We called it realizing \u201cgenetic potential\u201d for good health. Today, it\u2019s known as the science of nutrigenomics\u2014the study of food as one of the most important environmental modifiers of gene expression in determining health and disease patterns. Through our substantial and ongoing commitment to nutrigenomic research, we\u2019ve been able to identify natural compounds with powerful therapeutic applications, to be used in our science-based TLC programs, medical foods, and nutraceuticals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Knowing that professionals rely on us to make people feel better isn\u2019t something we take lightly. It\u2019s the reason we lead the industry in research, professional education, and quality manufacturing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But we\u2019re also brave enough to search for the next big thing to make an even greater impact on health. The result? An impressive list of patented formulas and ingredients, and a revolutionary product development process to help make natural approaches even safer and more effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether you\u2019re a patient or a health care provider, be your best with Metagenics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At Thorne, being able to rely on the safety and efficacy of our nutritional supplement products is the motivating force behind our clinical trials program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our confidence that each product we formulate and manufacture works in the body comes from extensive clinical research and medical literature that substantiate the presence of each ingredient in each formula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition to confirming the efficacy of our products, clinical research helps us better understand their efficacy.
