Hi,
You mean her remedy is working so she is proactive? Are you visiting
her as a homeopath?
Best,
Ellen

Hi Ellen,

Your posts recently are coming thru unattached to any prior post, so
one has to go looking to see what you're replying to. Could you maybe
copy-and-paste just a snippet for context? (I can of course look back
thru the thread, but it's a nuisance...)

Thanks!

I was visiting this 90 plus old lady as a friend. She was taking this Vital 3 Joint solution [Googling this it said a preparation from collagen ]3 drops daily .
I feel it must be a organ remedy from collagen in potency but it does not say that. However the improvement in her mobility and decreased pain was marked. Was just curious as to what any one else thought it might be. I admired her courage to find this and order from overseas . She has used remedies in the past. Thank you Jean

Will do. Thanks,
Ellen

Hi Jean,

It does look very impressive--they talk about numerous clinical trials
showing effectiveness etc.--and with a 3 drops per day dosage, it sure
sounds like "minimum dose"! They say it's "type 2 collagen", but I
don't see anything to suggest it's potentized. (

Looks very interesting tho!

interesting read. however, it seems like another no cure,
buy-the-product-forever
type of product. the article/sales pitch claims the product stops the
biological
process that attacks the joints and claims that the body heals itself.
however,
the need to keep buying the product says to me that it is another bandaid
instead
of a cure. i do understand the desire for pain relief, but this is not
long term
solution

Well maybe,but the effect was remarkable. I advised her that probably
only needed it when a boost was required. ??borrowing our energy but
safer not to admit it. Thank you, Jean

Two of it's 9 patents, http://www.google.com/patents/about?id= ... =5,399,347,

show it's not homeopathic.

It would have been great to see more (something) about that!!
I read one person (at least) saying that when the stopped using it,
pain returned rather quickly. But if it's actually *rebuilding*
cartilage--at that is the explanation they offer--that surely seems to
me to have long-term benefit. While it's not the only product that
claims to rebuild cartilage (have read the same from glucosamine,
chondroitin, niacin, a "hydrolyzed collagen" protein supplement, and
one or more compounded supplements), it does put them into a different
category from the vast majority...

Thanks. Good research. I wish I understood why a 3 drop dosage so effective, Jean
