Overview:
Advance
Protein
Powder
(APP)
is
a
high
quality,
organically
derived,
wild
marine-­‐based
protein
powder,
which
is
highly
stable
with
a
shelf
life
of
over
5
years.
It
is
virtually
odorless
and
tasteless
with
high
levels
of
naturally
occurring
organic
minerals
giving
it
a
nutritional
profile
superior
to
other
protein
powders
on
the
market.
APP
is
made
using
a
patent-­‐
pending
manufacturing
process
that
is
both
green
and
sustainable.
It
is
non-­‐hygroscopic
and
very
moisture
resistant,
contributing
to
its
long
shelf
life.
This
report
presents
an
overview
of
the
health
benefits
of
the
all
natural
Advance
Protein
Powder
comparing
it
with
BlueWave,
another
fish
protein
product
on
the
market
and
also
with
several
examples
from
the
two
most
common
protein
supplement
categories
available:
whey
and
soy.

About
Whey
protein
powder
Whey
used
to
be
considered
a
dairy
industry
waste
product.
Whey
is
what
remains
after
the
butter,
cream,
milk
is
drawn
off
and
the
cheese
has
been
made.
The
dairy
industry
long
considered
whey
a
problem
because
dumping
it
into
sewer
systems
or
feeding
it
to
pigs
cost
as
much
or
slightly
more
than
the
value
of
the
whey
as
a
commodity.
This
problem
was
solved
when
manufacturers
developed
techniques
for
drying
the
whey
at
high
temperatures
and
putting
the
powders
into
body
building
powders,
high
protein
bars
and
other
food
products.i
While
there
are
some
high
quality
whey
protein
powders
available,
many
more
are
of
marginal
or
poor
quality.
The
most
expensive
and
better
quality
products
are
made
from
organic
milk
and
processed
at
low
temperatures
to
preserve
the
maximum
amino
acid
content
potential
and
maintain
a
full
range
of
important
protein
components
such
as
immunoglobulins
and
serum
albumin
(which
are
also
present
in
APP
fish
protein).
The
quality
of
other
whey
protein
powders
can
vary
widely
depending
on
the
source
of
the
milk
used
as
well
as
the
various
steps
in
processing.
Commercial
milk
often
contains
growth
hormone
(rBGH)
and
a
number
of
antibiotics;
the
FDA
has
approved
thirty.
An
estimated
sixty
percent
of
herbicides
used
in
the
U.S.
as
well
as
pesticides
and
other
petrochemicals
are
applied
to
produce
higher
yields
of
feed
crops
that
are
eaten
by
commercial
dairy
cows
and
are
present
in
the
milk
they
produce.
As
you
can
see,
the
quality
of
the
whey
can
only
be
as
good
as
the
quality
of
the
food,
nutrition
and
care
given
to
the
cows.
The
Whey
protein
products
chosen
for
this
comparison
represent
products
that
are
available
for
purchase
in
bulk
or
commonly
used
in
protein
drinks
and
bars.
They
include
an
organic
whey
protein
product
from
Source
Organic
who
declare
their
cows
have
never
been
given
hormones,
antibiotics,
steroids,
or
genetically
modified
feed
(GMO).
The
others
are
plain
protein
products
with
no
flavoring
added.
Whey
protein
(of
good
quality)
is
one
of
the
most
bio-­‐available
sources
of
supplemental
protein
available
at
96-­‐98%.
As
mentioned,
the
quality
can
vary
considerably
depending
on
the
milk
source
and
the
methods
used
in
processing.

About
Soy
protein
powder
The
Solae
Company,
owned
by
DuPont,
is
a
leader
in
developing
soy
products
and
ingredients
for
food.
On
their
website
they
tout
the
healthy
benefits
of
their
soy
protein
and
discuss
the
sustainability
of
soy
and
the
limited
environmental
impact
of
growing
it.
While
it
may
well
be
true
that
soy
production
uses
less
water
and
provides
more
usable
protein
per
acre
than
other
crops
or
animals,
these
markers
of
sustainability
come
at
a
big
price.
Currently
93%
of
all
soy
grown
in
the
U.S.
is
genetically
modified
(Fernandez-­‐Cornejo
07/5/2012)
ii
.
A
number
of
studies
over
the
past
decade
have
revealed
that
genetically
engineered
foods
can
pose
serious
risks
to
humans,
domesticated
animals,
wildlife
and
the
environment.
Human
health
effects
can
include
higher
risks
of
toxicity,
allergenicity,
antibiotic
resistance,
immune-­‐suppression
and
cancer.
As
for
the
environment,
genetic
modification
allows
these
plants
to
be
sprayed
more
heavily
with
herbicides
and
pesticides,
further
polluting
our
air,
land,
and
water
supplies.
There
are
additional
health
problems
associated
with
the
use
of
soy
protein.
Soy
contains
goitrogens
that
block
thyroid
hormones,
lowering
metabolism,
disrupting
endocrine
function
and
can
lead
to
Hashimotos
or
Graves
autoimmune
disorders.
There
are
a
number
of
compounds
in
the
soybean
that
inhibit
digestion.
In
addition,
soy
contains
high
amounts
of
phyto
(plant)
estrogens
which
promote
high
estrogen
levels
(and
hormonal
imbalance)
in
both
men
and
women
(Daniel,
PhD,
CCN
2005)
iii
.
There
are
two
soy
protein
products
included:
NutriBio
and
Bulkfoods.
Both
are
pure
protein
products
with
no
flavoring
or
additives.

Because
APP
uses
all
parts
of
the
fish
including
bones
and
skin,
it
has
a
naturally
occurring,
balanced
organic
mineral
profile,
something
not
possible
in
other
protein
powders.
Note
the
especially
good
levels
of
calcium
with
a
detail
of
the
benefits
below:
• The
CDCP
(Center
for
Disease
Control
&
Prevention)
estimates
most
Americans
consume
only
40-­‐50%
of
the
RDA
of
calcium.
• Most
supplements
and
foods
are
fortified
with
inferior
forms
of
calcium
that
are
poorly
utilized
within
the
body.
• The
calcium
in
APP
is
specific
to
the
fish
it
is
produced
from
and
is
therefore
a
synergistic
component
with
all
the
nutrients
available.
And,
because
protein
enhances
calcium
absorption
it
becomes
more
bio-­‐available
(Kerstetter
et
al.
2003).iv
• Calcium
is
needed
for
blood
pressure,
heartbeat,
and
nerve
regulation
(Beauchamp
2006).v
• It
is
vital
for
bones,
teeth,
and
epithelial
(skin,
lung,
gut)
tissue.

6.
Julie
Spero,

• Calcium
is
an
important
component
of
immune
function
(Alastra
2011).vi
• It
strongly
correlates
to
weight
regulation
and
loss
(Université
Laval
2009).vii
APP
is
easily
digestible
with
a
high
Biological
Value
(BV)
Digestion
is
vital
to
all
nutrient
absorption
and
assimilation.
Many
people
have
compromised
digestive
ability
due
to
factors
such
as
pharmaceutical
drug
use
and
age-­‐related
reduction
in
digestive
enzyme
production.
Fish
in
general
is
one
of
the
easiest
proteins
to
digest,
while
many
people
have
problems
digesting
the
proteins
in
dairy
and
soy
products.
The
BV
value
of
APP
is
similar
to
that
of
Whey
Protein
and
far
superior
to
that
of
Soy.
APP
has
fewer
calories
per
25
grams
of
protein
due
to
the
absence
of
carbohydrates
and
fats
in
the
finished
product.
Fish
Protein
Research
Research
on
fish
protein
(FP)
supports
the
following
health
benefits
over
other
forms
of
protein.
It
has
been
most
often
compared
with
casein,
the
protein
found
in
milk.
The
following
qualities
have
been
reported
in
various
research
studies
involving
fish
protein:
• FP
has
been
shown
to
lower
LDL
cholesterol
levels
as
well
as
increase
HDL,
improving
the
ratios
while
lowering
total
cholesterol
(Bergeron
1989)viii
,
(Bergeron
1992).ix
• One
study
showed
lower
triglyceride
levels,
reduced
weight
gain
and
lower
blood
pressure
from
FP
use.
The
report
suggests
the
amino
acid
ratios
may
be
a
significant
contributor
to
these
findings
(Ait-­‐Yahia
2003)x
(Ait
Yahia
2005).xi
• FP
can
lower
C-­‐Reactive
Protein
(a
blood
marker
for
inflammation)
which
has
a
strong
correlation
with
CVD,
and
improve
insulin
sensitivity
in
people
with
a
BMI
>25
(Ouellet
2008).xii

• Fish
protein
peptides
can
decrease
hypertensive
symptoms
(Kawasaki
2002).xiii
• Studies
show
FP
increases
immune
response
(Tang
2008).xiv
• FP
has
demonstrated
the
ability
to
restore
intestinal
integrity
(Cinq-­‐Mars
2008).xv
• Fish
protein
improves
insulin
sensitivity
in
insulin-­‐resistant
men
and
women
(Ouellet
et
al.
2007).xvi
All
Natural,
Environmentally
Friendly,
Green
Manufacturing
Process
and
Sustainable
Abundant
Sourcing
Advance
Protein
Powder
is
naturally
sourced
from
multiple,
abundant,
and
sustainable
wild
marine-­‐based
sources
worldwide.
These
include
a
wide
variety
of
green-­‐list
fish
such
as
sardines,
macros
and
other
similar
species
in
addition
to
having
the
widely
available
option
of
utilizing
what
is
known
as
"bycatch".
Bycatch
are
very
small
fish
either
caught
unintentionally
or
purchased
as
imperfect
discards
from
processing
facilities;
such
as
in
sardine
canning.
APP
can
also
be
produced
from
what
some
consider
a
waste
product
of
the
fishing
industry.
In
contrast
to
whey
though,
the
bycatch
used
here
are
not
exposed
to
toxic
feeds,
as
are
commercial
dairy
cows.
APP
is
completely
wild
and
not
sourced
from
any
farmed
fish
or
farmed
fish
byproducts
and
contains
no
GMO.
The
small
and
abundant
species
of
fish
used
as
the
raw
material
make
APP
an
earth
and
ocean
friendly
product
with
a
low
carbon
footprint.
Eurofins
Testing
Samples
of
APP
have
undergone
multiple
rounds
of
analysis
by
Eurofins
Scientific,
Inc.,
a
leader
in
food,
pharma,
and
environmental
laboratory
testing.
Because
of
the
small
size
of
the
fish,
the
heavy
metal/toxin
exposure
is
negligible.
All
tests
have
confirmed
mercury,
lead,
and
other
metals
at
<0.05
ppm.
This
is
well
below
International
Pharmaceutical
Standard
of
0.1
ppm.
Further
analysis
by
Eurofins
showed
a
very
high
rate
-­‐
or
ease
-­‐
of
digestibility
(using
a
Pepsin
Test)
making
the
amino
acids
and
minerals
very
bio-­‐available.
Advance
Protein
Powder
has
a
long,
stable
shelf
life;
a
sample
produced
in
2005
and
tested
in
2012
showed
a
profile
consistent
with
a
current

Potential
for
Allergic
Response
All
three
protein
sources
discussed
here
are
among
the
top
eight
most
allergenic
foods
known.
These
eight
foods
include:
milk/dairy,
eggs,
soy,
peanuts,
tree
nuts,
shellfish,
finfish,
and
wheat
(in
no
particular
order).
Food
allergies
can
be
a
problem
for
people
and
in
some
cases
a
very
serious
one.
The
CDC's
(Centers
for
Disease
Control
and
Prevention)
National
Center
for
Health
Statistics
reports
that
these
foods
account
for
90
percent
of
all
food
allergies.
According
to
the
National
Institute
of
Health
(NIH),
allergy
to
eggs,
milk,
peanuts,
tree
nuts,
soy,
and
wheat
are
most
likely
to
occur
in
children.
In
Adults,
the
most
common
foods
that
cause
allergic
(anaphylaxis)
reactions
are
shellfish,
peanut
and
tree
nuts,
and
then
fish.
