Ok, I'd like to share this collagen product I've been taking for about 2 yrs now. A friend put me on to it as her friends told her about it. There are 1000's of reviews online and I'm realizing now that I haven't been taking enough...suggested dose is 2T two times per day, but people do take more depending on their joint conditions. One lady on another health group takes 9T per day and claims she has no stiffness in her knees now. She worked up to this dose...I'm going to start moving up and see if I can reduce this knee stiffness and if back stiffness is reduced, even better.
http://greatlakesgelatin.com/consumer/CollagenFAQ.php Just about every online supplement company sells it and health food stores, I think...never looked for it there as online is always less cost. I know you will all do your research. C |

Is this gelatin that you're eating, Caroline?
edited to add: I couldn't find what it was made from but found it. ick, I don't eat gelatin. Even when I need something to use as a setting agent I used to use agar agar and that's probably bad I don't know. |

Lara, it's a Pure Protein Collagen Hydrolysate and they mention Gelatin on the front of can. It contains 20 amino acids and as I said I don't think I was taking enough as the lightbulb went off in the head today. I'm doing ALL I can to keep my knee moving and do no surgery. It's a beef protein. C

Lara, the hydrolyzed granules dissolve in hot/cold liquids and NEVER thicken. It's the process. One would never know it's a gelatin, but your inside body. People use it in liquids, foods, you name it...I use it in my morning coffee and later in the day in water.

I read about that on the website.
I'll leave that one for you, Caroline. Each to their own. I couldn't take that if you paid me. |

Lara, yes it's true we all pick and choose how we try to do our healing. It's all good no matter. Just sharing what seems to help a lot of people I've come across. I'd love not to work with anything but I'd be flat out otherwise.
