  • Sally Ann Creed Hydrolysed Marine Collagen 300g

    N$520.00

    Hydrolysed Marine Collagen

    Marine collagen is a great source of type 1 collagen, which is the most common collagen type in the body. Type 1 collagen helps to build and maintain skin, bones, tendons, ligaments, hair and nails.

    There is a lot of research about marine collagen being extracted from jellyfish, sharks, sea cucumber and other marine animals, which can make one skeptical about the origins of their collagen. We are proud to say that our marine collagen is sourced from 100% wild caught, marine whitefish, and it is Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certified at source. This means that our marine collagen is sourced from fisheries that meet the MSC standard in terms of management, best practice and sustainability. Our Hydrolysed Marine Collagen is low in both calcium and sodium, with only 7mg per 100g of calcium and 310mg total sodium per 100g. This sodium content is due to the natural nature of hydrolysed collagen, and is not from any additional sodium being added to the product.

     

    Suggested use: Take 1 – 2 scoops / TBSP per day in water or a hot or cold beverage (1 scoop = 15ml = 5g)

    • Glycine (among other things) helps build healthy DNA strands
    • Glycine is one of three amino acids which form creatine – promotes healthy muscle growth
    • Boosts energy production during workouts
    • Proline builds proper muscle tissue, protects the heart and the digestive system from permeability (leaky gut)
    • Chinese medicine uses chicken collagen to strengthen kidneys, blood and digestion

  • Sfera Collagen with L-Glutamine 300g

    N$382.95

    The Sfera Collagen with L-Glutamine has been formulated to assist with gut healing and to support the digestive system.

    Collagen plays an integral role in rebuilding and strengthening the lining of our digestive tract as it contains amino acids that are essential for its repair. Amino acids like glycine, proline and hydroxyproline are needed to repair and rebuild the endothelial tissue of the digestive system.

    Bovine collagen provides type 1 and 3. Type 1 collagen form the structural and mechanical matrix of connective tissues. Type 3 collagen is found in large quantities in the intestines, muscles, blood vessels and the uterus. Collagen helps tight junction proteins do their jobs, allowing nutrients and water in and keeping unwanted particles out.

    L-Glutamine is a naturally occurring non-essential amino acid, abundant in the human body, with important functions in protein synthesis and gut cell repair.

    The combination of collagen and glutamine can assist in reducing intestinal inflammation by normalising the gut-immune response which can be depleted during times of stress-like trauma or inflammatory bowel conditions.

    How it works:

    Neural growth factors

    • Lions mane increase NGF levels in the brain for enhanced neural grown, regeneration and synaptic plasticity. Plasticity is the ability of the brain to change and adapt to new information.

    Protects Neurons

    • Improves myelination around the neurons (the lipid/protein sheath) and leads to enhanced communications and nerve regeneration.

    What is NGF?

    NGF is a neurotropin, a secreted protein that is essential for the growth, maintenance, proliferation and survival of neurons.  It is one of the primary building blocks for brain health.

    Not having enough NGF leads to neural decay and eventual death of nerve cells.

     

    The active compounds in lion’s Mane:  erinacines and hericenones – they are responsible for stimulating NGF in the brain and small molecules that can easily cross the blood-brain barrier.
