Ascent Protein is expanding multi-benefit collagen powders with Advanced Collagen Peptides, an unflavored daily supplement combining three ingredients for joint and skin support. Each serving contains 11 grams of bovine collagen peptides alongside hyaluronic acid to support skin hydration and elasticity and vitamin C to support natural collagen production and provide antioxidant benefits. The versatile powder can be mixed into hot or cold beverages, smoothies, oatmeal, yogurt, or protein shakes without changing their flavor.
The launch moves Ascent beyond traditional sports nutrition by addressing wellness needs that extend outside workouts and recovery. Combining multiple benefits in one formula may appeal to active consumers seeking simplified daily supplement routines. For Ascent, entering the collagen category also broadens its potential customer base across different activities and life stages while creating opportunities to compete in the wider performance and wellness market.
