Q:What is the difference between Super Blue Stuff OTC and Super White Stuff OTC?

A:Super White Stuff OTC uses the same great formula as our Super Blue Stuff OTC line of pain relief cream. While our Super Blue Stuff OTC product contains the pleasant fragrance of peaches with undertones of peppermint and .5% blue dye, our Super White Stuff OTC does not contain any added fragrance or dye making it a more natural product.

Q: What is the difference between Blue Stuff, Super Blue Stuff, Super Stuff and Super Blue Stuff OTC?
A.

• Blue Stuff was the original “blue” name for our product as well as the name of the original company that manufactured it.
• After several months with this name the ingredients were modified and slightly improved and the name was changed to Super Blue Stuff.
• Super Stuff had has similar ingredients to Super Blue Stuff but without the fragrance or coloring (hence no “blue” in the name).
• Super Blue Stuff OTC is the result of slightly modifying the ingredients of Super Blue Stuff to meet all FDA guidelines as an Over-The-Counter (OTC) pain relief product. The main difference is a slightly higher menthol level.

Q:What is new about Super Blue Stuff OTC Pain Relief Cream with Emu Oil?

A:Packaging and Look:

• New Blue Spring Logo
• New updated packaging (hard for imitators to copy)
• Easier for you to recognize Blue Spring the next time you see us
• All Blue Spring packaging will be changed to the same look through 2007 and 2008

Slightly updated formula:

• Blue Spring Boosted the factor of Natural Herbs by a factor of up to 10 each
• German Chamomile has been added back. This was in the original favorite formula. It is an herb that has been used by herbalists for hundreds of years because of helping the body work better with its healing and anti-inflammatory properties.
• The level of MSM has been raised by approximately 80%
• The menthol amount has been balanced to avoid an overly cold or burning sensation. However – Super Blue Stuff OTC Pain Relief Cream is just as effective or more so than ever.
• Abscorbyl Palmitate (Vitamin C Ester and Essential Fatty Acids) has been boosted by a factor of 10.
• Arnica has been removed because it caused a burning sensation to some of the Blue Spring customers
• Capsicum Oleoresin has been removed because it was at such a low level it had no effect
• Glucosamine – a favorite in the original formula has been added back. Glucosamine has been proven in numerous double blind, placebo-controlled studies to aid the body to work better by easing the pain of arthritis. Glucosamine has also been shown to aid the body in the rehabilitation of cartilage and slow down the progression of osteoarthritis.

Super Blue Stuff OTC Pain Relief Cream with Emu Oil is now even more Natural:

• Parabens (methylparaben and propylparaben) and Diazolidnyl Urea (all used as preservatives) have been removed.
• Natural Vitamin E and Natural Grape Seed Oil Extract are now used as preservatives.
• Disodium EDTA (a sodium salt) and 2-Phenoxethanol (an oily liquid used to prevent bacteria) are also used in small amounts as preservatives. These are health friendlier ingredients than what they replaced.
• Sodium Laurel Sulfate – used as a cleansing agent- was replaced with a more natural (bean derived) Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate
• Blue Dye was reduced by 99.5%, however SuperBlue Stuff OTC Pain relief Cream with Emu Oil is still blue. Why? Because the Blue Spring customers love it. Blue is a soothing, peaceful and therapeutic color.

Q: How did you get the name "Blue Stuff"?
A. When the product was first introduced the color blue was chosen because of its soothing psychological effect. It was given the name of A.J.'s Balm (after A.J.'s restaurant that the inventor, Jack McClung, owned at the time he first sold the product). After the product became so popular that the restaurant was closed, the name was changed to Emu-gesic Balm. A female customer called from the East Coast and tried to order it. She was unable to remember the rather difficult name of the product and said, "Just send me some of that blue stuff. Why don't you make it simple and just call it Blue Stuff?" And Jack, always one to know a good idea when he heard it, changed the name of the product just in time for the world to hear about it.?
