Question
...the new buzz word infrared...as in saunas...everywhere you look these expensive "closets" are popping up.
what do you know about there effectiveness?

Answer
Hi Ruth,

They are effective for relief only, they do nothing to slow the process of the disease.

Glucosamine sulfate with MSM has been researched and proven to stop and even reverse OA in most patients.

I think the combined treatments would be very beneficial, if you're not in that much constant pain, I would just take 3 grams/day of the OTC supplement.

Make sure you get a pure brand since many don't contain what is reflected on the label. To make sure, check your brand with consumerslab.com, they test them all.

Good Luck!
