Will Glucosamine and Chondroitin relieve tension and pain in the knees? ?
I hear my knees crack when I walk around, I have a little pain when I bend it. I wonder if this is to help my knee with flexibility.

Yes and no—there is no evidence that Glucosamine/Chondroitin does anything for tightness. You need a regimen of stretching and gentle exercise to alleviate that. But G/C does help INFLAMMATION and joint lubrication in about 40% of the people who take it. It’s worth a shot, But give it at least two months before you decide whether or not it helped you. If it does, then continue it. It won’t hurt anything. (Take at least 1500/1200 dosage though every day…any less won’t help much.)

Yes, it will definitely help. You should use a liquid glucosamine/chrondrotin however. I use Synflex 1500. IT WORKS!
