There is no hard or fast rule for what makes a supplement or any other product "ocean-friendly". Like most things, it is dependent on what eco-friendly or sustainable means to you. For instance, those who are just starting their sustainability journeys might consider using reusable bags as a great eco-friendly option while still contributing to plastic waste via coffee cups, water bottles, and cutlery. On the other end of the spectrum, the most eco-conscious consumers might consider the taking of long showers or using a drying machine an ecological failure. Essentially,any improvement is an improvement!There is no such thing as being perfectly sustainable, ocean-friendly, or eco-friendly; every step helps and it's up to you to steer your own journey.
Large corporations and brands have a much bigger impact on our oceans than any one consumer can. That's why it's important to keep them accountable and "vote with your dollars" by purchasing products that align with your personal values.
Traceability, transparency, and eco-friendly practices are now becoming requirements for all companies, whether they're selling t-shirts, chocolate bars, or supplements. Here are some fast facts on why choosing eco-friendly supplements matter:
Using eco-friendly packaging is just the tip of the iceberg. Starting with how the plant is grown and harvested, to how it's packaged and shipped to your door, there are opportunities to make a supplement more eco-friendly at every step.
At Amandean, we are always looking for ways tomake supplements better for our bodies and planet. In addition to the two supplements listed below, we have created ourLiposomal Glutathione andVitamin C supplements from conscious sources rather than traditional sources. Our glutathione ismade from vegan Setria(TM) in Japan, and our vitamin C is madefrom Quali-C(TM) in Scotland.Neither contain any animal based or sea-based ingredients, nor harm or pollute the sea in any way. And as always, our supplements are sustainably-sourced from non-GMO ingredients, soy-free, and formulated with non-GMO sunflower lecithin.
Finding the right supplement for your unique health needs can be a battle in and of itself. Once you find which ingredients or nutrients you need to add to your diet, the next battle is to find a supplement that aligns with your personal dietary restrictions and values. Collagen and omega-3s are some of the most beneficial and well-rounded supplements that can benefit nearly everyone’s health and wellness, but they’re not all created equally. With Amandean, you can guarantee that you’re getting a supplement that does well by your body, and the planet.

"Mom, Dad, I got my acceptance letter! I'm going to Collagen College, home of the fighting Polypeptides!"
In recent years, the benefits of collagen have begun to be recognized among those who are serious about their health and perhaps are wanting to explore an "alternative" diet like keto or paleo. If you already follow a paleo or keto diet, you might be interested to know how collagen and collagen peptides can ensure that you've got your amino-acid bases covered.
You might also be wondering if intermittent fasting is a passing fad, like television or the internet. Maybe you've got no one to discuss your autophagy with or whether your ketosis will prevent you from passing the MCTs. Relax, pour yourself a cup of bulletproof coffee, and let's take a little collagen break together. Your Collagen College orientation is about to begin!

Though it's a fairly new product, here's what we know!
