hiked to Pancakes R Us…and am improving my walking…

…both posture (a big one) and speed. I can keep Joan and Jane in sight on the way back, the uphill. Downhill I can keep up.


And let me tell you, if you have muscle pain or weakness, get a combo of Gloucosamine, Chondroitin, and Hyaluronic Acid, and take it with Magnesium, Potassium, and Vitamin D. If you're taking prescription meds, clear it with your doc and get advice from your doc about when in the day/how far from the other dose to take these, or if you should have them—(eg, with levothyroxine it's 4 hours away from the thyroid dose for Magnesium, or in Jane's case, Iron.) Here's what hyaluronic acid does: http://www.livestrong.com/article/373... I got off it for a while and really felt it; got back on, and I'm in far better shape.

Jim Mcclanahan Far be it from me to suggest anyone take MORE pills, But I have one which has helped me. I've been taking glucosamine for years with favorable results. But I also happen to be bothered occasionally with plantarfascitis (a sometimes age related problen with feet). My internist suggested I take MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane). It is often combined in glucosamine products, but in fairly small doses. It's a dietary supplement, not a drug. After 2 or 3 weeks of taking 1000 mg. once a day, my PF has improved about 90%.

FWIW
