Speaker: Larissa Jones
Question 1 of 3: Describe a specific moment when your joint pain stopped you from doing something you love and how that felt.
Larissa Jones: Hi, I'm Larissa, and my joint pain stopped me from being able to work my 9 to 5 at a pharmacy that I've been at. I've been in pharmacy for about a decade. It also stopped me from being able to make art. My hands hurt so much, so it debilitated me, put me on disability. I decided that I would try something new. But yeah, I also couldn't braid my husband's hair, which he has long, awesome hair. I couldn't wash my own hair very well or without pain, so it is gone. I chopped my hair off due to my joint pain. I also do like it short, but that was a big factor in my daily quality of life.
Question 2 of 3: What made you finally try GLX3, and how soon did you realize it was different from everything else you’d tried?"
Larissa Jones: I finally decided to try GLX3 because of Andrew's videos on Instagram. And then I saw them on TikTok, and it just seemed very genuine. OK, and I love the family founder owned companies. I love that. I definitely support small family founder owned businesses. On top of that, I don't like fish oil. I don't take fish oil, and this was something different. And I'm in my 3rd bottle. I'm just about done with my 3rd bottle, and I have had some decent relief in some specific areas. Not all areas yet, or at this point where my arthritis is, but in my hands, oh man, I haven't had to wear my gloves to bed. I haven't had to wear like compression gloves or my copper, like my circulation things for my hands specifically. And I'm very excited about that. So I would say just very recently that I realized that it is different from other things that I've tried. I, I last year I spent The entire summer poisoning myself with a bunch of different drugs for pain or off-label pain use. And I don't like ibuprofen. I have a slow gut. I've got a connective tissue disorder that makes just everything in my body, collagen-wise, work differently. And ibuprofen turns things off in your system for healing when you take it, even though it's relieving for some people. And so I've just been, Living in pain for over a year. Consistently.
Last Question: Now that you're back in action, what’s the best part about having your life back?"
Larissa Jones: The best part of having my life back in these aspects, is I'm making art again, and I'm so excited about that. That was really bringing me down, not being able to create as much as I wanted to. And I no longer have to tell my husband that he can only get his hair braided in the morning when my hands are fresh and they're not tired and angry at the end of the day. I can braid his hair whenever I like now, cause I did put that off for a while cause the intricate little, oh like sewing, oh, it was just not fun at all. So these are some quality of life giver backers that has happened for me.
