Hi Mduvall,
to NT.
I guess first I might ask this question on the
Vitamins, Nutrients, Herbs and Supplements forum, and spend some time
searching the NT archives. You could also Google:
supplement connective tissue Look for credible medical sites rather than those selling supplements, e.g.

We've been taking a
Gluosamine/Chondroitin/MSM supplement (which is one that's supposedly good for connective tissue) for years because of a lot of hype (including some from our doctors) but recently I came across this, which is giving me reason to delve a bit deeper (and maybe save some $ on something that may be doing nothing).

I guess whatever you try, it shouldn't hurt to run it by your own doc/s first.
