain! I use to have really bad knees and no I can bend, run, and walk for hours with no pain. MSM rocks!

[rayme4raw]

I've taken 1500 mg glucosamine HCL a day for my arthritis, it really works. It's not an instant product, sometimes you have to take it every day for a couple of months before you see pain relief. I've had a ton of people tell me that it doesn't work, they either didn't take enough or they didn't take it long enough is what I found after asking them a few questions.

[WinWinSituations]

MSM is awesome. awaiting a pound of the stuff at the moment!

[Kissadilla]

I'm taking glucosamine/MSM and they got rid of my sore knees from running! Took a couple weeks to kick in, though.

[aztekwarrior23]

You guys need to try cissus quadrangularis.......it's by far better than any other joint supplement i've tried, I've made it a staple....best part, it's all natural.

[emilykbisignano]

My herbalist aunt recommended MSM for my knee problems. When I move my leg normally, I can feel a grinding sensation when I feel on top of my knee cap. I'm only 25 and I've had no injuries or broken bones! I can also really feel the weather changing too and can't stand on my feet for an extended period of time. It really kicks my hind end sometimes!

[korvspades]

MSM is great.. I never had any problems with my joints, but when i took MSM in quite high dosages my joints became much softer.. my skin became firmer.. Note(first time i took MSM was in small dosages and i felt no difference in my body)

[rayme4raw]

@korvspades How high a dose? I have a ton of MSM that I should probably use up.

[korvspades]

@rayme4raw 5-6 gram a day was my maximum dose.. when i ate just 0.5 - 1 grams i didnt notice anything..

[TrueChristianDOTcom]

I've noticed an improvement with MSM, Melatonin, and Vitamin C, which I've known about already. Good stuff!

[idahodad1]

I use Glucosamine daily for one problem knee and I have noticed that I have times with no knee pain, other days I experience pain but that only last for a day or two.

Before Glucosamine and chondroitin, I had pain all the time. I can kneal on a hard floor or ground now without knee pads and find myself kneeling without them where before knee pads were manditory or I was in trouble.

[hunnypie80]

I use MSM. Love it!

[RedHawkHealing]

I love MSM. I don't have any miracle stories, but when I take MSM I feel more in balance, more alkaline, and less stressed. I don't think MSM is "supposed" to have any anti-stress properties, but it certainly makes me feel good!
