Hi Skiers,

We’re Alex and Jeff, the creators of an athlete-trusted super protein called Frog Fuel.

We know that skiing is one of the most physically demanding sports out there. Bumps, bruises, and injuries are part of the sport.

If you’re interested in recovering faster from long ski days and relieving nagging injuries, all in a little packet that you can take with you on the chair lift, then we’d like to tell you a bit about our super protein, Frog Fuel.

Frog Fuel is a medical grade, nano-hydrolyzed collagen protein made in the US from grass-fed cows.

Now, if you don’t know much about collagen, after water, it’s the single most abundant substance in the body.

It’s in just about everything, from blood vessels, to tendons, to joints, and muscles.

The right collagen protein supplement goes directly to all of these areas and starts the repair and recovery process within minutes.

For skiers, collagen is especially important, because skiing puts a ton of stress on connective tissues. Collagen keeps those tissues supple, strong, and pain-free.

Frog Fuel has several properties that separate it from a typical collagen supplement, though.

It’s nano-hydrolyzed, which means the particles are very small and can go directly to your joints, muscles, and tendons to speed up the recovery process.

In fact, Frog Fuel is proven to digest in just 15 minutes (4x faster than whey protein) so it can go to work helping heal your joints and muscles within minutes.

Frog Fuel is also fortified to contain all of the building blocks of protein, the amino acids. Most proteins contain some but not all of the amino acids. But for optimal repair, we need all 22.

Specific research on our nano-hydrolyzed protein has shown some amazing recovery benefits.

In one study, taking Frog Fuel after hard training led to decreased soreness and increased jumping performance the next day. Just from a little packet of protein.

In another study on athletes with nagging knee pain, those that took just 5g of our nano-hydrolyzed collagen protein daily for 12 weeks (compared to a placebo)...

Suffered from less pain both during training and while resting.

In fact, those in the nano-hydrolyzed collagen protein group, later on, needed significantly less treatment for their knee.

That’s the power of Frog Fuel, and it’s why it’s so popular with many of the best athletes in the world.

It’s even used in clinical settings for over 14 different medical uses.

For example, a skier, whose dedication to the mountain we have to admire, suffered severe frostbite after skiing 44 consecutive days in Utah. After two weeks in the hospital and amputation looming, the wound specialist decided on an experimental treatment: our nano-hydrolyzed collagen protein.

Within just one day, his flesh started to improve. Frog Fuel’s protein literally saved this man from losing his toes.

Finally, Frog Fuel is convenient for athletes. It comes in ready-to-drink packets that require no mixing. Just ‘rip and sip,’ as we say.

The packet only weighs one ounce, so you can easily slip it into your pocket and take it with you on your next ski run. We use a low-volume formula that’s only packed with the best stuff, so you won’t feel bloated like you may with protein shakes or powders.

In fact, some of our ski customers love to bring it with them to the mountain and rip open on their first run of the day. It can be a quick, nutrient-dense breakfast to help you beat the line on the chair lift and be the first on the day’s fresh powder.

So if you’re looking to feel better on the slopes, recover faster, and perform your best, we invite you to try a box and see firsthand why Frog Fuel is the most powerful protein in the world.

Just for the skiers, we’re giving you 10% off your entire order with the code, “NSCF10”
