Anyone heard of Thrive or take Thrive by Le-Vel?



Recommended Posts

There are no clinical studies on efficacy of the claims this product makes, and there are side effects with some of it, not just Vitamins as ingredients, makes claims to block carbs, etc etc....

Yes Thrive has Vitamins and minerals, but it also has stimulants. I've researched Thrive for the past 6 months and I have found this company to be average, if not below average. There list of vitamins and minerals is of the usual. There is no evidence where these products originated from, though they claim to be premium. With no evidence of such I cannot let them lay claim to it. Nutrition is based off of science and studies, Thrive is missing both. Another short coming of Thrive is there use of proprietary blends. Companies that include these blends are mostly the lowest of companies. They can fill there products with more of the least expensive products and less of the most expensive (purest) products, and the user has no clue how much there ingesting. Companies that use proprietary blends don't have to release ingredient quantities. Some will give the excuse that it's purely to protect the secret recipe, but this is all hawgwash. If a top company truly wanted to copy the they could run a lab test to find quantities. Plus they would face legal action even if it is patent pending. If you take the effective doses of the ingredients in proprietary blend it far exceeds what the number mg provided on the label. This means they are skimping out somewhere. My advice is to find a more transparent company, one without stimulants. You don't need them.

I know this thread is super old. I am planning on taking some of their new product for protien and hair skin nails type of things. I am going to be documenting but surgeon doesn’t want me to take anything til a few weeks after surgery and I won’t be taking anything that has too much of the stimulants. I love the lifestyle mix, the protien shake, the Protein Bars and the hydration (the one without caffiene)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
