No marketing spin, just the real science behind the ingredients that actually matter. Learn their story, what makes them powerful, and how NUYU puts them to work.
Background: Collagen is the scaffolding of your body — it holds skin, hair, nails, and joints together. From your mid-20s, natural production starts to drop, leading to wrinkles, weaker joints, and slower recovery. Not all collagen is equal: bovine sources mostly give you Type II, better for joints, while marine collagen (Type I) is closer to the type found in human skin and connective tissue. Pairing collagen with silica (from bamboo) plus Vitamin C helps your body actually use it.
Magnesium powers over 300 biochemical reactions in the body — everything from energy production to nerve signaling to muscle relaxation. Yet it’s one of the most common nutrient gaps worldwide, thanks to modern diets and stress draining levels faster. Deficiency can show up as poor sleep, cramps, low energy, or anxiety. Different forms matter massively for absorption.
Known as the “king of adaptogens,” ashwagandha has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for over 3,000 years. Traditionally given to improve resilience, restore vitality, and balance stress responses, it’s now one of the most researched herbs for stress and mood. Its power comes from active compounds called withanolides.
Your gut is home to trillions of microbes that affect digestion, immunity, even mood. Stress, antibiotics, and processed diets can knock this delicate balance out, leading to bloating, discomfort, and reduced resilience. Probiotics are live “good bacteria” that help restore balance — but not all strains do the same job.
Famous in skincare creams, hyaluronic acid (HA) also works from the inside. It’s a molecule your body naturally makes to keep joints cushioned and skin hydrated. Levels decline with age, leading to dryness, stiffness, and dullness.
Omega-3s are essential fats your body can’t make itself. Found in oily fish, they’re critical for brain function, heart health, and inflammation balance. Modern Western diets tend to skew heavily toward omega-6 fats (vegetable oils), which can throw the balance off.
A root prized in Chinese medicine for centuries, ginseng is used as a tonic for vitality, stamina, and longevity. Modern research backs its role in energy metabolism and stress balance. Its power comes from ginsenosides, bioactive compounds that influence multiple systems.
