Answer 1

If  you want a fish oil, I take all vegan "fish oils", it's made from seeds like flax, green tea oil, borage oil, avacado oils, etc.  It's called Dr. Ohhira's.  I have bad knees and I try not to take anything like advil, alieve, etc, instead I invested in a really great heating pad and use that when I get pain.  You can also soak in Epsom salts...it's old school but it works.

Answer 2

i think you will find teh main benefits are from omega3 simply do a search among vegtables for item high in this .

Answer 3

voltaren sup 50gr

Answer 4

Flax seed (vegetarian omega fatty acids) and plant-sourced hyaluronic acid are both good options.  Of course, it can be tough finding the latter in non-gelatin capsules.

Answer 5

I take flax seed oil, it's high in omega 3 and it comes from plant sources. It can be bought in capsule for or oil form, the oil form tastes a bit yuckier but it doesn't have gelatine capsules.

Answer 9

I ama former chef and now a lacto-ovo vegetarian and have severe arthritis and osteoporosis, I take a natural product not in a gelatin capsule, it is wild nettle extract and it has helped me amazingly, it is from the wild nettle plant and is the extract and leaves in a concentrated form, I buy it at a a natural food store, but in some places you can find both the tablets and nettle tea, it is nice to and like chamomille tea it is a nice relaxing pre bedtime relaxer.

Those other things like glucosimine are made from oyster shells and animal products.

Glucosamine is often made from the shells of shellfish, but you can find it made from fermented grain-it costs more. Ask at your local health food store.
