    PRL Premier Marine Collagen

    Product Summary

    Premier marine collagen is sourced from wild-caught, deep-sea fish and supports healthy skin and connective tissues, including bones, tendons, and ligaments; it can also help reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

    More Information

    Premier Marine Collagen provides 19 out of 20 amino acids, which support lean muscle mass and workout recovery. It’s a joint health supplement that aids healthy joint function, which may aid mobility and comfort aging joints; it also supports the integrity of the Intestinal Epithelial Barrier Function

    Accounting for 30% of the body’s total body protein, collagen is the most abundant and ubiquitous protein that works to maintain the structure and function of the skin and connective tissues throughout the body. Healthy skin is the body’s primary barrier to prevent dehydration and potential infection while maintaining moisture and body temperature. Skin elasticity and firmness are dependent on collagen peptides. Visible signs of collagen loss are evident in early adulthood, with the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, as well as slight joint discomfort.

    Compared to commercial collagen peptide supplements made from bovine or porcine sources, marine collagen has a low molecular weight and delivers the most predominant type of collagen in the body, type I collagen. Type I collagen provides rigidity, elasticity and strength to skin, tendons, ligaments, bones, teeth, and cartilage.

    Premier Marine Collagen™ utilizes the glycoproteins necessary to help modulate collagen production, strengthen the skin barrier, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and hydrate dry skin.* Supplementing with hydrolyzed marine collagen, coupled with dietary sources of antioxidants (vitamin C) and micronutrients (zinc, copper) delivers bioactive, short-chain nutritional collagen peptides, which support collagen synthesis, in the tissues that need it the most.

    Hydrolyzed with food grade enzymes, PRL’s Premier Marine Collagen™ is versatile for everyday use. Tasteless, fully dissolvable, and bioavailable, PRL’s Premier Marine Collagen is ready to be mixed into your favorite morning beverages, juice blends, miso soups, broths and more!

    Aside from slowing the inevitable effects of skin ageing, hydrolyzed collagen supplementation is associated with additional beneficial effects.

    PRL Premier Plant Protein

    Product Summary

    Premier Plant Protein is an excellent source of complete protein, providing 18 grams, plus it has all of the essential amino acids naturally present in plant-based sources.

    More Information

    Premier Plant Protein liberates the nutritive power of high quality, living seeds, grains and legumes (pea) as a high quality, vegan protein powder. This product features six premier types of plant-based protein, including premier quality pea protein, rice protein, pumpkin seed protein, hemp seed protein, quinoa seed protein and pomegranate seed protein.

    In recent years, as the popularity of vegan diets (and food sensitivities) has increased, plant-based protein powders have been gaining the edge as an excellent, natural protein source over animal-based sources. Among protein sources, pea protein stands out for its excellent nutritional profile, as well as the versatility and protein attributes of the humble pea.

    Plant-based protein, including pea protein, is a great option for individuals or families who have food sensitivities. Plantbased protein is naturally free of common allergens such as gluten, dairy, wheat and egg, so it may be one of the safer protein options available.

    Pea protein is also ideal for weight maintenance support. Research has shown that pea protein can subdue ghrelin, a substance produced in the stomach that sends hunger signals to the brain. So that scoop of pea protein that you add to your breakfast smoothie may help keep your hands away from those snack bars until lunchtime!

    An extra bonus! Pea protein does not typically cause bloating the way that whey protein sometimes can, so it may help you look and feel your best.
