The life of a health walnut can sometimes be brutal. Each season comes a new trend often strange - each claiming to be the best solution to our nation's collective health.

Gelatin is not only beneficial for belly, but can also strengthen bones and joints and relieve arthritis' pain and deterioration of age-related joints.

More research must be done to better understand the effectiveness of glucosamine.
