Bone Broth Collagen powder is a unique pure complete proteinand the building material to renew cells in all areas of the body including:the hair, skin, nails, eyes, teeth, cartilage, bones, tendons, organs,arteries, blood vessels, hemoglobin, immune cells and the immune system. Thereare twenty eight different types of collagen that have been discovered .Not allhave been researched and some are in private testing in the medical fields forstem cell research. Research does show us that if collagen types 1, II and IIIare available in the body at the same time, the body can reproduce all twentyeight types as the body needs it. However, if Collagen does not have enoughVitamin C available to this process, it will remain a pro-collagen. (Apro-collagen is a precursor to collagen, not collagen itself, and needs thecorrect environment for the body to convert it into collagen). Vegetariansoften look to pro-collagen sources. Vitamin C is a vital nutrient required toincrease collagen production, while also providing stability and structure tothe collagen itself. Furthermore, amino acids must also be present to take thisdelicate material from a pro-collagen structure to the actual collagenmaterial. Additional nutrients in large doses such as proline, glycine, lysine,copper and manganese are all required to produce strong collagen fibers andelastin. The common sources of gelatin at your local grocery store, touted as acollagen source, are really pro-collagen because it is lacking the additionalcomponents for the actual collagen material. See results in 2-6 months Seeother listings in our Store Front for gelling products. Our simple bulkpackaging saves you not only money but it's also efficient and avoidsunnecessary waste.
Bone Broth Collagen is the building block of healthy skin, joints, bloodvessels, hair and nails. Bone Broth Collagen forms the elastic fibers thatsupport youthful, vibrant-looking skin. As you age, your body's collagendeteriorates from use and exposure to free radicals. Proper collagensupplementation rebuilds the body's collagen. The skin regains its naturalelasticity. Joints heal.
Bone Broth Collagen is an anti-aging miracle. A scientifically proven collagendose: Studies on collagen powder show that most supplements don't provideanywhere near an adequate daily dosage. This Bone Broth Collagen powder isformulated for the best results, so each dose has 12,000mg of premium BoneBroth Collagen hydrolysate. We make Bone Broth Collagen a powder so it iseasy to use. It isn’t realistic to put 12,000mg of bone broth collagen into a capsule,which is why no collagen pills on the market can provide an effective dose!
Bone Broth Collagen is a complete protein complex with all 20 Amino Acidsand all types of collagen that your body needs.
Many collagen supplements contain a limited profile of Collagen Types. Somecontain only Collagen Type II, found mainly in joints. Other products containonly Collagen Types I & III, found mainly in the skin. Bone Broth Collagencontains a complete collagen complex including Types I, II, III and up to 15more collagen types, making it a perfect collagen supplement! Rated one of thebest collagen supplements available!

VALINE
Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic
Non-Polar, Hydrophobic - Aliphatic
Main Functions:
One of the 3 major Branched-ChainAmino Acids (BCAA) . . .the other 2 being leucine and isoleucine . . . all ofwhich are involved with muscle strength, endurance, and muscle stamina.
BCAA levels are significantly decreased by insulin. High dietary sugar orglucose intake causes release of insulin, which, in turn, causes a drop in BCAAlevels.
Competes with Tyrosine and Tryptophan in crossing the blood-brain barrier. Thehigher the Valine level, the lower the brain levels of Tyrosine and Tryptophan.One of the implications of this competition is that Tyrosine and Tryptophannutritional supplements need to be taken at least an hour before or after mealsor supplements that are high in branched chain amino acids.
Actively absorbed and used directly by muscle as an energy source.
Not processed by the liver before entering the blood stream.
Any acute physical stress (including surgery, sepsis, fever, trauma,starvation) requires higher amounts of Valine, Leucine and Isoleucine that anyof the other amino acids.
During period of Valine deficiency, all of the other amino acids (and protein)are less well absorbed by the GI tract.

Myelin sheath (the fatty acid complex that surrounds the axons of nerves isderived from serine. One variation of Serine namely Phosphotidyl Serine, aminor amino acid serves several important functions within the central nervoussystem, including development of the myelin sheath. Multiple Sclerosis is oneof the so-called "De-myelinating Diseases."
Required for growth and maintenance of muscle.
The amino acid Glycine is a precursor to Serine and the two areinterconvertible.
THREONINE
Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic
Un-charged, Hydrophilic - Hydroxylic
Main Functions:
Required for formation of collagen.
Helps prevent fatty deposits in the liver.
Aids in production of antibodies.
Can be converted to Glycine (a neurotransmitter) in the central nervous system.
Acts as detoxifier.
Needed by the GI (gastrointensinal) tract for normal functioning.
Provides symptomatic relife in ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Lou Gehrig'sDisease).
In laboratory experiments with animals, Threonine increases thymus weight.
Threonine is often low in depressed patients. In that group of patients,Threonine is helpful in treating the depression.
TRYPTOPHAN
Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic and Ketogenic
Non-Polar, Hydrophobic - Aromatic
Main Functions:
Precursor to the keyneurotransmitter, serotonin, which exerts a calming effect.
Effective sleep aid, due to conversion to serotonin.
Reduces anxiety.
Effective in some forms of depression.
Treatment for migraine headaches.
Stimulates growth hormone.
Along with Lysine, Carnitine, and Taurine is effective in lowering cholesterollevels.
Can be converted into niacin (Vitamin B3).
Lowers risk of arterial spasms.
The only plasma amino acid that is bound to protein.
Tryptophan must compete with 5 other amino acids to pass through theblood-brain barrier and enter the brain. Those 5 are: tyrosine, phenylalanine,leucine, isoleucine, and valine and are called Large Neutral Amino Acids(LNAA).
Requires pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P5P) a form of vitamin B6 to be converted intoserotonin. P5P deficiency will lower serotonin levels, even if Tryptophanlevels are normal.
TYROSINE
Conditionally Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic and Ketogenic
Un-charged, Hydrophilic - Aromatic
Main Functions:
Precursor to neurotransmittersdopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine (adrenaline) and melanin.
Effective anti-depressant for norepinephrine-deficient depressions. Tyrosine ispreferred over Phenylalanine, which is also a precursor to all of the aboveneurotransmitters. Phenylalanine is one step removed from the metabolicprocess, and can aggravate high blood pressure.
Precursor to thyroxine and growth hormone.
Increases energy, improves mental clarity and concentration.
Requires pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P5P) a form of vitamin B6 to be converted intonorepinephrine. P5P deficiency will lower norepinephrine levels, even ifTyrosine levels are normal.
VALINE
Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic
Non-Polar, Hydrophobic - Aliphatic
Main Functions:
One of the 3 major Branched-ChainAmino Acids (BCAA) . . .the other 2 being leucine and isoleucine . . . all ofwhich are involved with muscle strength, endurance, and muscle stamina.
BCAA levels are significantly decreased by insulin. High dietary sugar orglucose intake causes release of insulin, which, in turn, causes a drop in BCAAlevels.
Competes with Tyrosine and Tryptophan in crossing the blood-brain barrier. Thehigher the Valine level, the lower the brain levels of Tyrosine and Tryptophan.One of the implications of this competition is that Tyrosine and Tryptophannutritional supplements need to be taken at least an hour before or after mealsor supplements that are high in branched chain amino acids.
Actively absorbed and used directly by muscle as an energy source.
Not processed by the liver before entering the blood stream.
Any acute physical stress (including surgery, sepsis, fever, trauma,starvation) requires higher amounts of Valine, Leucine and Isoleucine that anyof the other amino acids.
During period of Valine deficiency, all of the other amino acids (and protein)are less well absorbed by the GI tract.
