FAQs

General

Our products have many innovations that separate them from conventional collagen products.

  • Nano-hydrolyzed for Maximum Absorption: ProT Gold Collagen is broken down naturally with a fruit enzyme (not heat or acids like other products) to a molecular weight of 2000 - 5000 daltons. This allows certain peptide bonds in the protein to remain intact while also facilitating incredibly rapid digestion and absorption. ProT Gold is proven to digest 4x faster than other protein supplements. 
  • Complete Protein with 22 Amino Acids: While native collagen is exceptionally high in certain amino acids, it is naturally an incomplete protein which is missing some crucial ones. We fortify ProT Gold with Tryptophan, Histidine, Methionine, Glutamine, Cysteine, and Taurine to make a complete protein that is more powerful than other collagen products.
  • Manufactured in the USA. Our collagen is produced domestically here in the United States.

Yes, we use sucralose as a sweetener in many of our products. Based on the predominance of well-designed, peer-reviewed studies, sucralose is regarded as a very safe alternative to sugar by almost all medical professionals.

A recent, scientifically questionable study raised concerns about a specific type of sucralose, sucralose-6-Acetate (S6A). We confirm that S6A is not present in our sucralose even at 0.001% sensitivity level. 

Yes! Our products are made up of a proprietary nano-hydrolyzed collagen protein. Collagen is the most abundant substance in the skin, connective tissue, muscles, and tendons, besides water. It's also the most important set of amino acids in the lining of the colon, working as the preferred source of energy for structure and healing. This building block is essential for restoring the integrity of a battered intestinal lining. Read More
