Serrapeptase and knee pain, January 14, 2009
By Herbalist13 from Baltimore MD

"I believe this product may be helpful in alleviating knee and joint pain. I've also heard others recommend as a mucolytic, that is, for breaking up respiratory congestion in cough and bronchitis. I think this product may actually be more effective that Wobenzym for knee and joint pain."

"A year ago at age 41 I found myself with debilitating pain in one knee with no known injury. In desperation I started taking a glucosomine/condroitin supplement and several months of physical therapy. The pain lessened after 8 months but still was not acceptable. After finding this product I am pain free. I am able to do everything that I could do before (such as get down on my knees) and I believe this product was integral in my recovery. I don't plan to ever stop taking it."
