joint pain
Just my 2 cents!
I've had degenerative arthritis for several years....the worst being my neck, where I have bone spur formation (overgrowth of bone that can press on nerves)
I've tried the Condroitin and found no effect, even after 2 months. BUT I've been following the LC WOL for just 5 weeks now and I've been able to cut down on my Motrin to half what I took in the past. 800 mg tablets 4 times a day down to mostly 2 times a day. I say mostly because on stressful days I've had to take a third pill....but in the past, under the same circumstances it was a fifth pill!
I've heard a lot of reports of marked descrease in joint pain from people following this WOL. Some may say it's the weight loss....and I'm sure that is often the case, especially for people with significant losses, but I noticed a difference after just 2 weeks!
