What I really wanted to pass on was the miracle repair / maintenance program for the joints etc. And that is Glucosamine/Chondroitin. Helps re-build cartilage and ligaments. All that strong connective stuff. It also promotes a certain elasticity to everything pertinent. I've noticed a great difference with the stretching, it helps the muscles and their connectors, retain the effects of stretching and not snap back into a hardened state. Must be diligent to really reap the rewards. Powder drink form best absorbed in the body, and easy 1st thing in the AM. Get the orange flavour, it's Tang just like momma used to do it.
Hi guys,
I've been on the cinematography.com site a few years now and have always been fascinated by this site but, I'll admit, a little intimidated by the degree of technical proficiency.
I definately respect your craft and want to spend time learning more.
I plan on lurking and reading the archives for a while before I post anything too stupid (as I've done plenty of times in the past on other sites, I'm sure.)
I just read Will's comments on Glocusomine and Chondroitin and as I've had experience with joint surgery and recovery, thought I'd share...
I had the usual aches and pains in areas of my body, particularly in my elbow though. My Mom who had been experiencing some mild arthritis, actually recommended the Glucosomine and Chondroitin. I tried Trader Joe's label and it helped immediately, really effective. Unfortunately I develped a severe bone spur in my elbow which required surgery to remove. After the surgery my doctor explained that he did find a spongy material in my joint that WAS NOT cartilage and cleaned it out.
He wasn't sure what the spongy material was but it was not of a material the body naturally produces.
I'm not saying Glucosomine/Chondoitin is bad, it's just a little mysterious at this point. So be cautious is all, I don't think this has to be FDA approved or regulated. You've heard all the scandals I've heard lately.
BTW, my Mom is in her mid 60's, she's been taking the Gloc/Chon for several years now and is fine.
