for mineral deficiencies include the elderly because of deteriorating
digestion, children and teenagers because of poor diet, individuals who have
an eating disorder, and anyone suffering from a chronic disease. Taking
certain prescription medications can also result in mineral deficiencies.
Because the mineral content of fruits and vegetables depends on the soil
health of the crop it is grown in, even a healthy individual who maintains a
good diet can be at risk for a mineral deficiency because of mineral-depleted
soil. By their very nature, minerals are not particularly well absorbed by the
human body. In addition, various dietary, lifestyle, and health factors can
have a negative impact on mineral absorption. One of the barriers to mineral
absorption is overcoming the natural form the mineral comes in. Thorne’s
mineral ingredients are primarily in their chelated form – the mineral is
linked to an amino acid or an organic acid via a molecular reaction that
provides a predictable, high quality, and hypoallergenic chelate. Thorne’s
mineral supplements are designed for optimal absorption. 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
