-
Glucosamine
Glucosamine- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

I have flat feet so I've never had the best joints. Since I've been working out my joints would ache and take longer to heal. After about 10 days of taking triflex chewables, my joints (especially my knees) feel 10 times better!

Comments about GNC TriFlex™ Soft Chewables - Chocolate:
I am very skeptical of vitamins. However, after reading the reviews, I was willing to give this product a shot. I am glad that I did! I am recovering from a torn rotator cuff, two torn ACL's & my knuckles pop all the time. I have noticed that after 2 weeks of use, my knuckles and knees do not pop or ache as much as they used to! My rotator cuff however is still bothersome. Also, the taste isn't the best. But I will still use the product despite the fact that the taste is strange. It is an excellent product!
