Thorne: focus on Healthy Aging
Thorne has developed a number of formulas specifically focused on healthy aging for body and mind.
Getting older is part of life, and we prefer to do it with as little discomfort as possible. Whether we succeed in doing so depends on our genes and other factors. We can have a positive influence on the latter through our lifestyle: healthy food, good sleep and sufficient exercise. Unfortunately, this is not always possible or the circumstances are not optimal, such as stress, medication or air pollution. In those cases, quality customized supplements can make all the difference.
Thorne does a lot of research into healthy aging and uses only ingredients of the purest quality and in the best absorbable forms. To increase absorbability, Thorne does not use excipients, which may speed up the manufacturing process but often actually hinder absorption or can cause allergies.
In addition to a Basic Multi for women and men over 50 (Women's Multi 50+ and Men's Multi 50+), we carry the following Thorne products for those over 50:
A more advanced, highly complete multivitamin and mineral preparation supplemented with powerful antioxidants. Provides support for the immune system, energy balance and vision, among others.
A comprehensive formula for the body and mind that includes so-called greens, a mushroom complex, antioxidants and adaptogens. For supporting a healthy immune system, cholesterol levels, blood vessels and stamina, among other things.
Polyresveratrol: formula for the immune system, for healthy cells and tissues, and for the heart.
ResveraCel: formula for increased energy.
Brain Factors: formula for the brain with coffee fruit extract.
Memoractiv: formula for the ability to concentrate.
Joint Support Nutrients (formerly AR-Encap): formula for the joints.
Collagen Plus: formula for the skin.
Bonusan Multi Vital Extensis Active
Highly dosed and complete multi especially for fifty plus
Multi Vital Extensis Active is a balanced multivitamin for people over fifty and older. This multivitamin helps maintain strong bones thanks to calcium and magnesium, among others. Iron, iodine and zinc have been added for cognitive function, and the normal functioning of the heart is supported by vitamin B1. This makes Multi Vital Extensis Active the multivitamin for those getting older.
In addition to all the important vitamins and minerals in easily absorbable forms, Multi Vital Extensis Active contains DMAE, Milk Thistle, Astragalus, Ginkgo Biloba, Panax Ginseng, Lutein, Lycopene and Alpha-Lipoic Acid, among others.
Multivitamin and mineral preparation especially for 50+
Every Day 50+ (available in tablet and capsule form) is a carefully developed multivitamin and mineral preparation specifically for 50+. For example, it contains alpha lipoic acid and pterostilbene. The body's nutritional needs change with age. For example, the need for iron and copper decreases. Excessive intake of these minerals can have potentially undesirable consequences in old age. For this reason, Every Day 50+ does not contain iron and copper.
