  Ingredient research · Sodium

  Sodium is an essential electrolyte that maintains fluid balance and supports nerve signaling and muscle contraction. Supplementation is mainly useful for replacing losses from heavy sweating, prolonged exercise, or fluid loss from illness, often as part of an electrolyte or oral rehydration formula; excess intake can raise blood pressure.

• Protein

  10 Grams

  Ingredient research · Protein

  Protein is a concentrated way to supply amino acids needed to build and repair body tissues. Supplementation can help meet higher or otherwise unmet protein needs, supporting muscle growth and exercise recovery when paired with training and helping preserve muscle during aging, illness, or calorie restriction.

  • Supports selected muscle-strength outcomes when increased protein intake accompanies resistance training.
  • Supports selected muscle-mass outcomes when protein supplementation accompanies resistance exercise in community-dwelling older adults with sarcopenia.
  • Supports a selected post-meal hunger outcome under a controlled high-protein weight-loss diet.

• Hydrolyzed Collagen

  10.5 Grams

  Ingredient research · Collagen Peptides

  Collagen Peptides are hydrolyzed collagen proteins broken into smaller, readily dissolving fragments. Supplementation can modestly improve skin hydration and elasticity and may reduce joint discomfort in some people, but the peptides are digested rather than delivered intact to skin, cartilage, or bone.

  • Supports skin hydration and elasticity outcomes.
