✅ What collagen supplements are used for

Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in the body — found in skin, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, bone, etc.
Supplements (often in hydrolysed or “collagen peptide” form) are used for purposes such as:

Improving skin appearance: hydration, elasticity, reducing fine lines/wrinkles.

Supporting joint health: cartilage, tendons, ligaments may benefit.

Supporting bone health: as part of bone structure, supplementing collagen may help bone mineral density.

Hair, nails & connective tissues: since collagen provides scaffolding for these, improved strength, growth or resilience are claimed.

Possibly gut and cardiovascular support: early research suggests roles in intestinal lining and arterial health.

🎯 More specific “Premier Collagen”

Skin hydration, firmness and elasticity enhancement.

Reduced appearance of wrinkles or improved skin tone (in marine-collagen versions).

Supporting joints, tendons, ligaments in their structure and mobility.

Today's product feature: Vitalux Plus

🍀Uses

Vitalux is indicated for helping to delay the progression of age‐related macular degeneration (AMD).

It supports overall eye health and vision maintenance.

There are versions aimed at general eye‐health support (for people exposed to digital screens, blue light, aging eyes) rather than only AMD.

🌟 Benefits

Here are the main benefits of Vitalux:

Contains antioxidants (notably vitamins C & E) which help protect eye tissues from oxidative stress (an important factor in AMD and other degenerative changes).

Includes zinc and copper which are important minerals for retinal health and visual function. For example, zinc is concentrated in retina cells and helps vitamin A metabolism.

Contains carotenoids such as lutein and zeaxanthin — these accumulate in the macula (central part of retina) and help filter harmful blue light + protect the macula from damage.

Some formulations include omega‐3 fatty acids (e.g., DHA/EPA) which support retinal cell membranes and reduce inflammation.

Helps maintain visual acuity over time, especially with aging, screen exposure, and for those at risk of degenerative eye disease.

📝 Summary

In short: Vitalux is designed as a proactive nutritional support for eye health, especially beneficial if you are over 50, have a family history of AMD, use screens a lot, or want to support your retina/macula with antioxidants and nutrients. It doesn’t replace medical treatments for eye disease, but it can be part of a holistic approach (nutrition + lifestyle + medical care) to preserve vision.

Hey guy's 🤗 we have gotten back Liquid IV in stock

Liquid IV is a brand of hydration/enhancement drink mixes (electrolyte powders) designed to help your body absorb water more efficiently and support hydration.

🍀What is in Liquid IV & How It Works

It uses what they call Cellular Transport Technology (CTT). The idea is that a specific ratio of sodium, glucose, and potassium helps your intestines absorb fluids faster and more effectively.

It contains electrolytes (sodium, potassium) plus other nutrients like B-vitamins (B3, B5, B6, B12) and vitamin C.

Some versions also have extra immune support (e.g. vitamin C, zinc) or even caffeine (in their “Energy” variant) or ingredients to help with sleep.

🍀Main Uses of Liquid IV

Here are situations where Liquid IV (or similar electrolyte/hydration mixes) can be helpful:

After exercise or any physically demanding activity (sweating, heat exposure) to replace lost fluids & electrolytes.

During illness that causes dehydration (e.g. fever, vomiting, diarrhea).

In hot weather / when doing outdoor work – helps prevent heat exhaustion.

Travel, especially flights (dry cabin air, less water intake), or jet lag situations.

Hangovers / after alcohol consumption when dehydration is a big factor.

As a more effective way to stay hydrated daily for people who struggle to drink enough plain water.

Benefits

Here are the reported or plausible benefits of using it:

1. Faster hydration — the combination of sodium + glucose helps your body absorb water more quickly than water alone.

2. Electrolyte replenishment — helps replace what is lost via sweat, illness, etc. Helps maintain fluid balance.

3. Reduced fatigue / improved recovery after workouts, long days, or dehydration caused by various factors.

4. Immune support — some versions have high vitamin C and zinc.

5. Convenience — single-serve packets, easy to carry, mix with water. Good for travel, outdoors, etc.
