[QUOTE="Will Brink, post: 64338, member: 2074"] I never noticed anything from glucosamine/chondroitin and the data is contradictory at best. Some do report some benefits from them however. Fish oil, anti inflammatory such as Curcumin, Turmeric , boswellia etc and various collagen products such a Bio-Collagen, Patented UC-II, a type II collagen from chicken cartilage shown promise. But, my hypothesis per article is different: "[I]More controversial, my hypothesis has also been that many people who suffer from chronic connective tissue problems and chronic back problems are often found to have low IGF-1, and reversing that state of low IGF-1 as a treatment for these pathologies is a viable treatment. It appears the former concept – using growth factors to treat joint pathology – is getting greater attention with the scientific/medical community. The latter concept – that a deficiency in these growth factors may be the cause of their joint related problems – a much more controversial idea." [/I] My experience is, people often have low IGF-1 levels and once corrected, see real improvements. True targeted therapies of direct injections of growth factors at the site have shown re growth of connective tissue. [/QUOTE]
