It wouldn't matter if it's slightly adjusted because it doesn't contain the same ratio of ingredients your patented blend would have. It doesn't matter how close another company would want to mimic your formula, if it's patented, they can't copy it down to the teeth but they can put out something similar. The reason you would patent it is because the ratios are just right to provide the ideal effect. I guess that's why there's 100 other "propietary blends" out there just like it but wiht different amounts of whatever in it. All it comes down to is brand name and marketing then...
Good point danny. Just like multiple vitamins. There are so many brands out there how do you know one is better than another. If a company patents a product or a ratio there must be a reason. Like a protein to carb ratio as a example that is patented must be for a reason. They got it down to the Teeth.
