Read more The gut isn’t just the stomach. The gut is the
entire digestive tract (from the mouth to the rectum) and is a complex mix of
organs, microbes, hormones, and enzymes. How this complex mix of organs
interacts dictates how well you will absorb the foods you eat. So what happens
or doesn’t happen in your gut will inevitably impact your daily lifestyle.
Because the digestive tract delivers the nutrients we eat to our bodies, there
are many steps we can take to make sure we reap the full reward from these
nutrients in terms of absorption, especially if someone is prone to gas,
bloating, acid reflux, constipation, or other distress after eating. Optimal
functioning of the gastrointestinal tract is vital to nutrient absorption,
nutrient synthesis, the production of short-chain fatty acids for colon
health, the elimination of waste, and proper immune function. An unhealthy
diet, insufficient digestive enzymes, and taking various prescriptions can
cause imbalances in the gut flora. That’s why supplementation is important,
and it’s is why Thorne offers well-researched, high-quality supplements that
support a healthy gut. Read more When the highest standards have been met,
Thorne creates higher ones. Sourcing Exceptional Ingredients We develop better
standards for higher quality ingredients. Thorne cares deeply about where our
ingredients come from. We partner only with suppliers whose practices
emphasize quality, science, and responsibility. Better ingredients means
better potency, absorption, and digestibility – and ultimately better health.
Manufacturing the Right Way We manufacture our own products to ensure full
supply chain transparency. For more than 30 years, we have invested in clean
manufacturing practices. We refuse to use ingredients that can inhibit
absorption. We perform our final production in the United States. Our
Charleston, SC facility is third-party certified. Four Rounds of Testing We
run four rounds of testing for each of our products. We have invested in two
state-of-the-art in-house laboratories that allow us to conduct four rounds of
testing, while most competitors test only one or two times. We test our raw
materials, in-process batches, finish products, and product stability for each
product. Thinking Sustainably We’re thinking sustainably to protect our
environment. We believe the environment should never be compromised for the
sake of business gain. At Thorne, we believe that doing our part to protect
the environment and its most valuable resources goes hand in hand with our
product quality standards. Read more
