Unveiling TruMarine® Collagen’s Power Against Fatigue

Those in my life understand my extreme passion for sleep and energy. Since incorporating TruMarine® Collagen into my daily routine, I’ve personally noticed a positive shift in both areas and as someone who struggled with the realities of insomnia for over two years, consistently sleeping well after felt like a dream come true (literally). When we encountered recent research linking collagen to reduced fatigue and increased vitality¹, it validated my experience. Let’s dive into how TruMarine® Collagen could support your energy and wellness goals.

The Realities of Fatigue

Fatigue isn’t just about being tired; it affects our physical and mental health. We may feel irritable, sluggish, or mentally foggy. These effects can often accumulate and impact our daily lives. While collagen is widely recognized for improving skin, nails, and joint health, new research suggests additional benefits of adding TruMarine® Collagen to your wellness routine.

TruMarine® Collagen’s Impact on Mood: New Discoveries

A recent study published in the Journal of Dietary Supplements explored how TruMarine® Collagen peptides affect mood and energy. In this eight-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 62 adults, those who took 10g of TruMarine® collagen per day reported noticeable reductions in fatigue and an increase in overall vigour ¹. The study also found that hydrolyzed marine collagen sourced from fish scales (the source used by withinUs) supports restful sleep and cognitive function, helping reduce fatigue and improve mood. ¹


The Science Behind It

TruMarine® Collagen contains amino acids like glycine and proline, which influence neurotransmitter activity. Glycine, in particular, has been shown to improve sleep quality and reduce anxiety. ²

Supplementing with TruMarine® collagen gives your body tools to manage stress and fatigue better, potentially enhancing mood and motivation through increased dopamine levels. ¹

Our TruMarine® Collagen + Magnesium product is a perfect complement to these benefits. It offers 2.5g of TruMarine® collagen per serving and a blend of Magnesium Bisglycinate and citrate. I have been guilty of double-dosing this product and drifting off like I’ve been transported to another realm of deep, uninterrupted sleep.
