Guest guest Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 I haven’t heard of either so I looked them up on the web. Neither of them seems to be good for Rheumatoid Arthritis because some 99% of the hits don’t talk about RA. I did find some testimonials about them for RA on sites that sell the product but there is no way of knowing who writes the testimonials. If I were so inclined I could get a franchise for selling something like this and then plaster the web with lots of testimonials under different names telling how great it was. I don’t put a lot of stock in testimonials unless I know something about the person who gives the testimonial. I would be surprised if they work for RA. RA is a progressive disease that if untreated or undertreated is likely to lead to permanent joint damage. There are medications that slow or stop the joint damage and anyone with RA should be on one or more of these. They are called DMARDs (Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs) and the newest group are known collectively as biologics. I hope your mother is being treated by a rheumatologist because few other doctors are competent to diagnose or treat RA. God bless.

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Hi , both these products sound like they are a glucosomine mix type product and where I believe glucosomine helps over the long term for RA by protecting the joints I don't believe they will address the complete issue of the disease. I would be more likely to place my trust in digestive enzymes with a good balanced vitamin/mineral product, then add these products as well if needed for the long term benefits. You can get digestive enzymes in any health food store but please be cautious of the quality of product.
