PRESENCE’s plant based formula provides the nutritional foundation for collagen synthesis.
Johns Hopkins, Professor of Nutrition. Fos Scientific Advisor.
Science Backed Benefits
Your Healthiest Skin, Hair and Nails Yet
We formulated PRESENCE with help from Johns Hopkins University academics, reviewing thousands of clinical studies, and testing hundreds of product iterations.
The result? A revolutionary whole-food formula providing long-term, scientifically- proven benefits:
Health Benefits
A complete protein, our Organic Pea Protein contains all essential amino acids—including Lysine, Leucine, Proline, and Methionine.
This plant-based formula supports collagen formation as a foundation of collagen synthesis.
Additionally, Lysine and Methionine may support hair growth.

Health Benefits
May help to promote the body's natural collagen production
by supporting procollagen (a precursor to collagen) synthesis.
Combined with fibroblasts (a cell in connective tissue wich produces collagen
and other fibers) may help prove skin, hair, and nails firmness and strength.
May also assits in antioxidant protection against UV-induced photodamage.
Finally, Vitamin C may aslo improve inmune function and resistence to illness.
