I don't know what can be fairer, Becky - I have no vested interest in the product or the company or any existing product or company or anything to do with knee surgeries. What I do have is experience reading scientific studies. Usually, the studies lay out tables of data to allow readers to see what the basis for the conclusions were. Usually, they are published in recognized, peer reviewed journals. Often they suggest where follow up studies need to be made. I have never seen a single study with a small sample size and short period make such sweeping generalizations. I know you are a gung ho supporter of the product and I am glad that it worked for you and your family. Just don't get on a public forum and try to tell us that this is convincing scientific evidence backing up the claims you make. Your evidence is anectodal.
That being said, I appreciate you making the study available and look forward with interest to any others you post in the future.
