Glucosamine/MSM/chondroitin - less than £14.99 for 90 tabs off Marc - I have broken both my knees x 1 wrists x 2 each and am getting on a bit these are the bomb (for me), take about 2-3 weeks to get into the system then drop to 1 or 2 a day (from 2 a day)an your laughing.

Seems to me your warranty has expired Si If not you'd better demand a new set of joints as the current ones are not doing what it says on the tin!

I'm a bit skeptical about supplements.
I twisted my knee bad a wee over one year ago at BJJ. The reason why I haven't trained since (it was in Sept/Oct 2008. Tried to go back in March last year but didn't go so well!) and I still feel it if I don't place my leg all too well for a while (for eg. at the cinema). Wonder if any joints supplements would have done anything to prevent this...

I've stopped taking gluco/condroitin. I had been taking it for a very long time and didn't get any benefit from them. But then I am very old and me legs would have fallen off any hoo. I carry them around in a co op shopping bag now.
