I don't know who these people talked to when they called, because I got a free one month's supply (shipping not included of course) and will get a bottle per month for a little over $40 until I elect to stop. They had some high priced offers which, in long run would save money per bottle, but wanted to see if I even liked the product. Haven't found much help from doctors so have to keep trying to find some relief. These are natural ingredients so don't think it can harm me. Time will tell.

Someone just posted a response that they did not believe me about the offer I received starting with a free bottle...why in the world would I lie.

Julie,
I don't know why they did not tell you about the buy 5 get 7 free offer which reduces the price to about $25.00 per bottle.

There are several compounds found to enhance the effectiveness of glucosamine sulfate. Hyaluronic acid, Boswelia Serrata, Chondroitin, Turmeric, Evening Primrose Oil, Cayenne Pepper, Ginger, Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), and others.

It does not seem that any supplement combines them all (and that may be because of contraindications, I do not know).

It would seem prudent for you to do google research to find the pure glucosamine. It was easy. Finding the best price for it is fairly easy too.

Personally, I have tried preparations with some of the above mentioned complementary ingredients and found only marginal relief of symptoms. So, I still have not received the Arthri D. But, it is a combination that I have not tried.

Also, the Arthri D has a different type of glucosamine which has not been as rigorously tested as glucosamine sulfate. It is metabolized differently and not considered as easily absorbed or useful in arthritis. But, I am still optimistic due to the testimony of the salesperson I spoke with that uses it personally. His story was compelling. I will post back here in about 6 weeks as I am able to test the product which has not yet arrived.

My recommendation to you is to do your own research of the products available. I committed to Arthri D before I did my google search and learned so much. I am still optimistic as they have a proprietary formula which I have not tried yet. Different things work better for different people. One size will never fit all. Good Luck!

Just an FYI, all supplements must have the small print like - * These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
So if a product does NOT have this, they are out of compliance, because claims cannot be made, HOWEVER, some products can still be helpful. Of course do your due diligence, and it's why we all came here, to get a referral, referrals help us decide sometimes. I say, is there a money back guarantee, that's what speaks to me about any company. The wellness industry is approaching a Trillion dollars - we are realizing prevention is better than the cure.

I called and order a year's worth. I can try it for 30 days and send it back if it doesn't work. I HOPE it works. I'll let you know.

Teri and Tim:

I have been taking Arthri-D for only a week now. On the 3rd day, I noticed that my right knee did not feel funny anymore and the discomfort and slight pain from walking up and down the stairs in my house was gone. Before Arthri-D, when I sat at my computer for 20 minutes of work, I would get up with significant pain in my lower and thoracic spine. I cannot stand up straight at all. Since taking Arthri-D. I can get up with no problem. There is still some pain in my lower back. But, I can easily stand up straight. So, there is distinct improvement.

My wife's results are NOT as dramatic as mine. She thinks there has been some improvement, but only a little so far.

I will keep all posted with her results since her condition is much more acute than mine.

Also, the ingredients in Flex-protex-d are extremely similar as that of Arthri-D. However, Flex does not give even as much quantity information as Arthri-D. Also, on their website they mention a Glucosamine Derivative. I believe that they have copied Arthri-D and will not divulge too much, publicly, about their product so as not to invite legal issues.

At any rate, their price per bottle when you buy single is less than Arthri-D. But, when you buy bulk quantity of either the prices converge.

I will post again as our usage of Arthri-D progresses. (I am slightly concerned about William's post. He said that the Flex product quit working for him. So, I am wondering about Arthri-D since they have a similar formulation.)

Vsubia66102,

My name is Henri (pronounced Onree) and not Henry. I am not associated with Arthri-D except as a customer. And, that may be temporary. I only post here to be of assistance and was asked to report my experience with the product. I do not advocate the product. I am just giving honest experiences. Please do not carelessly accuse me of being deceitful as if only out to make money off of others.

If you are reading these posts looking for honest answers, read all of my posts and perhaps you will see that we are all on the same journey of trying to get healthier and stay that way.

Not all of the ingredients are easily obtained as you have claimed. I am not knowledgeable enough to mix them in proper proportions. So, I prefer to have a supplement that has been mixed for me.

In addition, I have tried many formulations just as others on this forum have. And, I have met with mediocre to nil results. So, I have hope for Arthri-D to continue to work for me and hopefully benefit my wife. But, only time will tell. The jury is still out on this.

Good luck on your search.

Hello to Henri. Im still eager to hear how the two of you are doing on this suppliment. I have taken Dr Williams also, but then i was introduced to Joint Solution by Vital Health by a nuitionalist who has helped me with other problems and his knowledge of natural suppliments. I just keep hoping that I will find something even better. Specially after watching the commercial about this Arthri-D. So I wait to hear and read the comments from Henri and others.

The castrol oil packs work great on so many ailments and painful areas. I had forgotten about those--so I will do the packs as well. Its an old remedy, but does work very well. Thanks to all. Teri

Arthri-D also has Yucca in it which is a known painkiller on it's own, you can buy it by the bottle in pill form. I called the Arthri-D # and was able to get a $39.99 trial bottle for the $7.99 price of S/H only. However, you must be careful to cancel withing 30 days of receiving if it is not working, because they will send more and charge accordingly. I was impressed with the highest quality glucosamine he said is used.

Bill,
It is good that Flex Protec D worked for you and you are able to purchase again.

However, there is a different combination of ingredients in Arthri-D. Though several are the same, there are some additional ingredients in Arthri D. I try to be careful about statements being true. I do not know which product is better between the two.

Today completes my 3rd week on Arthri D. So far it is doing well for me and NOT so well for my wife, yet. She is taking several medications now and her experience cannot be attributed to Arthri D alone.

Steve P,

Thanks for the info on the Arthri D commercial.

What do you know about Flex Protex D? This is all very interesting.

I still have time to return my Arthri D if it does not continue to work. Right now it seems to be okay.

Hi Linda,

Make sure that you call them on the customer service number and have your money back period extended since you purchased so much of the product.

Also make sure you keep all of the empty bottles because if you ask for a refund they will base it on how many bottles you send back to them even if they are empty. My money back warranty expires in October. Make sure they tell you the exact date that yours expires.

Good Luck.

Anything you see on TV and purchase can be returned if not satisfied. I sale a lot of stuff for infomercials. I have not tried everything I sale. I do know, however that if you are not completely satisfied with your orders then return the product within 30 day and the company has to return your money less shipping of course.

Hi Vicki,

I am doing much better. The product continues to work for me. We have to pay for our learning experiences in this life. You will not know whether a product works for you until you give it an honest try.

You have undoubtedly seen a lot of traffic on this site and some has not been very flattering.

I have come to understand that Arthri D is an almost identical product to Flex Protex D. Flex Protex D preceded Arthri D and seems to be promoted by the same individuals and has the same stories.

So, I think they should produce similar results. Please keep in mind that no product works for everyone. That is why there can be so much conflicting testimony.

I would say, be brave and find out what works for you. I can recommend Arthri D because it works for me. My wife is getting better, but she takes other medications and treatments also. Therefore, I cannot attribute her improvement to just Arthri D.

Since Flex Protex D has an extremely similar formulation, you may want to try that. A gentleman, named Bill, on this site has strongly recommended that. I believe he has had the success that he claims.

So, Good Luck in finding the healing relief that you seek.

Also, my wife uses a cream called Australian Dream that seems to give temporary relief from inflammation and pain. It may be a good product for you to use in conjunction with whatever else you may choose to use. And by the way, a former spouse has also started to use Australian Dream for her cervical neck pain and has experienced some relief of her pain with that product.

Dale,

I don't know what products you have already tried. However, there is a lot of good information in this discussion. I recommend that you read all the posts that have my name in the pages of this discussion. It will give quite a bit of information about the products that seem to work for some. There are only 6 pages of posts in this discussion. So, good luck in your search.

Hi Loving Husband,

I wrote this earlier about Arthri D:

I researched the glucosamine in the Arthri-D. It has nothing to do with quality. It is a more expensive glucosamine than the sulfate. However, it also is a larger molecule and therefore harder to absorb. There has NOT been sufficient testing and study of that NAG type of glucosamine in the treatment of arthritis. It has primarily been used for digestive tract ailments. However, my personal experience so far with Arthri-D has been:

The product is still working quite well for me. I have arthritis pain in the knees and the right knee is worst. I also had moderate joint pain in my right hand that was not healing for over 6 months and was getting worse. The injury to my right hand was due to crushing blows to the knuckles by my middle school kids. It was their substitute for handshakes (I was a math teacher). I was greeted in this way by about 50 male students per day. Being macho I didnt let them know my hand was getting damaged. I finally had to quit the practice. But, my hand suffered severely and I couldnt pick up heavy objects with it. Even after having quit the practice for 3 months (greeting the students in this way), my hand was not improving. Within the first week of taking Arthri-D, I felt an improvement. And, now after two weeks, the pain is gone. But, I am still being very careful not to stress the hand so that it fully recovers. So, my right knee feels normal now and my right hand is almost completely healed. The arthritis pain in my cervical spine and lower back have also definitely improved with the use of Arthri-D.

However, it may be several more weeks before I am sure about my wife. She does a lot of garden work and I dont think she rests enough for the healing process to work faster. She aggravates her condition on almost a daily basis. She rested for two days and her knees definitely got better but she was also icing them and using Australian Dream cream. So, I cannot attribute the improvement to just the Arthri-D.

NO PRODUCT works for everyone. Perhaps, it is because we are all different. I dont know if it will work for my wife. I do know that I have purposely NOT taken any other products or treatments and my conditions have improved.

By the way, the Australian Dream Cream is very effective (though short term). Evelyn uses it a lot. I read up on the cream and was impressed with its claims of vasodilation and the Emu oil, etc. For quick relief, it seems to be a winner.

UPDATE!!!

My hand, knees, low back pain, cervical (neck) pain, and foot pain have all improved dramatically. I have arthritis in all those locations except the hand. The hand was an injury that would not heal before.

I have found out that some people do not do well with glucosamine sulfate because of metabolic issues. So, the NAG type of glucosamine supposedly gets around some of the metabolism necessary for the glucosamine to be used. But, that makes a larger molecule to absorb which could theoretically be another issue for some people.

Arthri D3 and Flex Protex D3 are essentially the same product. Your wife may find benefit in either product. These two products seem to be the leaders utilizing the newest combinations of ingredients to get the best results.

My wife also has RA and is using more than just Arthri D3 as noted above. She is also using Celadrin, which was recommended on this site. It is a tougher battle for her. No two people are the same. I do not need the additional products, but she does. And still, she is not completely relieved. However, all of it has helped. She was almost bedridden with pain before. But, she gets around a lot easier now.

You will only know for sure if you try the product. There is a money back guarantee which has apparently been honored.

I hope this helps you in making a decision for your wife. Good Luck for Better Health.

Jamerican,

I have taken the product for exactly 45 days. Read what I have already written. No one can guarantee that it will work for you. Everyone's body is different and needs somewhat different supplementation to heal. However, you should get some benefit from the product.

Parrothead,
I just spoke with the company that I bought my Arthri D from. It is 5:41 p.m. and I got right through. The representative assured me that there is no problem getting money back as long as the product is returned within the time period stated. I bought my product in July and yes, I bought a lot. I called them at that time and asked about extending the 30 day money back guarantee and they did. This representative today assured me that I still have until October 16 to return my empty bottles and remaining product if it has not worked for me as desired.

I told him about your post and he says to please call around 3 or 4 pm when the calls slow down. He will try and help you get satisfaction. Please call on this number: 800-330-1326.

By the way, the product is working great for me but not for my wife. Her knees will need further doctor's intervention. Good Luck.
