My husband and I use it for stiff joints mixed with grape juice every morning. It has helped our finger and knee joints a lot. Before Jerry could hardly open his hands in the morning and now he doesn't have any trouble.

IT IS A SHAME THAT THE DECISION TO REMOVE PECTIN FROM KAOPECTATE, AS IT IS EFFECTIVE!! COMMON SENSE. I GUESS I WILL TAKE PECTIN ON THE SIDE. THE SIMPLEST SOLUTIONS ARE ALWAYS SHOT DOWN FOR THE MORE EXPENSIVE AND INEFFECTIVE.

After using first day, i realized they eased the irritation, but for very short duration. So i looked at active ingredients and found only one, pectin(7mg). The recommended dosage is every 2 hours or as needed. I needed about 30 minutes after dissolved in mouth.Read More Read Less

Actually I don't know what it did for cholesterol, and now that I know more about cholesterol I have no concerns. But I did have arthritis - pretty bad at times. Since started taking pectin, the arthritis is gone, completely gone. Did some more research and seems pectin is an grandma's old fashion home remedy for many things, including arthritis. Also started giving it to my old dog and it has really helped his joints also. Think you'll get best result by also taking a joint support supplement, which is what I was doing, but adding pectin really made the stuff work. BTW, initially took a lot, like 4-6 times the amount recommended on the bottle.Read More Read Less
