i heard thorne got bought out and their shit was possibly no longer of reliable quality, i didn't really believe the concerns but stayed away from it just in case. good to know, thanks for sharing

I remember seeing this post before, anyway I would never buy their overpriced products to begin with

>>77116419
Protip: don't buy any fucking supplements, they're all a waste :^)

>>77116424

this is what went through after 13kg of desiccant


what possible information can this 'test' be useful for

>>77116555
>>77116545
>>77116558
dawg you need to report to FDA that is a serious safety issue. I hope you have proof of your boss saying to allow desiccant into the product.

my bosses are not smart people...

Well shit you guys were one of the best right? I'm sure other supplement companies have far worse practices going on right now

>>77116592
>>77116595
best case scenario they fire you and you get to sue them as a whistleblower and get a gorillion dollars.

>>77116646


you're not wrong, but this is south carolina

they can manufacture a situation to fire you legally i'm sure and be like oh no, it wasnt the whistle blowing, it was this bullshit blah blah reason

>>77116419
Thanks for the heads up, king

>>77116592
>--None-- 4048 kgs
wtf

>>77116419
Dessicants are pretty stupid anyway. Why not just bulk ship under a nitrogen atmosphere in aluminum cans? What tier of retard manufacturer is this?

>>77116674

they come with the raw materials shipped from china

>>77116668

see above. my bosses are not smart people

>>77116657
Doesn't matter if it's at will, any lawyer would salivate at a whistle blower getting fired. That's such an easy case

>>77116689

man you convinced me
will send report

ill update if anything happens

>>77116689
I hope this anon is right if you get caught
Never bought this brand but seen it many times and almost did buy it
Thanks for the legit warning
God bless you

I bought a few of their products a long-ass time ago, but they managed to deter me with uncompetitive pricing alone more recently.

No fkn way

>>77116419
Some of my preworkout has silicon dioxide just in the shit. It's also sold as scar reducing gel. tl;dr it's not bad for you.

Good info. Been thinking about buying their vitamin K.

>>77116419
Id be fine eating the silica, but it's fucked that they let the plastic packaging get broken down too. I hate micro plastics

>>77116419
Based. doing the lords work anon thank you

Blessed thread, uncs unite

>>77117224
t. OP's boss

Monitoring this thread.
But that brand was always too expensive for me anyway. Who knows what I'm actually consuming but at least it's not comfirmed dessicant.

If that's in the supposed high tier products imagine what's inside the lower tier ones and imagine what's being done with protein from less regulated markets like US or England.

>>77117457

Thorne is a US company

>>77117224
>It's also sold as scar reducing gel.
You're thinking of silicone; totally different chemical that's also in some titty implants, dildos, and caulking.

I'd recommend going to a lawyer before you report, someone who specializes on the supplement/food industry, regulations etc., could probably also help you figure out the best way to do this entire thing

silicon dioxide is a filler in most of thorne products desu

silica gel is not the same thing

>>77119344

I'm really not a regular on this board
yall would know who to send it to, idk any fit influencers

>>77119387
>silicon dioxide is a filler in most of thorne products desu
>silica gel is not the same thing
It's exactly the same thing. The dessicant packs that say silica gel and do not eat are silicon dioxide that you can eat. Ingest anyway, wouldn't chew it.

If it was known to be toxic in any way do you retards really think 100,000 food and supplement products would have it in flimsy paper packs.

>>77119569
I hope OP is ok if the FDA rejects this on this grounds

>>77116419
Tell us what Thorne is, first

>>77116867
godspeed my friend. in the current age of epstein & co., we need to do whatever we can to protect whistleblowers

>>77119569

If you say so

I have poured thoudands of kilos of silicon dioxide

I have seen silica gel milled to fine powder

They don't look like the same thing or flow the same way. Not same color.

Just my experience you could be right

>>77116419
Thanks for this anon. I was about to switch up who I get my Mag supplements from and I was considering Thorne since they had good reviews across the web.

>>77116565
FDA doesn't even regulate supplements anyway. Companies can lie about what's in them, or lie about what's not in them, as long as the substance itself isn't controlled.

In this episode of /fit/, a disgruntled employee on a PIP (performance improvement plan) with scope of being fired due to poor performance wants to sink the company on his way out. What hijinks are going to transpire in this episode of whacky 4chan greentext posts when anon founds out that... *record scratch* *freeze frame*... SILICA GEL ISNT TOXIC!?!?!?

Hi, my name is anon. You're probably wondering how I became a top level whistle blower. Well you see, I was once a straight working HR abiding citizen just like you. Until I saw those damned silica packets... I knew since day 1 they were risky business. You see, it says "DO NOT EAT" on them. It doesn't take a genius to know that they're as sketchy as a detroit hooker 2 days away from their food stamps hitting their doorstep. Anyway, let me cut the chase. One day the big cheese caught me cranking hog in the female toilets and.. well you get the picture. I was on a 1 way bus ride to cannedville, population: me. That's when it hit me. I've been dumping raw materials into the industrial mixers without proper oversight for years. That's at least 12 metric tons of silica packets delivered straight down the gullets of the Joe Schmoe's of America. How are they even alive? I don't want to hear how I'm responsible. Sure, it was me who dumped the raw materials into the vats. But so what? At the end of the day, cranking hog in the bathroom stall is a personal matter, and Susan from HR is a fucking bitch for reporting me....... she's stood behind me isnt she?.... WELL THAT HAPPENED!

>>77119903
Anywhere online that tells you what chemical silica gel is says either silicon dioxide or SiO2 which means the same thing. It's not a theory I came up with.

>>77119918

Correct I'm just saying my personal experience is they do not look like eachother

I've seen both milled into fine powder and they don't have the same properties

I don't know the significance of that. Could be nothing. Just my experience, I don't have an explanation

>>77119933
It can be formed differently physically.

>>77116419
Thank you OP, you're a good person

never heard of Thorne but thanks OP I shall avoid

>>77116419
Op, silica gel is nontoxic it says do not eat on it bc its a choking hazard but if you are grinding it into powder thats a nonissue. The worst thing thats happening here is your retarded boss is fleecing customers by diluting the product by a few %.

how much of your life do you live inside of your head with made up scenarios like this?

>>77122031

hey I did preface all this with I dont know if anyone will give a fuck

been doing this a long time so theres normal bullshittery and then there is higher level bullshittery. Even all the other dudes here who dont normally give a fuck were like damn, this is kinda fucked up.

Didn't hear shit saturday but ill update if any leaking panic comes out today

>>77121994
The pic
Lmao

>>77122118

TY for saying this lol. It really weirded me out.

I am a little higher up than the rank and file, I am a good employee that was, at least, under the impression of trying to spread a little awareness of the shift in culture. We used to be serious about the quality of the product. Now we aren't and we will do pretty much anything we can get away with.

Take it at face value. If you dont care because it's 'non-toxic' thats fine. Its kind of indicative of an over all approach to quality, not that we are actively attempting to poison people.

paranoid about this being traced back to me, as I'm under an NDA

>>77117906
I have scars, will try that.
Will trying it along with the dildo improve the effects?

Fuck thorne

yikes! in before the FDA Warning Letters/Recall

Godspeed OP

Is this publicly traded? Want to short this pile of shit

>>77122592
>as I'm under an NDA
this literally doesnt apply if they are breaking the law

>>77122755

i'm not sure they are breaking the law
supplements are barely regulated

morally wrong yes, illegal? ehh.
whistleblower my help with the alert to the fda

but if i get caught posting this shit on here, or going to media or influencers i dont know about all that

i'd rather not find out

Wiow good find.
Yes silicone dioxide is absoluteyl toxic. its used as a lubircating agent for the machines and excipient just found in the powder. Its considered "safe" by corrupt FDA standards. Silicone dioxide is literal glass dust that fucks up your gut and intestines when ingested.
