I had pains on the inner side of both knees which prevented me from jogging. I have been taking glucosamine and chondroitin for years but that product did not alleviate the pain. After 2 weeks, the daily dose of the UC-II seemed to relieve the continuous pain. I am, again walking and jogging without pain. Since I have used this product for only several months, I hesitate to give it a five star rating but I'm extremely pleased with the outcome.

I'm not sure if I'm nuts, or what ... BUT, about 5 months ago, I started walking... Somehow, or for whatever reason, I ended up with severe hip pain, and muscle pain... It &#34;reminded&#34; me of hamstring tendenosis ... and so, I left it alone... 3 months in, I decided to go to the dr. The pain was SO bad, I literally could NOT walk a lot of mornings when first getting up... NOR could I turn or rotate in my bed... It was extremely painful.... Although, I wasn't losing any sleep.<br /><br />I decided to go to the dr.'s to find out what is wrong... My thoughts going through my head, &#34;Cancer, Hip Replacement, Arthritis, Torn Ligament...&#34; Whatever ... It was on my mind and depressed me because I could no longer walk for exercise ....<br /><br />The Dr. put me on an anti inflammatory ... told me, &#34;let's give it 30 days&#34; - My instruction were to take the anti-inflammatory meds every 12 hours for the first 10 days, and then, back off to once a day OR better yet, AS needed ....<br /><br />To say the least ... I had to get a refill .... They helped ... but, &#34;just enough&#34; .... I knew something else was happening ....<br /><br />30 days later ... back to the dr. - He took an xray .... I got another refill of the anti inflammatory ... and also, was popping ibuprofen and tylenol arthritis pills like crazy ....<br /><br />The OTHER bad thing is .... My dr. also scheduled a colonoscopy for me .... after going to the consultation for that ... I found out that I was going to have to stop my anti inflammatory and ibuprofen at least 5 days prior to that ... BUT, that I could take acetaminophen .... So I bought a big thing of that ... and it &#34;sort&#34; of helped ... but, I was freaking out because &#34;what if I can't walk&#34; any ways .....<br /><br />Couple days later, in mid November of 2016, got a call from the dr with xray results .... &#34;arthritis&#34; ....<br /><br />Off to youtube to find out &#34;any cure for arthritis dr berg&#34; ..... and THAT'S where I came across the recommendation for THIS stuff ... UC II Joint Health Undenatured Type II .... Started taking this beginning of December ...... and frankly .... either my body just healed itself .... but, I have been OFF ALL ibuprofen, acetaminophen, and Tylenol, AND prescription ....<br /><br />I'm not exactly sure what this stuff does .... except, that it tricks the antibodies and distracts them, giving your join relief as well as being able to repair ....<br /><br />Eating right, also helps .... and of course, if you're a little overweight, perhaps, losing a little weight to help take the pressure off your joints ....<br /><br />Highly recommended .... and I second and support ALL of the positive comments ....<br /><br />One thing though .... you HAVE to take it on an empty stomach .... otherwise, your stomach acid will destroy it before it has a chance to &#34;work&#34;...<br /><br />Good luck .... Give it a shot....

I have osteo-arthrtis in my left knee and ankle, and read about the benefits of undenatured collagen type 2. I have been taking this brand of UC-ii for 6 months and have gone from swollen joints to no swelling and am pain free unless I overstress my joints. It works for me.

UC-II was recommended to me by my doctor and sure enough, after less than two weeks of taking it, I noticed a significant improvement with knee and foot (joint) pain I'd been having. Prior to taking UC-II, I felt like a 53 year old in the body of an 83 year old! I doubt I'll be able to resume running again, but I'm so thankful for this product which has made me feel so much better.

Absolutely love this product! Has definitely loosened my joints and they feel more lubricated. I highly recommend this product. It is especially noticeable when I climb stairs and left knee does not hurt.

I was so relieved when I found these capsules through Amazon. I used to purchase a CVS brand called Bone Health: UC-II. But, they discontinued them last Fall (2013). I was so upset and had to do research to find a comparable product. I have arthritis in my right knee and left hand, but it hasn't bothered me in over a year since I was taking the UC-II capsules. I run 3 times a week - up to 7 miles. So, I had to do research online to find a similar product to the CVS Bone Health capsules. After reading the reviews, I decided to try them. I've been taking them for about 2-3 weeks and they've been wonderful! I take them on an empty stomach either in the morning or before I go to bed at night. I have no joint pain in my knee or my left hand. This is an awesome product! Please don't discontinue it!
