Collagen Sport : Ultimate Recovery Complex
Being a mom means you are constantly on the go. Sometimes we just need a little push to get through the day. Neo Cell has come up with a wide variety of products that help me. One of the ones I tried recently is Collagen Sport.

The 4 in 1 Breakdown:
1 – Refuel
Whey Protein Isolate is THE preferred and superior form of protein for athletes. It’s rich in essential and branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), necessary especially after strenuous workouts. BCAAs also play a role in the body’s levels of glutathione, an important antioxidant in the immune system. NeoCell’s whey protein isolate is developed using selective ion-exchange technology, which selects the primary functional and nutritional proteins alpha- and beta- lactoglobulins and other protein fractions for a highly effective and bio-active protein.
2 – Recover
Athletes all too often do not supplement their connective tissues in tendons and ligaments until deterioration sets in, resulting in the typical aches and pains of exercise. Super Collagen® 1&3 undergoes an absorption-enhancing process that uses enzyme hydrolyzation. This process yields low molecular weight collagen peptides for maximum bioavailability. Super Collagen® 1&3 is particularly rich in the amino acids glycine, proline, hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine, and supports recovery, strength, and flexibility of muscles, ligaments, and tendons.
3 – Regenerate
L-Glutamine & Exogenous Amino Acids – Strenuous activity burns through your body’s glutamine supplies, which can push the body to rip glutamine from your muscles if it isn’t coming from your diet. L-glutamine is the most abundant free-form amino acid in skeletal muscle and is crucial in the muscle recovery process. The special chemical structure of L-glutamine makes it the primary amino acid that drives nitrogen into muscle cells for muscle synthesis. Exogenous amino acids overall are important for increase of net muscle protein synthesis.
4 – Replenish
Each serving of Collagen Sport™ provides a good source of daily vitamins and minerals as well as the antioxidant power of Pomegranate extract. Increased activity results in higher oxidation in the body, requiring active individuals to counteract with high quality antioxidants. NeoCell’s pomegranate extract is standardized to 70% ellagic acid, an extraordinary antioxidant that fights cell-damaging free radicals generated during exercise.
Now that you got all the information you need about the product here comes my favorite part, my thoughts! I loved it. I tried French Vanilla and it tasted great. I didn’t have to add anything to it to make it taste good. I loved that it was a product that both my husband and I could use. I used it on days that I knew were going to take every bit of my energy. It gave me the extra push to get through it and not be wore out. Which is very important to us moms. Our family depends on us! My husband is a Physical Education teacher and strongly believes in weight lifting. He uses it to give him the extra help he needed with his weight lifting. I have always said there is nothing wrong with getting help when you need it. It just makes you a better person.
