Biofreeze is not a cure to an underlying condition. I have read where the act of rubbing in Biofreeze gel helps. It comes in colorless now too. It is like ice according to their site except you can walk around and do your normal activities. Using an ice pack makes that not very feasible.

I agree, i think fish oil is very important. And the zyflamend is $30 for 120 pills that is 2 months which is $15 for a months supply so I don't think that is expensive, that is taking 2 pills a day.

For me, I would pay $50 for it as my improvement is that great with it. I rode a plane yesterday and never had to use my fan, that is quite simply a miracle for me. I sat in the airport almost 8 hours with no burning whatsoever. Miracle. The zyflamend is a saving grace for me. My trip in the airport down BEFORE I had gotten the zyflamend was awful. I had to use my portable fan at my feet on the plane. Results are the proof for me.

I am so happy. Last night after coming home to cold and snow I took a bath to warm up...I didn't even use my fan afterwards. Even my husband said it was amazing the difference.

I do take Omega 3 Fish oil. I also have Biofreeze and both gel and roll on. So you take Krill oil? Is it suppose to be better or cheaper?

I know MrsD likes krill but my own research swayed my opinion that there are some negatives with krill and after almost a year of reading and asking people and talking to many nutrition experts at various stores I chose fish oil instead, though I do believe where it comes from is very important.

It is a subject that has many variables and everyone has a different opinion on fish vs krill.

I moved to Krill oil for personal reasons. It is a highly solubilized type of EPA and DHA... so less is needed because of its better absorption. It also has an antioxidant naturally in it (astaxanthin).

I use 2 MegaReds a day.

And this is a new paper:
from http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22923017

and this is interesting too:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23876229
Phospholipids is what Krill oil has.

Fish oil or Krill oil...it is a personal choice. But both help with inflammation.

I will have to read all your links. I just use Kirkland brand Omega 3's Fish oil.

I sent for Zyflamed, and both my husband and I took 2 a day for about a week. It upset our stomachs, and caused a great deal of bloat and gas....very uncomfortable. I wish I could send the rest of it to someone who would use it. It's a big bottle with about 120 capsules left.

I tried the dried cherries, and really like them. I have them in my oatmeal in the morning.

If you are not use to oregano it even says on the instructions to start off slowww with only 1 pill a day.

I use to take oregano pure form years ago so I knew I could tolerate it. But everyone is different.

Sorry you can't take it, as it's been a miracle for me and I just started my son on it yesterday for his knee, old basketball injury causing pain again.

As was recommended; I started by taking only one a day. Didn't notice any problem.
Shortly afterwards was preparing for Colonoscopy so had gone off; but will start up again today.

Flaxseed is also a good source of omega-3's. They also contain lignans and fiber.
