Question 1

What is collagen?

Accepted Answer

Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies, especially type I collagen. It’s found in muscles, bones, skin, blood vessels, tendons and the digestive system. Collagen contains 18 different amino acids. Amino acids are the “building blocks of proteins,” and collagen includes a mix of both nonessential (also called conditional) and essential types.

Question 2

What does this collagen formula do?

Accepted Answer

This collagen formula is designed to support your hair, skin, nails, gut and joints. It helps promote improved hair texture, improves the elasticity of the skin around the eyes (think crow’s feet) and overall skin texture, and delivers fast, noticeable joint support, meaning users experience reduced joint stiffness beginning in as little as 7 days, plus improved flexibility, mobility and faster recovery from everyday activity and exercise with continued use. It also helps promote healthy cartilage over time, supporting more comfortable, resilient joints you can count on.

Question 3

Why should I be supplementing with collagen?

Accepted Answer

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body. Up to 30% of all the protein in your body is collagen protein. Up to 70% of skin, hair, nails and nearly 100% of connective tissues are made from collagen. It literally holds you together, from the hairs on your head, to every inch of your skin, to your joint comfort and mobility. It even supports the integrity of your gut lining; collagen promotes normal tissue growth and cellular health, all of which can impact the overall health of your gut. Collagen production naturally declines as we age… and it’s not being consumed in the standard modern diet. Supplementing can help support your body’s natural collagen production, so you can reap all the rewards of collagen.

Question 4

Do I need to refrigerate these probiotics?

Accepted Answer

Our SBOs arrive dormant and are stable at room temperature, without refrigeration.

Question 5

Why should I give my gut support?

Accepted Answer

Fact: Most Americans don't consume enough probiotics in their diet due to modern processed foods, soil depletion and more. I believe most people are in need of probiotic support. Here's why: Thanks to prescription antibiotics, high carbohydrate diets, fluoridated tap water and high levels of stress, the good bacteria in our guts are often diminished, and our bodies can't replace them at the rate required for optimal health. Many probiotics health benefits are gut- and digestion-related, so here are a few key reasons why gut health, in general, is so important to overall health: - Up to 80% of the immune system is housed in the gut. - Between 80% to 90% of the body's serotonin, often referred to as a feel good or happy chemical which acts as a neurotransmitter, is found in the gut. Serotonin is thought to have many effects on the body, including the areas of digestion, sleep, memory, behavior and more. - Every bodily cell, tissue and organ depend on proper nutrient absorption and assimilation of food through healthy digestion, and, generally speaking, probiotics can play a supporting role in that.
