I like Knox(R) gelatine w/ glucosamine b/c it has 10,000 mg of chondroitin per scoop. It is tasteless and stirs into milk, orange juice, water, or protein shakes. It is relatively inexpensive at Wal-Mart or Sam's Club.

I started taking glucosamine and chondroitin about 3 months ago. The changes are subtle, but I used to have a hard time sleeping because of joint pain in my shoulders after working out. Now I hardly notice it so it must be working. Supposedly, you have to take it for a month before you begin noticing results.

I used to have terrible joint pain in my shoulders and knees. Started taking 2 tbsp. of Udo's Choice Oil Blend and two Osteo-BiFlex triple-strength capsules every day. Pain went away and hasn't come back.
Do or do not, there is no try.

glucosamine for me
I decided to try straight Glucosamine Sulfate from Optimum, i figured i love their 100% whey, why not try their glucosamine, it was cheaper than other brands on the cyberstore. I must say glucsosamine REALLY works, I had a dislocated shoulder due to a seizure not too long ago and although i've been working out and stuff, my shoulder didn't seem to get better, so I did some research on this site and chose to go for glucosamine sulfate. I was thinkin of getting a glucosamine chondroitin but then I read something about chondroitin not absorbing too well. Anyway after just one month of using it, my shoulder feels almost completely better. I have a greater range of motion on my bad shoulder and it's gettin better noticably. I'm sure any brand glucosamine sulfate would have worked just as well. Glucosamine sulfate worked so well for me that i was really adamant about my father taking it as he's gettin old and feels arthritic pains a lot more now.

I have a herniated disc in my back...think Gluco, msm, and chondr would help or is it more for knees and elbow joint type stuff?

develop a daily stretching routine around getting flexability in the hamstrings & lower back.
90% of the time it's lack of flexability through the hammies and lower back and a stength imbalance between the lower back & abs the causes the injury in the first place.
stretch whenever you get time as many times a day as you can.
when i had the same condition i felt much better after a good stretching session.
also plenty of crunches to strengthen the abs. don't do any lower back work if it's a new injury.
this will work in conjunction with the above supps you mentioned.
add some flax or fish oil as well.
