Kim,
I have been using Kirkland brand from Costco and it works just as well as the big name brands. I use the extra strength formula because you only have to take 2 caps a day instead of 3 to get the recommended dosage. I recently tried a new formula from Schiff called Lubriflex(also available at Costco) because it has Hyaluronic acid in it. I was curious about the Hyaluronic acid because I know it has been used successfully by veterinarians for years in the treatment of joint problems in performance horses. I really like this product too and it really does do what it claims, but is more expensive than the Kirkland brand. I have been currently taking one Kirkland tab in the AM and one Lubriflex in the PM and feel that works best for me. I also noticed since I started taking the Lubriflex, that if I miss a day or two, I don't notice it as much, so I'm thinking maybe the Hyaluronic acid stays in your system a bit longer.
All I can say is it sure is nice not to wake up aching all over anymore! I used to feel like I was 100 years old when I first got out of bed in the morning. My joints in my feet even hurt! So even though I look older than I am, at least I don't feel like it!!!!!!!!
Love, Kim
