Beware of Consumer recommendations !
In the case of the Glucosamine study, order of recommendation is given basically on price per day. Today I bought at my local supermarket 200 doses of Healtheries Jointex (97% of glucosamine) for $41.00 which works at 20.5 cents a day : twice better than the brand to which Consumer gives the top mark !

You did not read all their information given.
Consumer did have a comment that the pricing was based "on the day" and that if you found any of their recommended products on sale ... buy them.
I thought this would be obvious with any reviews on products and pricing, they can only price it when they're producing their report.
