Supplementing with magnesium and vitamin D3 and K2 helped with my back pain. There's lots research out there on this and most people are deficient in these vitamin/minerals.
If you take magnesium, you should take D3. When you take D3 you should take K2. These are often available in the same capsule. Throw a decent amount of vitamin C in the mix also because amongst other things, it helps D3 work.
MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is great as well, has the "same active ingredient", Sulfur as Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO).
I take MSM disolved in a glass of water internally and diluted DMSO (50% - 70%) topically. Please inform yourself before considering taking it, especially DMSO!
Edit: As u/MemetallyPostarded pointed out, D3, K2 and Magnesium are very important as well if one lives far from the equator...
I get it on Amazon (I know, shoot me) and use it on my knees...
Rumor has it, DMSO is the sole reason Kamala can still get around...
😂
My hat is tipped in your general direction
Is Amazon the cheapest to get it or just the easiest? Also, what brand are you getting?
I drink 1 tsp 99% mixed with distilled water every night.
Dose it actually work?
