Why the difference in reviews on Reddit vs. Amazon for MicroMag?
Original post in this thread

Looking into sucrasomial magnesium and reddit raves about MicroMag yet the Amazon reviews list quite a few people saying it didn’t work for them digestively. The bad reviews are more than most other magnesium products. Yet far and wide it seems to be the most recommended brand for Sucrasomial. There are some other brands that got better reviews for Sucrasomial magnesium (Legion, Pure E) but yet I’ve heard more people praise Nootropics than the others. Anyone want to chime in on this?

LOL
"Thorne laid off their entire scientific team when LVMH bought them. " I didn't know that but doesn't surprise me.
Please don't ever sell. There really is nothing even near your class of supplement company anymore.

Yeah, we are friends with one of their former scientific team members that was with them for 15 years. When L Catterton, the investment arm of LVMH, bought them, they gutted the entire scientific team. They wanted the name and reputation, not the overhead of science and innovation. The sad thing is, that seems to have paid off. They paid $700M for it around 3 years ago. Now they are in talks to sell it to Unilever for $4B. So they will massively profit off gutting science and quality.
