My Aching Joints

I find that as I get older, my poor old joints pain me horribly when the weather gets cold. In fact, I can always tell when a front is coming through when that familiar ache in my left knee begins to start. Being overweight, having several stupid accidents when I was younger because I'm a klutz and a family history of arthritis...all contributing factors to my deteriorated joint health. You should hear my ankles and knees pop. *shudder*

When an old dog I used to have, an Alaskan Malamute, begain having trouble walking due to arthritis in her hips, I changed her diet to a food that contained Glucosamine and Chondroitin. I was amazed at how little time (only a few weeks) her condition and ability to get around improved.

Ever since I saw the way those ingredients improved her life, I've been meaning to find a joint pain supplement for myself. I found a product called Synotrex that I'm interested in trying. In addition to Glucosamine and Chondroitin, the product as contains several other natural ingredients designed to rebuild cartilege and reduce pain and swelling.

I know that once I begin taking a supplement such as this, combined with my continued weight loss, I'll save myself from a future of being crippled by irreparable joint damage.
