NEW!!! Plant-Based Collagen Building Protein Peptides

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

No hooves, no horns, no hides. Collagen is the most abundant protein in the Human Body. Pollutants in water, air, and food deplete our collagen storehouse, making replenishment vital. Most collagen supplements come from the bones, skin, and connective tissue of animals, including cattle, fish, horses, pigs, or rabbits. Why ingest animal-derived collagen when your body is designed to generate its own? Sunwarrior offers the plant-based solution, tailored to boost your body’s inherent collagen production.

Sunwarrior now provides a collagen-building protein peptides supplement that is completely plant-based.

Collagen is a complex long-chain protein that accounts for over 30 percent of all of your body’s protein. Since the body produces collagen at a slower rate past the age of 35, having enough collagen is essential to your health especially as you age.

Collagen makes up your skin, bones, intestinal barrier, muscles, tendons, and joints. It acts like a glue for your entire body by keeping things pulled together and working properly. Backed by scientific research, collagen is best known for its benefits for smoother skin, stronger bones, and healthier joints.

Creating more collagen in the body consists of two approaches:

  1. The first approach is consuming sources of collagen protein that are found in animal products.
  2. The second, plant-based diet friendly approach is to give the body the nutrients it needs to create its own collagen.

There is discussion about other substances found in animal-based collagen as well. A study conducted by the Consumer Wellness Center found antibiotics, drugs, and chemicals in many animal-based collagen powders. Long-term consumption of these powders can lead to antibiotic resistance.

On the other hand, studies have pointed towards the effectiveness of the no hooves, no horns, and no hides alternative of using collagen building protein peptides to ensure that minimal processing takes place. With Sunwarrior’s doctor-formulated collagen building protein peptides, essential amino acids (Glycine, Proline, Hydroxyproline, Arginine, Alanine, Valine, Lysine), silica, biotin, hyaluronic acid, and other ingredients like Sea Buckthorn (high in vitamin C), you will have the ingredients your body needs to produce collagen on its own. Our bodies are coded to create collagen more efficiently than breaking down a foreign collagen anyways.

Since collagen is a protein that only comes from bones, hides, hooves, horns and other parts of animals, people who are plant-based (vegan) want a supplement that adheres to their values while providing them with the benefits of collagen. Or if you want to reduce your meat consumption or are concerned about the toxins that are prevalent in a lot of these powders, a collagen builder is a great alternative.

“We are excited to provide a more effective and sustainable plant-based alternative to collagen sourced from animals,” says Denley Fowlke, co-founder of Sunwarrior. “With the quality of ingredients and the science behind them, we believe we’ve created a product that will provide better results than the collagen products on the market.”

Sunwarrior’s plant-based collagen building protein peptides comes in two flavors; Tahitian Vanilla and Chocolate Fudge. It is non-GMO, soy-free, gluten-free, sugar-free, and dairy-free, with most ingredients being organic.

Sunwarrior is a plant-based proteins and superfoods supplement company whose mission is to nourish and transform the planet. Sunwarrior was founded in 2008. They do this by providing top quality plant-based proteins, superfood supplements and education on natural health, fitness tips, and vegan recipes on their website at Sunwarrior.com.

OSLO, Norway, Nov. 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Shareholders representing approximately 24% of the shares and votes of B2 Impact ASA request an Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting to elect new Board of Directors.

A group of shareholders in B2 Impact ASA (the “Company”) including the founding partner Jon Harald Nordbrekken and associated companies; Valset Invest AS and F2Kapital AS together with Gulen Invest AS (the “Shareholders”) have today, in accordance with section 5-7 (2) of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act, jointly requested that the board of directors of the Company convenes an Extraordinary General Meeting in the Company to resolve on the election of new members of the Board until the next annual general meeting in 2024. Prioritet Group AB, the largest shareholder in the Company also supports the request for appointment of a new board. Jointly, the request is put forward by shareholders representing approximately 24% of the Company’s shares.

Following the election, the new board is proposed to be composed of four new Directors, including Anders Engdahl as Chairman, Jon Harald Nordbrekken as Vice Chairman, Ellen Hanetho as Director, Nils Wiberg as Director and re-election of Jessica Sparrfeldt.

“I am very pleased that we are able to propose such an experienced board with over hundred years of combined industry experience. The debt collection industry is facing a number of critical challenges posed by rising interest rates, inflation as well as rapid technological change. At the same time, it also presents a number of attractive opportunities as many competitors struggle to adapt to this new environment. For B2 Impact ASA to capitalize on these opportunities we believe it is the right time to appoint new leadership and for the owners to take a more active role in the transformation of the business. To support this change, I will assume an active role on the Board of Directors to help realize the full potential of the business,” says Jon Harald Nordbrekken, founding partner and shareholder of B2 Impact ASA.

The Shareholders are of the view that the Company needs to reconsider its strategy and focus on the following core areas:

  1. Reduce Cost and Complexity: Structurally reduce group common and local overhead costs through simplified decentralized governance and removing all non-value added activities.
  2. Enhance Focus: Reduce geographic footprint, build volume and leverage in-market scale. Going forward, the company should focus on collection of unsecured consumer receivables.
  3. Reduce Indebtedness: Adopt capital light strategy including a partnership with an international investment fund to invest in portfolios outside the Company’s balance sheet, release capital, reduce indebtedness and interest expenses and drive servicing fees.
  4. Invest in Technology: Accelerate digital adoption by investing into modern collection system technology that could substantially lower cost-to-collect through automated workflows and smarter processes.
  5. Deliver Profitable Growth: Create profitable organic servicing revenue growth through co-operation with portfolio investors and banks in selected markets as well as acquisitions of businesses that allow the Company to leverage economies of scale.

“I am honoured and excited to be proposed as new Chairman of B2 Impact ASA. I expect to work closely with the new Board of Directors and management to lead the re-orientation of the Company. I believe that if adopting a capital light strategy, the Company is well positioned to take advantage of the emerging opportunities and supportive NPL cycle that can deliver substantial value to shareholders over next few years,” says Anders Engdahl, proposed Chairman of the Board.

In addition, it has been proposed that the following members shall be elected to the Nomination Committee until the annual general meeting in 2024: Frode Foss-Skiftesvik as Chairman, Kjetil Andreas Garstad as Member and Niklas Wiberg as Member.
