Do you suffer from arthritis or joint pain? Let me introduce my newest "best friend" - Green Lipped Mussel Extract. Back in 2006 - I was in so much back and knee pain that I couldn't even consider going out of the house. After trying "everything" for relief, a chance meeting introduced me to green lipped mussel extract - this "gift from the heavens" transformed my life within 3 short months. I'm now on a passionate "crusade" - letting others know just how healing this supplement has been for me. If you're desperate for pain relief like I was then I genuinely recommend you read my "personal journey" to recovery and discover what finally worked for me. I tell everybody now - "forget glucosamine" - you will be astonished at how much more effective green lipped mussel extract can be and how much longer lasting it is too.
