  • Ep 19 | Let's Talk LifePak + Collagen Benefits (With Tanner Gibb)

    What happens when beauty and nutrition work together?

    In this episode of Beneath the Label, Kathy Schultz sits down with Tanner Gib to explore the complementary benefits of Beauty Focus Collagen+ and LifePak Elements and why the combination can be more powerful than focusing on either one alone. 

    They break down the science behind bioactive collagen peptides, including why the size and composition of collagen peptides matter when it comes to supporting collagen synthesis. They also explore the role of key nutrients in LifePak Elements, including vitamin C, B vitamins, and biotin, and how these nutrients support processes involved in skin, hair, and nail health. 

    The conversation also dives into the importance of building a strong nutritional foundation. LifePak Elements is designed to help fill common gaps in the diet with vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients, while Collagen+ provides targeted beauty support. 

    And there's another layer to the conversation: Prysm iO. Both products are discussed in the context of Prysm certification and measurable carotenoid levels, bringing together targeted beauty support, foundational nutrition, and a way to track nutritional health. 

    Tune in to understand the science behind the synergy and why what you put into your body can be an important part of the beauty-from-within conversation.
