Usage Instructions and Side Effects
You should take 1/4 oz of Flexicose per day. For the first
2 weeks, it is helpful to double your daily dose (to 1/2
oz.) for maximum relief if you have never taken glucosamine
before, or if you have been off glucosamine for more than
a three months.
1/4 oz is the same as one half (1/2) tablespoon or one and
a half (1.5) teaspoons. For those who do not want to hassle
with measuring out each dose separately, Flexicose contains
a built in measuring device that is very simple to use, even
for our customers who already have severe joint discomfort.
Simply open the left cap and gently squeeze until Flexicose
fills up to the appropriate measuerd dose. Then simply drink
Flexicose straight from the bottle or mix it with your favorite
drink. You may easily mix it with sodas or juices. For pets,
you can simply pour over their food. It just doesnt get any
easier.
Because Flexicose works with your body to help promote the
health of your joints after years and years of wear and tear,
you will start to notice relief after seven to fourteen days,
maybe add another week for severe cases. While some of our
customers have reported results in as little as just a few
days, sometimes right away, most people will take upto two
weeks for Flexicose to work for them. Continue taking your
Flexicose every day and you will pretty quickly begin to
feel relief. In very advanced cases, it may take close to
a month to start to reduce your discomfort by a substantial
level. Remember, unlike harsh NSAIDs, you are not just masking
the soreness, you are working on improving the health of
your joints. Just like a cut, it cannot not heal overnight.
If you wish to continue taking your NSAIDs such as aspirin
or ibuprofen while you are taking Flexicose, that is perfectly
ok. You should start to notice that the amount of NSAIDS
you need to take will become less and less over time until
after a few weeks you are likely to not need to take any
at all.
Side Effects, Contraindications, Interactions:
Shellfish Allergies
Because most glucosamine is derived from shellfish (a few
manufacturers offer it derived from corn), you should consult
your doctor prior to starting glucosamine therapy if you
suspect you may have a shellfish allergy. If the glucosamine
is pure but derived from corn, it is still possible that
people who are allergic to shellfish can take glucosamine.
Because the allergic reaction is to the proteins in shellfish
and glucosamine is derived from Chitin, a carbohydrate, it
is generally ok to try glucosamine, under the guidance of
a doctor, because the processing that takes place to extract
the glucosamine destroys the proteins and the antigens that
the body would normally react to. Despite this, our personal
recommendation is to avoid glucosamine if you are allergic
to shellfish. If you are allergic to shellfish but must take
glucosamine, speak with your health care professional first
before initiating any glucosamine therapy and discontinue
if you notice any negative effects.
Diabetics
Insulin levels with glucosamine (HCL or Sulfate) can be
subject to fluctuations, particularly in diabetics. Glucosamine
is technically a carbohydrate (a sugar), but the body is
not able to convert glucosamine into glucose. Hence, glucosamine
does not directly provide additional sources of glucose.
In diabetic patients, many factors can lead to changing blood
levels and as a result it is very important to check with
your doctor prior to initiating glucosamine therapy and to
be sure to be very careful (as always) about monitoring your
blood sugar levels while on Flexicose. Most diabetics should
not have a problem with glucosamine. Consult your doctor
first.
Pregnant Women
Pregnant and lactating women should generally avoid glucosamine
simply because there have not been enough long term studies
on the fetus to clearly say that glucosamine has absolutely
no effect on fetal growth. There is absolutely no known evidence
that glucosamine would be harmful, but it would be best to
be safe for the time being, while science lacks studies specifically
addressing pregnant women. As always, consult your doctor
first.
Overdose
Extremely high levels of Glucosamine (at many, many times
the daily dose) can cause gastric fluctuations such as soft
stools, diarrhea or nausea. You would generally have to take
more than one bottle of Flexicose to induce this. Flexicose
does not have to be taken with meals but it would be convenient
to mix with a drink when you take it if you so desired. We
recommend taking Flexicose in the morning when you go for
breakfast. Most people will not have any problems with Flexicose,
especially when taken at suggested dosages.
Aside from those four situations, and when taken as directed,
Flexicose is a very safe product. Unlike harsh and potentially
disabling or fatal drugs like Celebrex and Vioxx, Flexicose
is very safe when taken at normal dosages. Most importantly,
Flexicose actually gets to the root of your pain, and rebuilds
damaged cartilage. That is something that no NSAID or COX-II
drug can do for they simply mask your pain. Flexicose helps
to promote healthy cartilage and ease soreness and discomfort.
