Health Basics Part 2- Protein/Collagen
Continuing on with our 4 part series on fundamentals for health, we will now dive into the benefits of protein and collagen.
Second to water, the human body is mostly composed of protein. Even though it seems that our body is relatively static in nature, it is not. We are constantly breaking down old tissues and rebuilding new ones. Protein is paramount in this process. Your skin, bones, ligaments, tendons, muscles, organs, and more, all require protein. Additionally, protein is necessary for the formation of biochemicals like neurotransmitters, hormones, enzymes, and so forth. Essentially, you need adequate protein for the proper structure
And along with protein there is collagen as a major component to proper structure and function of the body. Next to water, collagen is one of the most important structural substances in the body. It is a major component of skin, hair, nails, muscles and joints. Dr. Friedlander's Collagen Peptide work to nourish your cells with the essential nutrition that may be lacking in the average diet. Collagen supplements have the ability to assist the repair of damaged tissue especially joints, muscules and skin. Collagen is the building block for joint cartilage and it is the structural protein found in joints.
At Zebra Organics we have a number of protein supplements from vegan to whey.
One of my favorites is Premier Research Lab's Lean-Body Whey™ Protein Blend is a one-of-a-kind, premier quality, advanced organic protein drink that delivers a comprehensive array of immune-boosting nutrients without toxic tag-alongs.
Finally, a great protein drink for the whole family that is 100% health-promoting (no compromises), and tastes luscious.
Our Lean-Body drink delivers every nutrient essential for life and in its most bio-available form producing “The Quantum Effect.”
