I got tired of hijacking the ibuprofen thread. Does anyone take fish oil? If yes, what dose? Post away.

Krill oil .. it doesn't kill pain but my joints feel better when I take it

bioflex only been a month but seems to be helping my joints noticed I have to drink a lot of water since I started taking it but regardless i'm walking better

Run, I would like to hear more about the black cherry juice. How much do you take and how often?

Cod liver oil, in the gel caps, is about the richest source of vitamin D there is, next to sun and leafy deep green veggies.

Im not sure about pain, but I do know that enough Vit. D does a whole lot of good in many ways for the whole body, a cascade effect to systemic healing. Im betting that would help pain also as it works on the sources of the pain.

Not any fish oil, has to be cod liver oil...in gel caps, they are easy to take and theres no after taste at all.

Natural food supplements are the way to go, over synthesized vitamins bought over the counter , that dont absorb into the body.

I don't want to hijack it either. I'll ask here what I had posted on it

Has anyone heard of or tried Minagin (Ojibwe Ointment)? I recently read about it online, says its supposed to treat Joint Pain,Arthritis,Fibromyalgia and more. After many years of sports,gym,motorcycle wrecks,car wrecks,the job, and too many steak and beer nights everything hurts. I want to try it but am leary. Afraid of scripts but take advil like skittles.

I actually like fish oil as long as it's not rancid.

Took cod liver oil tablespoonful twice a day for about five years as child, quack doc said I was anemic and that would fix it. I'm not sure if there is a connection, but all fish taste the same to me...
I did out grow the anemia, if i ever had it.

I take fish oil gel caps along with various vitamins. Fish oil has lots of benefits because of the amount of omega 3 brain and heart health, helps joints, and muscle pain.
My combo too help my overall pain is fish oil, vitamin d 2000 IU, magnesium tabs, potassium, calcium, L-Arginine, B12 and a multi vitamin.

Lee, cousin Mike said two cups of black cherry juice a day is helping him, buy at supermarket or Amazon he said. My online search for "black cherry juice anti inflammatory" turns up lots and lots of good reports and recommendations for gout and inflammation and arthritis treatment.
Almost any fruit will help some. I haven't gone to the store since he told me this.

A buddy of mine has bad knees. Takes fish oil (sorry don't know the amount) and said it made huge improvements in his ability to do things now.

Yes, I take 2 Alaskan Salmon Oil pills each day. Dosage on bottle says to take 2 per day with food. Doctor put me on it, for heart health and joint pain, lot's of other benefits as well.

Moonshine is the only one i use.

Well, there is a certain Poppy...

chewing young branches of willows will release the ingredient salicylic acid after metabolism - salicylic acid is what aspirin is made of

Curamin or Curamed that's the brand name. One is gel cap one a tablet.

Good stuff, I've used it.

Three salmon cell caps(1000mg). I bite em and spit out the gelatin shells then 4oz orange juice not from concentrate. First thing in the morning 1/4 hour before anything else. Difference whether I can make a fist or not.
Sharron I'm going to try the cod liver oil next time I buy. Remember it from my mother helping her bursitis.
The orange juice thing was from a medical journal she read to take the cod liver oil with.

Spring Buds off a Cotton wood tree just before they start to open up, ground up and mixed into warm coconut oil. Let sit overnight then strain. This is wonderful stuff for aches and pains. I use about a 2 to 1 ratio. 2 parts oil to 1 part buds. Can't be allergic to aspirin though. The buds will be about the size of a Tabasco pepper and slightly oily when ready to pick.

Make a tea out of the birch polypore mushroom, grows on dying birch trees, it's a great muscle relaxant, and it's use is ancient . I could use some right now.
