New formula, doesn't relieve pain anymore
I have been buying this for years. It phenomenally helps a problem I have in my elbow. When I stop taking it, the issue returns. When I start taking it, the discomfort goes away.
Until the last few cartons I bought.
When I opened them I noticed the texture and color was different.
I mixed it and it didn't mix as well.
Nonetheless, I don't care about that as long as it's helpful.
There was no change in discomfort in my elbow.
I called the company to discuss. She said sometimes the color varies. They sent me a carton. This was precisely from them so I know it's correct. This product had the new color and the new texture and did not reduce discomfort.
I traveled to Trader Joes to buy the containers they had there. When I opened them, I noticed they were the previous color. This product was effective, within ONE DAY the discomfort was gone.
I went back to Trader Joes later and bought more. It was the new formula.
I no longer buy this product. The changed formula doesn't reduce discomfort. It doesn't mix well.
OLD FORMULA:
- White
- Reduces joint discomfort
- Mixes well
- Weak taste
NEW FORMULA
- Yellow
- Doesn't reduce joint discomfort
- Doesn't mix well
- Strong taste
I've sent picture so you can see.
