What Do We Produce?
Proteem™ is in the business of producing protein powders. Our powders come as a multi-purpose general application or as customized blends that include additional ingredients such as L-glutamine, Creatine, to enhance the product formula to meet the specific needs of the
customer.
Our products consist of fine combinations of micro-filtered whey protein isolate and high purity whey protein concentrate. These proteins are highly digestible, contain complete amino acid profile, and retain important micro-factions that make whey a holistically healthy food.
Our products do not contain binders or fillers, do not use aspartame as a sweetener, do not make inaccurate label claims regardless of FDA allowances to do so.
Why Are We Better Than The Competition?
We provide nutritional supplement products that benefit our customers in achieving a variety of nutritional and health goals. Comparatively speaking, we are quite different from the other major competitors. For example, they need to be driven by shareholder interest and have an extensive layering of distribution increasing the non-material cost of goods sold. We, on the other hand, are a dynamic, privately held company producing superior products, answering exclusively to our customers, which affords us the ability to be highly competitive in our pricing structure for the quality of product we produce.
We are actively competing with other businesses that hype of brands owned by interest-based publications. These products tend to be more about flash and what is on the outside of the bottle or on the product ad than what is inside it. Fro example, in order to compensate, a competitor company may employ methods like the inclusion of cheap fillers, lesser grade proteins, or inaccurate label claims. Our product, on the other hand, is driven exclusively by the success of its consumer base. Proteem™ even goes as far as to provide customization options for its customers (in addition to standard product offerings). In doing so, we maintain an unrelenting focus on product quality and truth in labeling. We focus on product outcomes, customer satisfaction, and stronger tie our existing customers. We are the “Mom & Pop” of the supplement industry!
Why Use Protien Powders and Supplements?
Protein supports a variety of bodily needs including:
- Growth (especially important for children, teens, and pregnant women)
- Tissue repair
- Immune function
- Making essential hormones and enzymes
- Energy when carbohydrate is not available
- Preserving lean muscle mass
As a macro-nutrient, protein chains are utilized in a variety of ways. For some with specific medical conditions or even phases of life, e.g. during pregnancy, there is a marked increase in the need for protein.
Unfortunately, most individuals are under-consuming protein, leaving the body to look to itself to make up the difference. Borrowing from Peter to pay Paul scenario, which can occur in otherwise healthy individuals, is more pronounced in those who are ailing, which further complicates the maintenance of good health by reducing muscle mass, subsequently lowering the metabolic response, and leaving the body deplete of Nitrogen. Then the body is left unable to recover quickly, to fight disease as efficiently, to respond to insulin as appropriately, and to combat atrophy.
Proteem™ provides an easy to mix, tasty means for getting those missing grams of protein, and delivers it in an easy way that is suitable for even those individuals who can only consume very limited volumes.
Furthermore, our products are gastric-intestinal (GI) friendly, and have been consumed safely without distress, even in consumers suffering from Crohn’s disease and other GI maladies.
The nutritional supplement industry has a less than stellar reputation in the eyes of consumers. Businesses that have preceded us. or that operate with the sole mission of driving margin without outcomes, have contributed to the vast stereotypes associated with this industry. However, our modest origins and noble mission to help those who desire it, seek to introduce a breath of integrity and credibility into this industry.
How can we redefine customer perception and carve out a niche? The answer is simple, by placing quality and tangible outcomes first. Doing so may necessitate smaller profit margins, but we strongly feel that unbounded profitability is completely separated from the delivery of products that people actually benefit from.
Our two-pronged approach of providing General & Sports Nutrition products, as well as Nutritional Therapy products, we are better equipped to address specific customer needs.
Given the current climate of upward trends in obesity, a conscious movement toward non-steroidal means to promote anabolism, and a clear need for protein supplementation in the diets of most individuals, the time is right for you to start using Proteem™, LLC’s products!
