Pros & Cons
Pros
This is great for anyone that has oxalate kidney stones. I sweat; my electrolytes (potassium) get used up; my pvcs flare up; and, i need to supplement. Effective way to alkalize.
Thorne is a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. Good quality supplement at an affordable price. Thorne research has quality products period.
After the first pill crams were gone. Everything they make is very pure and doesn't upset your stomach because they are capsules. They are like mini capsules! Perfect for swallowing and will definitely be buying from thorne research in the future.
Cons
I’m a user of thorne products, but his one hurt my stomach as described in other reviews. I believe that's due to an electrolyte imbalance.
Highlights
Quality
Excellent quality and effectiveness as part of my regimen for a leg-cramp free life!
This brand is of excellent quality and high absorption
One pill twice a day did away with the cramps in two days.
It's an unnecessary inconvenience that leaves me taking 8 of them daily, when capsules can be made in virtually any strength.
Price
After my last stone bout, my doc prescribed some ridiculously expensive and painfully huge horse pills; these were a welcome substitute.
Good quality supplement at an affordable price.
I just wish the price was a little cheaper.
Less than from doctor; although the price has increased since my last order.
Competitiveness
I love the capsules so much more than tablet forms i've ordered from other brands.
This has done the best job over all the other brands we've tried over the years.
I've started using thorne research a while back, and the vit d works well, so i'm staying with thorne on the potassium.
