BENEFITS

COLLAGEN IS ESSENTIAL FOR YOUR HEALTH.

WHY COLLAGEN?

Collagen is a key structural protein that ensures the cohesion, elasticity and formation of all our connective tissues — skin, joints, bones, tendons and ligaments.The right collagen supplement can have a positive impact throughout your entire body.

WHY MARINE COLLAGEN?

No other source — including cattle, sheep or pigs — can claim all of these benefits. Some sources, for instance, can raise concerns about illnesses such as hoof & mouth disease or avian flu; Others, like porcine collagen, don’t meet Kosher standards.

Collagen can come from a variety of sources. Marine, or hydrolyzed, collagen is considered by many to be the gold standard — for many reasons. One of the most important is that it has more of the amino acids your body needs.

Key Amino Acids in Marine Collagen
Serine
Precursor to creatine - increases muscle strength and power
 
Threonine
Essential amino acid that supports cardiovascular, and immune system function, promotes muscle elasticity, builds strong bones

Arginine
Conditionally essential amino acid that helps improve cardiovascular health while maintaining healthy blood pressure and proper functioning blood vessels. Helps stimulate the release of growth hormone and insulin while aiding in the removal of toxic ammonia from the body.

Histidine
Conditionally essential amino acid that’s an immunomodulatory and antioxidant

Glycine
Non-essential amino acid that helps improve sleep quality with antioxidant activity

Methionine
Essential amino acid that offers protection against toxic effects and promotes antioxidant activity

Isoleucine
Essential amino acid that induces muscle protein synthesis and glucose uptake, and is essential for energy production
