I missed my home workout for over a month due to knee injury. Early July at Guardian store, I stumbled upon the shelf area for joint pain meds and the like. Others meds are expensive to me. I ended up buying the Guardian's Effervescent Glucosamine 1500mg. The claim, "helps reduce joint stiffness and aids joint mobility." I did only a quick research while in store and learned that Glucosamine helped in joint stiffness etc and the recommended dosage is 1500mg per day. I wanted to try first so I just bought the 15 tabs. Wow, it took only a few days...no pain on my knees!! It's gone!! I take it everyday and the lemon flavor is good.
I am still lazy to do home workout, as I plan to do low impact only. Then this past few days, I tried only few minutes of planking :-P. My knee hurts while doing it but afterwards, there's no pain even when going down stairs.
I've read other brands efficacy. However, I also learned that when they stop taking med, the pain comes back. Anyways, I still plan to buy another batch, same brand. I will just play it by ear.
All I need now is motivation to get back on working out, take advantage of the pain free :-D
Hay, why it's so hard to workout!!! Wahaha!!
