JUST BEEF™ COLLAGEN PEPTIDES: The Foundation of Stronger Ligaments, Tendons, and Youthful Skin


Revitalize Your Joints and Skin from Within

Collagen, the most abundant protein in your body, is essential for maintaining joint mobility, skin elasticity and a youthful glow. As we age, our natural collagen production declines, leading to joint weakness and the formation of wrinkles.


A comprehensive meta-analysis published in Nutrients (2023) revealed the true potential of collagen supplementation:


- 10g daily of collagen peptides over six months showed a significant pain reduction in joints, and surrounding soft tissues like tendons and ligaments.


- Significant improvements in skin elasticity across multiple studies.


- Enhanced skin hydration and reduced appearance of wrinkles.


You're providing your ligaments, tendons, and skin, with the building blocks it needs to maintain joint strength, mobility, and youthful body structure. Clinical research validates collagen's role in skin structure and elasticity.

VITAMIN D3 + K2 with Bio-Perine®: The Perfect Tri-fecta for Cardiovascular Health, stronger bones, and a powerful immune system.


Protect Your Arteries, Strengthen Your Bones, and improve your immune system.

The synergistic combination of Vitamins K2 and D3 has emerged as a powerful tool for maintaining cardiovascular health, bone strength, and a stronger immune system. These essential nutrients work together to ensure that calcium is directed to where it's needed most – your bones – and away from where it can cause harm, like your arteries.


A recent review published in Nutrients (2024) highlighted the critical importance of K2 and D3:


- K2 activates matrix Gla protein, which helps remove harmful calcium from arteries.

- D3 enhances the body's production of this vital protein.

- Vitamin D3 helps regulate immne cells, including T cells and B cells, which are vital to immune function.

- D3 Fights infection by enhancing the production of antimicrobial peptides and defensins, which have antiviral properties that help destroy pathogens.

- Many individuals are deficient in both K2 and D3, increasing the risk of arterial calcification.

- Vitamin K2 has been shown to influence T-cell activation as well as cytokine production.

- BioPerine® for easy absorption.


Clinically studied for cardiovascular and bone health support.

GOLDEN CURCUMIN™ TURMERIC: Nature's Golden Anti-Inflammatory


Soothe Inflammation, Support Joint Health, and may protect brain function.

Turmeric, the vibrant yellow spice that gives curry its distinctive color, has been a cornerstone of traditional medicine for millennia. At the heart of turmeric's power is curcumin, a compound with remarkable anti-inflammatory properties.


A landmark clinical trial published by Kuptniratsaikul et al. in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine (2009) demonstrated the true potential of curcumin:


- 2000mg of curcumin daily showed similar efficacy to 800mg of ibuprofen in treating knee osteoarthritis

- Curcumin demonstrated a superior safety profile compared to ibuprofen

- Curcumin has shown potential to reduce the buildup of amyloid plaques in the brain, which are a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease, and to promote the growth of dendrites (parts of nerve cells that transmit signals).
