Thero Kidney Support Plus Review

Threo takes health back to nature by keeping their ingredients as pure as possible. I received Kidney Support Plus to review.


Health:

I haven't mentioned this on the blog very much, but my asthma is out of wack once again. I'm trying to be healthier. I eat fairly healthy, but am tired from working, so I don't exercise as much as I should. I also think I have allergens to some foods. I know Omaha's air quality is horrible. I'm trying a few things (one at a time) to help detox my system.

One of the filters in the body is the kidney's. I'm starting with Kidney Support Plus. I've never had a bladder or urinary tract infection, but I still think I need to take care of my kidneys. These pills really can't hurt anything.

Ingredients:

  • Organic Fruit and Berry Juice - Whole Powder Blend
  • Lemon
  • Amla Fruit
  • Acai Berry
  • Blackberry
  • Goji Fruit
  • Blueberry
  • Noni Fruit 
  • Maqui Berry
  • Mangosteen Fruit
  • Hawthorne Berry
  • Cranberry
  • Concord Grape
  • Banana
  • Apple
  • Pomegranate
  • Strawberry
  • Red Raspberry
  • Orange 
  • Pineapple
  • Cherry

There are other veggie ingredients, but the fruits above are most of the things in the pills. Most of the ingredients I've heard of. There were a few berries that were new to me.



Perks With Threo Kidney Support Plus:
  • Farm Fresh
  • Gluten Free
  • Soy Free
  • Dairy Free
  • Vegetarian
  • Raw
  • Non GMO
  • 30 Billion CFU's
  • 10 Probiotic Strains
  • Can be kept room temperature
  • Long shelf life
  • Vegetarian Plant Gelatin Capsule


They produce 100% pure, raw food supplements to support health using a proprietary low-temperature drying process.

Why Support Your Kidneys? 

The kidneys are one of the most important systems in your body and are tirelessly working hard every day of the year. They are the body’s great waste collectors, and are necessary components to bladder and urinary tract health. By flushing your kidneys of toxins and proactively fighting bacteria, you are able to recognize optimal kidney function. Prime kidney health means fewer infections and better bladder control. As I age bladder control is a slight issue. It's not huge, but if I have to go, I have to go. All the more reason for me to take this.

Why Choose Threo Kidney Support? 

Their product uses a proprietary blend of 42 whole food, raw ingredients formulated to support and rejuvenate kidney health. A main component of our is blend cranberries, a superfruit high in proanthocyanidins, thought to prevent bacteria from clinging to urinary tract walls. By taking this supplement blend, you are able to have confidence in your body’s ability to fight infection and eliminate toxins.

Benefits of Threo Kidney Support:

  • Contains a large amount of raw cranberry extract, which supports urinary tract health 
  • Targeted support aimed specifically at kidneys, bladder and urinary tract system 
  • Assists in the normal function of kidneys to remove waste material from the body  ​
  • 100% pure, vegetable-based raw supplement


The Negatives:

  • There's too much unused space in the bottle. I wish Threo just used a smaller bottle for these pills. It's slightly more than 1/2 full. 
  • They also misspelled "organic" on the front of the bottle. They spelled it, "organinc".

Cost:

$15.99 with Prime, so if you are a Prime Member you'll get free shipping.

Have you ever taken cranberry pills?

Threo Probiotic Review

Probiotics have been my long time go to thing if Mica or Isaak has an eczema spot, if one of us is on antibotics - probiotics puts good bacteria back into the system, one of us has a tummy issues, or to prevent sickness.

Recently I got Threo Probiotic to review.


I'm a college instructor. Lately I've had a lot of students get sick. There's been the stomach bug, a few students with bronchitis, one with pneumonia, and others that cough and sneeze, but don't know what they have. I don't want to get sick if I can help it. I've been opening up 3 probiotics pills to put into our smoothies at breakfast time.


Stay Healthy!

Great health begins in the core of your body, where the intestinal tract is. Approximately 70% of your immune system resides in the intestinal tract. Threo has created a formula with the toughest team probiotic strains to support your health where you need it most. A healthy gut is a happy gut!



Perks With Threo Probitoics:

  • Farm Fresh
  • Gluten Free
  • Soy Free
  • Dairy Free
  • Vegetarian
  • Raw
  • Non GMO
  • 30 Billion CFU's
  • 10 Probiotic Strains
  • Can be kept room temperature
  • Long shelf life
  • Deliver deeply into the intestines
  • No after-taste

30 Capsules

I like everything I read about these probiotics. I just wish the packaging was smaller. The pills only fill up less than 1/2 the bottle. That's a lot of waisted plastic to make the bottle. I'm sure many do not recyle it, and if it is recycled it's again using more resources to complete the task. I wish it was in a container 1/2 the size it's in.

It's $29.99 with Prime, so if you are a Prime Member you'll get free shipping.

Bamboo Toothbrush with Soft Bristles Review

I know many people think about diapers filling up landfills, but what about toothbrushes? I know toothbrushes are small. Every household uses them.


WooBamboo Eco-Awesome Toothbrushes are a stylish and eco friendly alternative to the typical landfill-cluttering plastic toothbrush. I received a Bamboo Toothbrush to review.


I wanted to try one because I believe that small things in landfills add up.

These toothbrushes are made with bamboo... 

  • that's sustainable
  • that's organically grown
  • that's biodegradable
  • that's antimocrobial
  • that's panda-friendly!


Packaging:

The only thing I wish that was different, is that it wouldn't be packaged with plastic. Just a small box would do. It defeats the purpose of saving on landfills if there's plastic in the packaging. 


The bristles are perfect in my opinion. They say that they are soft. I thought they felt in the middle of soft and hard. I like that! Extra soft bristles just don't get the gums clean in my opinion.




Isaak saw this "new" toothbrush sitting on the sink and he was amazed at the look of it. He said, "Mom that's made from wood!" I said, "Nope! It's made from bamboo." Then we had to look up bamboo. 

Cost:

$4.95 and on sale for $3.99. If it seems like a lot, it's nothing compared to some of the toothbrushes I've gotten for the boys. Those light up toothbrushes are not cheap. 

I do like this toothbrush! It's Eco-Awesome.

Disclaimer: I received this eco-friendly toothbrush for free for the purpose of this review. The opinions are 100% mine.
