Osteocare joints
I've been diagnosed to have early stage Osteoporosis and I've been having muscle strain even in my hand when I hold the knife or the potato masher, and my jaw when I yawn. Ever since I started using Osteocare I don't have muscle strain anymore. Besides, my joints always crackled when I moved. I don't have this complaint any more.

For my Mom
I think the product is good, but maybe it would be better if the glucosamin concentration was higher.

I've been using this product for a while.
I have been using this for a while and believe it's a great quality product. My nails are stronger and my joints less achey. I'm very happy with it.
