Amino acids as supplements only work if you were deficient in that one amino acid. There are 23, and it's hard to know which one you're short on. Taking higher doses of one that you're not deficient in just means expensive pee.

A general multivitamin, bonus calcium/magnesium, sufficient protein in the diet, fruits and veggies, a rolling pin over the thighs, heating pads, and more bubblebaths. That's what seems to help for me!
