I want to share my story about my experience with GLOW collagen, sorry if it’s lengthy.
I am a long-term sufferer of chronic pain with a history of degenerative disc disease(DDD), SI joint dysfunction, some osteoarthritis, and bulging (lower lumber) discs. In my twenties, a surgeon said I had the spine of a seventy-year-old and wanted to fuse it, but I’ve persevered with exercise and self-care to keep myself out of the operating room.
Then after having my children I developed severe endometriosis, and constant pain from that as well as my back problems were something I had to learn to live with. So now I started to struggle with insomnia, it’s hard to sleep when you hurt so much! I was getting on average 2 hours of only light sleep, (no deep restorative sleep needed for healing and body repair). With the help of medications and a team of specialists, I have managed to hold down my job as a hospital pharmacist working with cancer patients, but it’s been life-changing and challenging.
I’ve always had an interest in holistic/integrative medicine as well as conventional medicine and was already on the collagen supplement bandwagon. I had been adding 5 g of a marine-based, odorless, tasteless powder to my morning workout drink. However when I read the testimony of a friend saying how this brand of liquid collagen had helped her joint pain with better absorption than the one I was using I really felt I had to give it a try.
I am writing this testimonial just 3 weeks after starting the liquid Glow collagen because the results were that fast. Last week I vacuumed for the first time since April, and this weekend I managed to tackle the garden for the first time this year.
I am also sleeping better, probably from reduced pain although the glycine in the GLOW may be helping. The adhesions around my C-section that have been more troublesome than you could possibly imagine also seem to be softening up and with the associated chronic pelvic pain easing. I also had recently developed joint pain in my hands and feet as a side effect of a medication used to treat my endometriosis (that suppresses my hormones and puts me into medical menopause, and causes significant bone loss), and now the pain has practically disappeared. To be transparent I am not entirely pain-free, and I do still have some nerve pain and restless legs but I’m hoping the biotin in the GLOW may help with that too.
Regardless I’m so impressed with the difference in my pain level I will be continuing to use GLOW moving forward. I have hardly had to use any pain medicine these last few weeks which is AMAZING. I truly believe in the value of this product for me, so much so that I’m now a consultant with Tranont so I can share with others. I genuinely can’t wait to try some of the other products from this company.
