The science

The research, translated.

What the research says about protein, creatine and collagen, in plain language. Every journal article lists the studies it draws on.

By the numbers

Why these three.

3–5%
Estimated muscle loss per decade after 30

Muscle loss is often estimated at 3–5% per decade after 30, but the pace varies with activity, nutrition and health. Resistance training and adequate protein may support muscle maintenance.

20%
Of resting energy used by the adult brain, approximately

The adult brain uses roughly a fifth of the body's energy at rest. Creatine is involved in cellular energy recycling; this figure does not establish a benefit from supplementation. Research into memory benefits is still developing.

20g
One scoop, our collagen label serving

Our label directs one 20g scoop daily. Studies of specific collagen formulations suggest they may support joint comfort, but those results should not be assumed to apply to every product or serving size.

Strength for life

The protein reset.

The official protein guideline is set to prevent deficiency, not to help you stay strong as you age. Many researchers now suggest more for older adults. A scoop of whey isolate is an easy way to close the gap.

Clarity at any age

Creatine for the brain.

Creatine is involved in recycling cellular energy. Researchers are studying whether supplementation may support memory and mental performance, including during short periods of sleep loss. Evidence is still developing, and benefits are not guaranteed.

Move with freedom

Collagen for your joints.

Digestion breaks collagen down into peptides and amino acids. Our label directs one 20g scoop daily. Studies of specific collagen formulations suggest they may support joint comfort over several months, but those results should not be assumed to apply to every product or serving size.
