Title: UC-11 or undenatured type 2 collagen for rheumatoid and osteo
Post by: gold55 on November 19, 2011, 04:56:33 PM
Hi folks,
Has anyone read about the supplements I mentioned above OR does anyone know others who have been successful with this supplement and arthritis pain, joint rebuilding?  I read about it in Life Extension magazine.  thanks!

I have not read about it yet. Did the article list the studies or was it a marketing piece?

Interesting, looking at the articles, which would be better, chicken or soy? If you try it, let us know how it works.

I'm seeing a 2nd Rheumatologist on Tuesday....she's a DO so I plan to ask her about this and any other supplements to help with osteo/RA and SJS!  I'm nervous as I always get my hopes up and then get the big let down but maybe things will be different this time.  This practice is supposedly the best in Tucson, AZ.   If I can be taking something natural to assist in lessening the destruction of connective tissue, mucous membranes, etc. then I don't want to just be sitting here waiting until my next blood test!  BTW.....I still drink dark cherry juice along with my carrot juice daily(not mixed tho!)
