At SECONDSPRING®, every ingredient we use is carefully selected for one reason: it works. We don’t chase trends—we follow evidence. Our formulation is grounded in peer-reviewed research, third-party testing, and proven outcomes for women in midlife.
Here’s how the science supports your daily ritual:
Whey Protein Isolate
Whey protein isolate can be a valuable supplement during menopause to support muscle maintenance (especially alongside exercise), improve mood and sleep, aid in weight management, and counteract oxidative stress associated with aging. Combining WPI with a healthy lifestyle including resistance training and balanced nutrition appears most beneficial for menopause-related health.

Collagen Peptides
Collagen peptides play a key role in supporting skin elasticity, joint comfort, and connective tissue health, which can naturally decline with age and hormonal changes during menopause. Clinical studies show that consistent collagen supplementation may help reduce fine lines, improve skin hydration, and support bone health when combined with proper nutrition and lifestyle. For women navigating perimenopause and beyond, collagen peptides can be a simple, evidence-based addition to maintain strength, mobility, and confidence.

Vitamin D3 + Calcium
Vitamin D3 and calcium work together to support strong bones, muscle function, and overall vitality — areas of concern that become more important during perimenopause and menopause. Adequate intake helps reduce the risk of bone density loss, supports nerve and muscle health, and contributes to better resilience with age. For women over 35, this combination provides foundational support for both strength and long-term well-being.
