Runners Knees ? They hurt much of the time ?
Safety and efficacy of undenatured type II collagen in the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee: a clinical trial
Right now I limit myself to running three times a week only so that I don't totally wreck my knees. It's a delicate balance as I hate painful knees but I want to run a 10K in less than an hour during 2010.
I'm experimenting with UC-II to see if it does any good!
The research reports say that it's more effective than glucosamine and chondroitin. I've tried both of these and they have no effect on my knees so I'm hoping that UC-II is better.
Currently, glucosamine and chondroitin are the two most commonly used nutraceuticals in humans as well as in animals to alleviate pain associated with arthritis (6). However, recent randomized controlled trials and meta-analysis of these supplements have shown only small-to-moderate symptomatic efficacy in human OA (7).
An emerging novel nutraceutical ingredient known as UC-II has received considerable attention in the treatment of OA. UC-II is a novel undenatured type II collagen derived from chicken sternum cartilage.

i currently use glucosamine, and all in good fun, it really did restore my body! I weight lift and I was starting to get trouble with my knees while squallting and deadlifting. I began researching the product and found this one:
glucosamine from simply supplements
I have to say, its worked magic on my knees! I didnt expect to be able to get full range on movement ever! But i can now squat better not only than I was with the pain, but than I ever was even before the pain! I can't say for sure whether this was completely due to glucosamine, however I now couldnt NOT take it just because i feel so much better for it!
