I understand that you're just trying to do your job as a rep for Strong Supplement Shop and promote the products that they want you to, and I completely understand you mentioning it in this thread when we were out of Joint Support XT - which you had already done in one of the first couple of posts in the thread.
The thread name is literally "Joint Support XT Unavailable" - and my post was to let people know that it was back in stock.
Following up on my announcement that Joint Support XT is back in stock by calling that product an alternative to it isn't something that you would normally do and is out of character for you.
Strong had just placed an order for Joint Support XT to restock on it; but if the plan is to use it as a bait and switch to try to get people to use the product you mentioned, then maybe its best if I speak with them about it because I'd rather they not even carry Joint Support XT than to use it to try to switch people to a lesser product.

Things like this put me in a bad spot because I don't like to compare products or come off as saying anything negative about other companies products - but you're the one that called it an alternative to it, so that puts me in a position where I feel like I have to reply and explain that while that product may loosely fall into the same category of being a joint health supplement, it is not comparable to Joint Support XT at all.
That product is an viable option for people that are looking for a super cheap joint support formula like something they would buy at Walmart or the grocery store; as in something that is intentionally formulated to be profitable when sold for less than 20.00, but it is not comparable to Joint Support XT in any way.
There is a huge difference between products that use premium clinically researched branded ingredients and specific extracts from products that use underdosed ingredients as window dressing and contain herbal ingredients in powder form rather than extracts.
Joint Support XT is a joint support formula that contains 5 clinically researched ingredients and 4 licensed branded ingredients all at their clinically efficacious dosages, including NEM Eggshell Membrane that has real clinical studies showing relief of joint pain and discomfort in 7 days.
Joint Support XT also contains the clinically researched dosages of all of the active ingredients; whereas Joyful contains a lot of things in there that may look good on the label to an unknowing consumer but really are nowhere near the effective dosage level (like MSM at 500 mg. or Cissus powder at 600 mg.) and some of the ingredients are just the herbal powder form, not even an extract (like Curcumin powder and Cissus Powder rather than extracts).
There are only 3 common ingredients between the formulas:
- Glucosamine
- Bioperine (Joint Support XT has double the amount of Bioperine)
- Curcumin - and for a curcumin source, Joyful contains Turmeric/Curcumin powder; not even an extract, whereas Joint Support XT contains Sabinsa's clinically researched C3 Curcumin Complex that has over 75+ studies on it.
There used to never be any issues on here with Strong or anyone associated with Strong trying to use discussions about SNS products to try to promote their own. Stuff like this has happened several times lately, and I spoke to Strong about this within the past 2 weeks, who assured me that he didn't know about it and it wasn't intentional and wouldn't happen again.
I'll reiterate what I already told him, that if stuff like this is going to become the norm on here and the new approach with Strong is going to be to try to promote their brands over ours on here, then I'll find somewhere else to share product, news, and sales information - and in the meantime, any time that it happens, to expect me to reply with a full on product breakdown like above.
