Mr Elsafy’ product is for arthritis which will complete the series on arthritis. I will add that I have no connection with either of these companies or products to be presented by Mr Chapman or Mr Elsafy and found them through contact with publicists. I received samples and passed them on to friends suffering from arthritis or back pain and received positive reports back. I offer these interviews to sufferers because of my interest in natural products and supplements instead of harsh chemicals in the treatment for pain.
