Kollagen: Grass Fed/Finished Bovine Collagen Bundle of 2

Anti Inflammatory Amino Acids: Glycine is found in collagen and helps the effects of the other amino acids such as cysteine, tryptophan, and methionine, reducing inflammation and supporting overall health.

Radiant Skin: Increases skin elasticity and hydration, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Strong Hair & Nails: Provides essential amino acids to promote hair and nail growth.

Joint & Bone Health: Supports the health and regrowth of your joints, ligaments, and bones. 

Gut Health: Collagen can help restore and strengthen the gut lining.

Supporting Metabolism: Balanced amino acids improve metabolism, providing more energy and keeping you feeling active and lively.

Lowering Oxidative Stress: Less harmful amino acids mean less oxidative stress, protecting your cells and slowing aging to keep you feeling energetic.

In Depth Description

Alanine - 11.1%

• Supports glucose metabolism, helping stabilize blood sugar.
• Can reduce stress on the liver by providing an alternative energy source.

Arginine - 4.6%

• Involved in nitric oxide production, though excessive intake may cause oxidative stress.
• May promote growth hormone release, but can sometimes contribute to viral activation.

Aspartic Acid - 5%

• Plays a role in neurotransmission, potentially excitatory and overstimulating in excess.
• Supports immune function but should be balanced with other amino acids.

Cystine - 0%

• Precursor to cysteine and glutathione, important for detoxification.
• Can be inflammatory if consumed in large amounts; moderation is suggested.

Glutamic Acid - 7.7%

• Major neurotransmitter, but may lead to excitotoxicity when consumed in high amounts (e.g., MSG).
• Should be balanced with glycine to mitigate potential overstimulation.

Glycine - 31.1%

• Key anti-inflammatory and anti-stress amino acid; supports collagen formation.
• Balances methionine in meat, protects the liver, and aids sleep.

Histidine - 0.8%

• Precursor to histamine; can support digestion but may cause inflammation if in excess.
• Important for hemoglobin function and tissue repair.

Hydroxyproline - 1%

• Supports collagen synthesis, important for skin and connective tissue.
• Helps to reduce signs of aging and supports joint health.

Isoleucine - 1.3%

• Branched-chain amino acid that supports muscle repair but should be balanced with other BCAAs.
• Can help with energy metabolism but may need glycine to counterbalance.

Leucine - 2.3%

• Important for muscle synthesis; excessive intake can stimulate insulin excessively.
• Often needs balancing with anti-inflammatory amino acids like glycine.

Lysine - 2.7%

• Essential for collagen production, immune support, and viral defense.
• Helpful for calcium absorption, supporting skin and bone health.

Methionine - 0.7%

• Essential but can be inflammatory in high amounts; balancing with glycine is recommended.
• Plays a role in detoxification processes, especially in liver function.

Ornithine - 0%

• Part of the urea cycle, helps detoxify ammonia.
• Supports energy and growth hormone production.

Phenylalanine - 1.4%

• Precursor to dopamine; supports mood and focus but can be excitatory.
• Should be consumed in moderation due to its stimulating effects.

Proline - 12.3%

• Crucial for collagen and skin health, helps maintain youthful elasticity.
• Supports heart health by stabilizing connective tissue.

Serine - 3.3%

• Plays a role in cellular function and neurotransmission; involved in brain health.
• Useful for metabolic flexibility and immune function.

Threonine - 1.7%

• Supports immune health, mucus production, and connective tissue.
• Important for balancing other amino acids and liver health.

Tryptophan - 0%

• Precursor to serotonin, with potential depressive effects if in excess.
• May disrupt metabolism and lower thyroid function when consumed in excess.

Tyrosine - 0.6%

• Precursor to dopamine, norepinephrine, and thyroid hormones; supports mood and energy.
• May boost mental clarity but should be balanced for optimal thyroid function.

Valine - 2%

• Branched-chain amino acid; supports muscle energy but benefits from moderation.
• Can help in tissue repair and stress resilience when balanced with glycine.
