Product Description

Thorne
GI Support

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.

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.

Good quality product, but note the higher 500 mg dosage! It is usually sold in 100 mg capsules, so unless you have certain infections, you won't need the higher amount. In Stephen Buhner's book "Herbal Antibiotics", page 149 he states "...Lyme disease caution: Artemisinin is extremely safe when used appropriately; that is in doses around 1200 mg daily, for seven days. If it is used long term in high doses there is significant risk of neurotoxicity..." The dose for Babesia, according to Buhner's "Healing Lyme" book, p.180 is 100 mg/ 3x's daily for 30-40 days. The dosage for Lyme is 300-500 mg daily for 30-40 days.I opted for the higher dose in one capsule, since I am taking multiple herbs/detox tablets and it made it easier in my Lyme/Bartonella battle. According to Buhner, the dosage for Malaria is 500-1000 mg the first day, then 500 mg daily for four more days (p184 Healing Lyme). You may experience a herx reaction at higher doses, so keep up with detox support when taking this. Artemisinin is effective for clearing fevers, protozoan infections, toxoplasma gondii, some types of liver flukes, nail fungus and of course, Malaria. An excellent product, from a reputable company! Just remember to watch your dose and know what you're using it for.

As a naturopath who happens to have lupus, I'm always using things from nature first as they tend to have little to no side effects. There are many naturopathic studies (in the US, Canada and Europe) that shows the effectiveness of Articen on suppressing the immune system. It works incredibly well, so only take if you are looking for a natural immunosuppressant (and directed how much to take, for how long, by a naturopath or homeopath).

I recommend Thorne Research products as they are consistently high quality without breaking the bank.

In reading other reviews, I see that people take Artecin for a variety of reasons. In my own case, I have taken it, along with olive leaf extract for preventing malaria on trips to Africa, and in the last three years, for keeping Lyme disease and co-infections (Babesia, Bartonella and Ehrlichia) under control. For that second purpose, I will likely take Artecin daily for the rest of my life.

Taking Artecin, along with several other supplements, has brought me the greatest improvements in symptoms over the last nearly three years that I have seen in the approximately 25 years that I have had Lyme disease and its co-infections. The improvements in symptoms number about ten, and included within that was an improvement in blood sugar stability (versus hypoglycemia). This allowed me, with diet and exercise, to lose 50 pounds from mid-February to Christmas day in 2012.

We use this to treat Babesia (as recommended by our LLMD). I like that is a higher dosage that can be taken in a single pill twice a day. We are not 100% cured, but this brand seems to be offering us gradual improvement. Nutramedix Takuna and other liposmal treatments can be taken alongside of this to improve Babesia treatment.

As always, see your doctor before trying any of the above.

After much research I purchased this for use in treating my cat's mammary cancer. I give her 100 mg's 2x per day These larger mg pills are perfect for this. I purchased a pill maker on Amazon and empty capsules, and empty these Thorne pills onto the pill maker. 10 of these 500mg = 5,000mg and with a 50 pill maker ends up being 100 mg per pill. Perfect! I will buy again.

Probably effective, but I have liver disease so can’t take lot of supplements safely, but do take some safely. This caused my liver enzymes to go high after 1st dose, my liver was hot and swollen for a week, similar feeling to a chemotherapy which is quite toxic
