Supplements

Gimpy

Hello all, I am new here so am probably asking a question which has been raised before.

I have osteoarthritis in a few joints I.e. hip,knees and wrists and was attracted by the possibility of using supplements but am a bit wary of online claims. Has anyone any knowledge which would be of assistance to me?

thank you.

Some of the questions and answers are a tad old but it proves that your question is one that has been considered for over time and is well worth asking again. Many of our members have experience of taking supplements and I hope they will give you their advice. At the end of the day it may be trial and error to find out what suits you personally.
