Vibrant Health, Joint Vibrance, Comprehensive Joint and Cartilage Support, Orange Pineapple, 21 Servings

Okay, first off, I want to offer an apology to those folks who gave this powder a rating of "1" because they said it was horrible to mix up and drink. When I read their reviews, I thought they were a bunch of weenies to complain about the taste, appearance, and mixing issues. So long as a product gives you great benefits, who cares about taste and mixing...right? Boy, was I wrong. As a long-time daily drinker of this same company's Green Vibrance powder, I assumed it would be pretty much like their other products. I always mix their Green Vibrance in 6-8 oz cold water and stir briskly. It looks (and probably tastes) like the stuff I clean out of our Koi pond. I chug it down as fast as I can because of the taste, but since it gives such noticeable health benefits I don't dread drinking it every morning. I tried this same technique with the Joint Vibrance powder. The container says to "stir briskly" to mix into water or juice. Well, you can stir briskly til the cows come home...it's not going to mix well by just stirring. It's almost like the powder repels the liquid so you end up with foaming and big clumps floating on the liquid and sticking on the side of the glass. I tried but couldn't manage to gag down more than a sip. Ended up making a fruit smoothie in the blender in order to drink it. So for those of you who don't mind making a smoothie EVERY day, it'll be fine. The powder did mix up okay in the blender and the taste did not affect the smoothie taste too much. I understand that others have had success with mixing in a shaker jar with liquid. Haven't tried it yet.You may be wondering why I would give it a rating of "5" after reading my comments above...but the product really does work great. Before buying the Joint Vibrance powder, I first bought it in the pill form. By the end of my third week on the pills, my knees were greatly improved. I've had knee surgeries for cartilage/tendon issues and my orthopedist has suggested a replacement for one of my knees. I've tried other products like Osteo Bi-Flex with little or no improvement. I'm in my early 50s and very active (former runner before knees became too bad)...so was really looking for anything that can hold off a knee replacement for a few years. I now use both the tablets and the powder...the powder on days when I have the time to make a smoothie and the tablets for those days when it's easier/faster to swallow 12 pills.UPDATE (10/18/12): I had stopped taking Joint Vibrance for a couple of weeks. Mainly it was because I had run out of both tablets and powder. For the first 3-4 days, my knees still felt the same...so I didn't reorder the product, thinking that maybe my joints were going to be fine without it. Then we went on vacation for a week. About 5-6 days after stopping the Joint Vibrance, my knees really started to hurt. By the time we returned home, my "surgery" knee throbbed and "gritted" so much that I could barely walk on it. I immediately reordered both tablets and powder. It has taken nearly a week of regular use to get my knee back to where it had been before I stopped using Joint Vibrance. I don't kid myself that I won't need a replacement in a few years; but it is very obvious to me now of how much this product has helped me. Won't forget to order again.Also, over the period of time that I've been using it, I've found that I don't mind the taste at all. I think the initial foaming of that first time really did a number on me. I still generally use a blender with the powder, but often I'll just mix it with water and a little ice.

I’m 55 years old and have been out of work for almost 2 years because my husband is disabled and I’m his only caregiver. Since I’ve stopped working I noticed a lack of energy and I haven’t been as limber. I use to say I kept my husband young (he’s 7 years older than me) but now he’s making old feels like it anyway! I ordered this despite the reviews saying it didn’t taste good and it’s the only collagen that accepts fsa/hsa!I was nervous about the taste because I have a sensitive stomach, I can’t do bad tastes lolI mixed it with 8oz water and I also added my daily emergen-c in my protein shake cup, I have to say it was so good!! I wanted more after I finished drinking it lolMy results after almost 3 weeks is that I have more energy, I get up every morning without hesitation and I also joined a morning chair yoga class! My nails are growing so much that I have to clip them at least once a week my hair feels thicker and my knees and ankles feel a whole lot better!The only con I have is the price for a three week supply, either bring the price down or make it a month supply! 🙏🏼Update: I received this on the 24th of February and I should have enough to take one scoop till the 16th of March, today is March 14th and I just made my drink and there’s not enough left to make a whole scoop, it’s missing more than a scoop and a half 😐 not happy about that.Update 4/13/2024I may not be happy about price and serving size but I will definitely continue to buy! I have no more joint pain, I feel great!

I like using this in my smoothies. Tastes is just ok, but I think it helps my joints.

The first time I tried mixing it, it was with 6-8 ounces of cold water, and it wouldn't mix; I drank it all clumped up. Then, I read one reviewer's suggestion to mix it using a small amount of hot water. This is what I do every day: in a coffee cup or mug, heat up 1/4 cup water to boiling, let it cool a few seconds, then mix in the powder and stir. It dissolves beautifully. Then I add 3/4 cup cold water, stir and drink. It doesn't taste good, but I don't care.My knee pain is still present sometimes, but very rarely, and if it is present it is temporary (gone by next day rather than lingering several days). I can do deep knee bends in dance classes again.. I believe this product has made the difference. I am doing things I never thought I could do again without pain. I was diagnosed with runner's knee in my left knee several years ago, and had been struggling with it for a couple years before that. I am very happy to have found this product.ETA: One caveat: I recommend drinking this not only on an empty stomach - but also first thing in the morning if possible. I noticed my knee pain came back a little more if I ate it between meals, even if my stomach was empty. I have no issues if I drink it first thing in the morning and then waiting 20-30 min or so to eat my breakfast.

Really works with joints. I’ve been taking this daily for years and has made a big difference on my knees.
