I started Thrive 1st day thru 16th i felt awesome except for one thing Lactose... shake says contains milk and soy... before ordering 2 promoters said.it would not be a problem the pills get u ready to tolerate the shake... ok no it doesnt... my abdomen was so messed up i was miserable for 16 days... i contacted my promoter... who 3 wayed on pm in Facebook she was a nurse who proceeded to tell me "Oh no this is Lactose free!" I hate smoke being blowed up my $#*!! Blah blah blah bull$#*!... so i stopped for 2 days... 3rd day only took the pills started cramping and bloating 4 hrs later trying to stay positive took pills only day 2... nope cramping and $#*!ting all day... probiotics and prebiotics do not cure a true lactose intolerant person just dont lie to me. So im done but it did give me clarity and energy all day... so if u are not lactose intolerant go for it!
