Hello~I hope this finds you in not as much discomfort. I have osteoarthritis in both knees...which I'm learning how to deal with to ease up that pain when trying to walk up stairs...more strengthening. I also started to get a trigger finger..my middle finger. I know how painful this can be and didn't want to go the route I went down when I had this same thing happening on the other hand, years ago...which was a terribly painful injection. While the inj. did do its job..and that finger hasn't bothered me since....I thought to see if I could take care of this new 'stickiness, and pain in a more holistic manner. I started taking collagen powder in the am..that has many types of collagen our bodies can use..if they are 'peptides'..and hydrolyzed. I researched many brands..it's not a cheap fix by any means....but...I can honestly say that after 8 months of taking this powder in my morning coffee (yes..hard to find ones that totally dissolve)..an unflavored one has worked it's magic!....I've noticed that the age spots on the back of my hands have almost disappeared!..my thin hair is no longer so thin...my facial wrinkles have gotten lighter as well...I'm 77 yrs. young...still a bit shocked when looking in the mirror...wasn't happy with the ol' lady looking back...but, I can honestly say that I do feel and look better! Oh...and my trigger finger totally healed itself! I do take many supplements as well..but nothing has worked like the collagen powder has. I finally found a product that has all 5 types of collagen..and also dissolves well in hot liquids with no taste....I feel better then I have in years....I use Vitacost for most of my supplements..that helps to bring down the cost. Bless you all....keep up the fight to feel and look better!
