CollagenCollagen is a complex structural protein that is present in our muscles and connective tissues including tendons and ligaments, as well as our hair, skin and nails. Collagen makes up 30% of the body’s protein and contains 19 different amino acids, which are vital building blocks for tissues. There are at least 28 different types of collagen. The most common are types 1 to 5, with type 1 the most plentiful, accounting for 90% of total collagen in our bodies.
ProbioticsProbiotics are beneficial living microorganisms that are involved in various roles in our overall digestive health and function. Probiotic bacteria primarily help to digest food and absorb nutrients and promote gastrointestinal motility (how easily digested food moves through your intestines) by regulating intestinal mucus secretion and utilisation. They also help to synthesise nutrients like vitamins and produce short-chain fatty acids and other organic compounds, and support immunity in various ways.
MultivitaminsVitamins are organic compounds that our bodies need for normal development and growth and optimal nutrition. As we require vitamins in small quantities, they are classified as micronutrients, and we need to get them from our diets because our body cannot produce them. We can also deplete micronutrients at faster rates when recovering from illness, during periods of heightened physical, emotional and/or psychological stress, or due to exposure to environmental pollutants and nutrient-deficient diets. In these instances, a comprehensive multi-vitamin supplement may help to compensate for any shortfall in specific nutrients.
Omega 3Omega-3 is a form of polyunsaturated essential fatty acid that is important for numerous functions in the body, including cell membrane health and function, with various functions related to your cardiovascular, respiratory, immune, and endocrine (hormonal) systems. The omega-3 fatty acids docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) are found in fatty fish, shellfish and algae while alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) is found in other foods, including plant-based sources such as flaxseeds and soybeans.
AdaptogensSupport your body’s ability to cope and adapt to mental and physical stress with adaptogens. Most adaptogens are made from natural substances, including plant and herbal extracts, that may help to restore balance in the cardiovascular, immune and nervous and endocrine systems, usually without any physiological disturbance or adverse side effects.
