What Experts Say

Flex-a-min by Nature's Bounty is a joint health dietary supplement. The usual formula combines glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM). Glucosamine and chondroitin are natural parts of cartilage. Reading the supplement facts on the pack is the best way to know your exact dose.

Studies on these ingredients show mixed results, and benefits, when they occur, tend to be modest and can take several weeks to appear. A supplement does not replace treatment, weight management or exercise advised by a doctor. Doctors often add exercise, healthy weight and physiotherapy to protect joints alongside supplements.

Pack sizes and formulas vary between Flex-a-min versions, so read the supplement facts on your pack. Anyone with shellfish allergy, diabetes, or who takes blood thinners should check with a doctor first. Stop using it and seek advice if you notice swelling of the face, rash or breathing difficulty.
