It has been determined that between the age of 25 and 50 collagen formation is reduced by 2% per year from our peak. Aging, lifestyle, and diet all contribute to this decline. Collagen helps to form every inch of your skin, your joints and your gut. In fact, all soft tissues require collagen formation for repair. People who experience any of these issues can benefit from a multi-source collagen protein. By taking the multiple sources and types of collagen together, you can optimize the benefit and deliver well-rounded support. Single source collagen is not a preferred option for all consumers. Collagen is fastest growing segment in both Natural Channel, Mass Market Retailers and Ecommerce. In the Natural Channel, the four top selling protein powders are Collagen, with an average retail price is greater than all protein powders. As the numbers prove, diversity of consumer choice feeds this explosion. Adding a multi-source collagen will allow for even greater growth.

The process of building and maintaining bone structure involves numerous biochemical and physiological processes. Osteoblasts and osteoclasts are the two primary types of bone cells involved in maintaining skeletal structure. Osteoblasts are responsible for bone mineralization (building new bone). Osteoclasts are responsible for secreting acid and enzymes that help dissolve “old” bone tissue into calcium and other components, some of which may be reused by the body. The balance of building and breaking down bone involves a complex interplay between various nutrients, hormones, and other biochemicals. Our Calcium Citrate formula with Vitamin D is designed to provide the structural components, as well as help support the complex processes involved in building and maintaining strong, healthy bone structure.†

Aquamin® has shown the ability for sufferers of osteoarthritis to reduce NSAID use by up to 50%†
Vitamin K2 (menaquinone) is more biologically active than the more common form, Vitamin K1 (phylloquinone).

bone matrix. The binding of calcium is critical to the growth and strength of bones.†
Vitamin K2 also increases the formation of a protein (Matrix GLA-Protein) which regulates the amount of calcium present in arterial walls. This helps maintain the elasticity and overall health of arteries.†

Magnesium is an essential nutrient, meaning that your body needs it for healthy functioning. It is found in significant quantities throughout the body and is used for numerous purposes; including muscle relaxation, blood clotting, and the manufacture of ATP (adenosine triphosphate, the body’s main energy molecule). It has been called “nature’s calcium channel blocker”. The idea refers to magnesium’s ability to block calcium from entering muscle and heart cells. A group of prescription heart medications work in a similar way, although much more powerfully. This may be the basis for some of magnesium’s effects when it is taken as a supplement in fairly high doses.

Features
Chelated Magnesium, bound to Amino Acids to aid absorption.


Benefits
Magnesium a cofactor for well over 300 biochemical reactions.†
Magnesium is required for nutrient metabolism and energy production, muscle function and works synergistically with calcium, where calcium is responsible for muscle contraction and magnesium, muscle relaxation.†
Magnesium is also essential for maintaining a normal, healthy blood pressure, and is required for the synthesis of DNA and RNA, cell membrane function and the activity of hormones, neurotransmitters and other cellular regulators.†
Magnesium is an essential dietary mineral, and the second most prevalent electrolyte in the human body.†
Magnesium deficiencies are common in developed countries. A deficiency increases blood pressure, reduces glucose tolerance and causes neural excitation. If magnesium is supplemented to attenuate a deficiency, it acts may reduce blood pressure and improve insulin sensitivity.†
Maintaining healthy magnesium levels is also associated with a protective effect against depression and ADHD.†
CAUTION: A sudden increase in excess doses may cause gastrointestinal distress and diarrhea.

Zinc is an essential trace mineral required for numerous biochemical and physiological processes in the body. Zinc is important for healthy functioning of all organs. It is essential for more than 30 enzyme reactions that control a variety of functions. Zinc is an important component of superoxide dismutase (SOD), a major protective antioxidant enzyme. Zinc-dependent enzymes are involved in growth, immunity, and tissue repair.† Zinc is especially important for healthy functioning of the prostate and the male reproductive system, and for normal, healthy immune function.† L-OptiZinc® is a unique, patented form of methionine-bound zinc which has been shown in numerous studies to be better absorbed, retained longer and be more effective than other forms of zinc.†
