Collagen C - 60 Capsules

Collagen supplementation is one of the most significant things a person can do to assist against premature aging. Collagen is an important building block of the body and it makes up around 30% of the proteins in the human body. Collagen is the key structural protein that ensures the cohesion, elasticity, and regeneration of our connective tissues, including skin, tendons, cartilage, ligaments, and bones. basically, its the glue that holds us together, and in fact, The word collagen comes from the Greek word for glue.

Although abundant in our youth, the body's natural collagen production typically slows at a rate of 1.5% per year after the age of 25. As the collagen production slows, the collagen fibres in the body become brittle and start to break down resulting in many of the signs of aging, such as loose, flaccid skin, wrinkles, ligament and tendon injuries.

As we age our collagen production reduces, and our body starts to fall apart, so we can benefit by consuming Collagen C, which is a potent peptide/vitamin mix that promotes the body to make more collagen. Its used to support the health of skin, nail, hair, bones, and tendons and can be beneficial to athletes, the elderly or those with arthritis.

What is in your capsules?
Our easy release Collagen C capsules contain 500mg of hydrolysed bovine collagen peptides and 50mg of vitamin C. This vitamin/peptide mix, promotes the body to create its own collagen.

What are peptides?
Collagen peptides is collagen that has been Hydrolyzed to form a soluble, easily digestible and highly bioactive form of collagen. The process of hydrolysis involves breaking down the molecular bonds between individual collagen strands using combinations of physical, chemical or biological means, which makes it more bioactive, meaning it's easier for the body to absorb it.

Why is bovine collagen the best?
There are some debates about which is the best source of collagen. We consider the collagen from mammals including bovine (cow) to be more superior in the use of human supplementation than other forms of collagen on the market such as fish, shark, and chicken, due to its the closest to human collagen, and therefore is used in the body better.

How does taking collagen improve skin?
Collagen is an important building block of the human body. As we age, the body produces less collagen. One of the things that start to deteriorate first due to insufficient collagen is the skin. This breakdown can be reversed by taking collagen.

Why does it also contain Vitamin C?
Although Vitamin C its self-has many benefits and is a powerful antioxidant, we add it to our collagen formula because the vitamin activates the collagen, to ensure absorption and usefulness. Taking collagen without vitamin C would have little or no benefits.
