Vitamin D3

[Graham Breeze]

Indeed, I used to take glucosamine but my orthopaedic consultant told me that was a complete waste of money as there was very little in the way of clinical evidence for it having any affect on arthritis etc. He did say to carry on with omega 3 fish oil but 1000mg minimum a day for it to be beneficial in joint mobility.

My physio swore by the befits of glucosamine and much else.

My knee surgeon laughed and said I should save the money and spend it on a holiday!

So I dumped the glucosamine but take omega 3 on the basis that I have never heard a fish complain about knee problems.

And in gratitude I eat fish every day (hardly ever meat and nothing with wings) but since the fish are dead they tend not to hand out medical advice.
