Bioavailability
What if the label of the natural health products we buy didn’t always tell the whole story? Or what if it did, but you didn’t like what you read?!
A few cents shaved off here and there in the cost of goods and the cost of manufacturing quickly adds up to huge profits for huge corporations. And when competition for shelf space heats up, it’s usually the quality of the product that is the first victim.
When you read the label, you assume you’re buying the potent, high-quality part of a medicinal plant, when you could only be getting the cheaper twig! There also can be some ingredients on the label with hard-to-pronounce names that the manufacturer doesn’t want you to know why it’s there. For example, magnesium stearate is a commonly used manufacturing aid – it’s used as a lubricant – that prevents the ingredients in your pill from gumming up the machinery at the factory. The machines run faster, but this saturated fatty acid can be very difficult for many individuals to digest, thus blocking the absorption of the very nutrient you purchased. Other binders, fillers, and excipients used in making tablets can be a problem for individuals with allergies and other sensitivities.
Tesseract products are never compromised in terms of raw materials and manufacturing processes. And for good reason! Tesseract’s founder, Al Czap, previously Founder and CEO of Thorne Research, created the industry standard for ingredient purity and manufacturing integrity. The rigorous protocols he developed over the span of his research and studies are an integral part of Tesseract’s products.
It’s no good having the very best nutrient delivery technology if the ingredients are also not of the highest quality and integrity. THAT’S the Tesseract difference: quality and integrity.
