    Sore joints had for multiple years

    Hey there I'm asking the question for my dad. he use to be a bodybuilder back in the day 10-15 years ago and then had to stop due to work. Over the years He has started to get pains in his joints, elbows, knees, fingers etc. It's not arthritis, have been to the doctors multiple times over the years and nothing seems to be helping. Only info he can give ne is that when he use to life he never took anything for his joints so that could have aggravated the injury. His tried acupuncture, physio and a few others.

    Anyone with info on products to try or light to shed on this topic please do so.

    Thanks guys!

    there are various joint support products out there bro. Try some and see which ones work/help him. I use primaforce cissus and it helps and is easy on the wallet. Fish oil is a must as well

    what dosage?

    I take 6-8 grams a day.

    You can also try products with msm, glucosomin (SP?), etc.

    5 grams a day. give it a month to kick in. very inexpensive.

    Good luck

    I've tried it several times. my experience is that not as effective as MSM. additionally, much more expensive than MSM. you can get a few pounds of MSM for $35. I just checked, and glucosamine is something like, uh, well, i just checked for the first time in a while, and I was able to quickly find a kilo for $35
