Title: TheraLife Autoimmune Dry Eye capsules
Post by: jasonsmith on August 15, 2011, 07:43:38 PM
I've seen TheraLife capsules mentioned here. Are there any studies that shows that it does anything? As $140 a month for a supplement is expensive. I'm used to getting supplements at around $10-$20 for 100-200 capsules that I take once or twice a day. That TheraLife have you take 8 capsules a day and charges $65 for a bottle of 120 capsules.

Jason,

Are you sure you've got the right supplement?  They are sold at Walmart next to TheraTears.  The same doctor who developed TheraTears developed the supplement and yes there is research behind it.  I take fish oil every day because my rheumatologist recommended.  TheraTears supplement has fish and flax oil.  I've used the preservative free vials of TheraTears from the beginning of my diagnosis.  They soothe my eyes and are my go to eye drop.

Hope this helps.

Theralife is different, is a different company from theratears
Theratears is very affordable, you can find on walmart.
There are many companies that sell the omega oil for "dry eye" the differnce I think is how they process it I guess. For instance my doc recommended one called "Dry eye" from "physician recommended neutraceuticals" he said he has patients that swear by it, however each bottle is around $40 so I didn't end up getting it.
