Why did Dr. Shoemaker switch joint support products?

I switched joint repair supplements for two reasons.  The first reason is cost, Ultimate Joint Repair costs less than the product that we previously carried.  The second reason is that it has additional ingredients compared to other joint repair products.

Ultimate Joint Repair has glucosamine sulfate, chondroitin sulfate and MSM in the dosage which is supported by research.

In addition to these foundational components, Ultimate Joint Repair has anti-inflammatory essential fatty acids (EPA from fish oils), enzymes (Bromoline from pineapple) and herbs (Boswelia, Tumeric and Ginger). No other joint repair product has ALL of these ingredients in one product!

This is important because the anti-inflammatory component will help relieve pain and stiffness while your body uses the rebuilding component of this product to repair joint cartilage.
