Doctor's Best Glucosamine Chondroitin MSM + Hyaluronic Acid with OptiMSM Featuring Biocell Collagen, Joint Support, Non-GMO, Gluten & Soy Free, 150 Caps

I have had disc slipping problems my entire life due to spondylolisthesis - my lumbar discs would constantly slip. I remember in the 90s when the late 90s a chiropractor tried to push glucosamine chrondoitin on me. I tried the samples for a few months but they had no noticeable effect. I had back fusion in 2000 and the problem was cured. As I got older, the discs next to the ones I fused would slip from time to time. Over the past few years, that became more constant. I actually tried this product for the collagen that was in it, but I've noticed my disc doesn't slip any more when taking these. I stopped taking them for a short while and my back acted up again. I've been taking them for almost a year now and my back hasn't slipped once. I'm 100% sold on this as a viable medical solution.

I was honestly hesitant to try this product at first. As someone with a known allergy to shellfish (especially crabs), I was worried that the glucosamine, which is often derived from shellfish, might trigger a reaction. I held off for a while, keeping the bottle on my shelf and researching alternative supplements just in case. But after reading several reviews and checking the label carefully, I finally decided to try Doctor's Best Glucosamine Chondroitin MSM + Hyaluronic Acid with OptiMSM Featuring Biocell Collagen and I’m so glad I did. To my relief, I experienced absolutely no allergic reactions. No itching, no hives, no digestive discomfort—nothing. It was very well tolerated, and that alone was a big win for me. But beyond that, I started to notice gradual improvements that made a real difference. Pain relief and mobility: Within about 2–3 weeks of consistent use, I noticed that my joint stiffness—especially in the mornings or after long periods of rest—had significantly decreased. The dull aches in my hips and knees became less noticeable, and activities like walking, standing up from a seated position, and even light stretching felt smoother and more comfortable. Other benefits: Something I didn’t expect was how it seemed to help with overall connective tissue comfort. I’ve been recovering from some soft tissue and joint-related issues, and this formula seemed to support that recovery more than I expected. I pair it with other supportive supplements, but this product seems to be a cornerstone in my stack. No unpleasant aftertaste, easy to swallow, and no stomach upset—I take it with food just to be safe, but even on an emptier stomach it hasn’t caused issues. Final thoughts: If you’ve been holding off due to concerns about shellfish allergies, I definitely recommend doing your due diligence (always check with your doctor), but in my case, this product has been a total game-changer. It’s effective, gentle on my system, and has helped reduce pain and support healing in a very noticeable way. Highly recommended!

I was VERY familiar with this type of product for animals. I watched my old horse go from limping everywhere to smoothly running around after a week of a loading dose with similar active ingredients. Fast forward many, many years and many successful recommendations to other people to try glucosamine PLUS Chondroiten Plus MSM for inflammation Plus HA hyaluronic acid to bump up the eqq white consistency of the joint's synovial fluid... I find myself in pain a year and a half after a bad car accident. Hips hurting when I walk very long and at night, relegating me to sleeping on my back-also suffering from pain in my hands, neck, shoulder, mid back, thighs, thumb, even my feet. It's worse when it's cold and rainy. I'm just over 50 so I seem to be healing so slowly--even though there is and was a lot to heal... I decided to try supplementing-- Covid has me staying at home most of the time and not doing all the physical therapy and chiropractor etc I was, so my regimen is down to home work: infrared, red light, whole body vibration, mediation, fasting, assigned PT exercises and gentle pilates stretches & strengthening. I decided to add this to my repertoire. I also decided to do a LOADING dose for one week which is double the dose for the first week-most every animal product like this recommends this loading dose week at first. I drink almost a gallon of water every day so I figure that will help with things. I take 5 in the morning and 5 in the evening--this type of product always has a ton of pills to take and I do appreciate that they are smaller and easier to swallow than some pills I've had in the past. I'm on day 3 of a loading dose and already noticing a difference in my hips at night and some improvement when I go to stand up from sitting-not creaking and popping & stiff like normal. I usually roll over in my sleep and some time later wake up from extreme pain because I'm laying on my side. (from multiple fractures in my pelvis). I go back to sleep on my back and wake up again once I have rolled over. Well, that didn't happen last night. Normally, I wake up in the mornings and hurt so badly I will put my bed into Zero Gravity position to drink my coffee and wait for the aches to subside before getting up for the day. I'm writing a review so soon after purchase because I had no idea if this would help me and figured I'd need a week of a loading dose before I'd see any results just like my old horse did--not 3 days! I'm VERY happy with the results and have not done any other thing different. I hope the results last and help me heal more. I plan to only take the double dose until my week is up and then split up the 5 pills- morning and evening. It'd be excellent if it helped my skin, hair and nails, but I'd take pain relief first and foremost as living in consistent pain is plain ole wearisome. I miss going for walks with my husband and dog...

A few years ago I started having multiple aches and pains in my feet that grew worse when I resumed running/walking every day. (I'm a 53yo woman.) I've had great success with glucosamine products with my aging pets, and as the months dragged by with no improvement in my feet I decided to give Doctor's Best a trial run. 24 hours after the first dose, I noticed a difference, but that wasn't necessarily the supplement, since the pain does vary from day to day. Now, ten days in, I can definitely say the supplement is helping. I still have some pain in the joint at the outside edge of my right foot, but it's MUCH better than it used to be, and the myriad pains in both feet are mostly gone. I'm looking forward to seeing how things feel after a month! BTW, others have noted the size of the capsules. I find that the size tracks with that of other, similar nutraceuticals; these are coarser products -- essentially, food extracts -- than most pharmaceuticals. It takes a relatively large amount to get the job done. I actually have no problem downing multiple capsules at once, and I'm not a large person. I'd be willing to take each capsule individually, though, given the improvement I'm experiencing.

I’m very happy with this product. I started noticing improvement after about two weeks. I also used it together with my physical therapy exercises and regular workouts.

Since collagen material in the body is what heals tendons I started taking this after suffering for 6 1/2 years with tendonitis in both shoulders and adductors. After 1 month I could totally feel some improvement & less pain - I know tendons heal slowly. I went on to heal (did need a torn rotator cuff surgery on one side) and have been tendonitis FREE for 7 years!!!Cartwheels! Happy Surprises: After 6 months of taking this product I realized my fingernails were healthier and not breaking quickly as they had my whole life, for me this was HUGE. Woohoo! Then at about 1 year, my thick brown, very long hair, which needed split ends trimmed every 6 months, seemed like steel! I couldn't believe it as I kept checking for split ends and there were hardly any to be found. I'm on autoship and plan to always take this product - I am so pleased with the results! My husband got tendonitis last year (we're in our 60's)and started taking this product too- he's now a regular user as he's seen results and less pain as well. TIP: Dosage is 5 capsules, I know...alot. Whenever I cut back I can tell the difference...so 5 is for a good reason. I personally take 2 each morning and 3 after dinner, it does not disturb my sleep like so many things do (I'm highly sensitive re: supplements, any small amt caffeine, eating after 6:30pm, all keeping me awake). WARNING - many Doctor's Best products look similar on the label - keep a sharp eye for the specific one that has these needed ingredients: BioCell Collagen II, Hyaluronic Acid, Glucosamine, & Cond + MSM

I bought this product for an unusual pain in my right knee after the failure to achieve pain relief for that knee from using what I believe was artificial therapeutic-grade wintergreen essential oil that's pictured in the blue box. I did notice less pain after four days of consuming five capsules. The capsules were easy to swallow, and I do suggest taking two or three capsules at a time until you've taken all five. If I remember correctly, there's a faint salty taste from the content and this product didn't upset my stomach or caused any trouble for me. The contents of the capsules are white in color, and you could see the contents move within the capsules because they are not filled to capacity but very close like 99.5%. Unfortunately, the improvement didn't increase like I hoped because I need to be mobile daily for the sake of family. The problem may be both muscular and joint; I'm not sure. Another small positive from using this product was the growth of my nails but they weren't as strong as from taking better nutrients. I don't think I'll repurchase this product because there wasn't much noticeable relief in my right knee. In fact, I began to notice pain in the left knee while trying to care for the right one as I was taking this product according to its directions. I suggest prospective buyers to do more research on what substances really work instead of being influenced by marketing tactics that promote lies and incomplete information.

Muy bueno

It took longer to be delivered than I thought but the product is good
