WHAT ARE THEY?
Collagen peptides are derived from bovine, porcine, or marine sources. They are typically more than 90% protein, and are highly bioavailable (they have a quick and active effect, as they are easily utilized by the body) and can be used in topical or supplement form. Their high nutritional and physiological elements make them an excellent choice for anyone looking to upgrade their health.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF COLLAGEN PEPTIDES?
(Improved Skin Quality) consumption of collagen peptides significantly increases skin hydration after 8 weeks, and visibly improves wrinkles after only 4 weeks!! This according to research conducted by the National Center for Biotechnology.
(Joint Health) When compared to a placebo, collagen peptide consumption was shown to have obvious therapeutic effects on individuals with osteoarthritis. It does this by increasing elastin synthesis in both the tendons and ligaments, allowing for ease of movement and greater flexibility.
(Gut Health; repairs and maintains) This wonder protein source contains high levels of Glutamine. This amino acid helps by boosting immune cell activity in the gut, which protects it from inflammation and infection. It has also been shown to reduce spasms in the intestines.
(Weight Control) This protein contains Glycine and Proline, which help to fight inflammation in the intestinal track as well, but also increase metabolism and breakdown of fatty foods.
(Bone Formation) Many people may not realize that the bones are largely made up of collagen. Supplementation greatly increases the organic substance of the bone, leading to a higher bone mass density or BMD.
(Heart Health) Collagen provides structure to your arteries, which are responsible for carrying blood from the heart to the body.
(Muscle Growth and Repair) Intake of collagen peptides aid in the production of muscle proteins such as creatine, and help induce muscle growth after exercise.
Other benefits of collagen peptides include- improved hair and nails, improved liver function, helps reduce cellulite and stretch marks, assists in maintaining healthy teeth and gums, and may even be beneficial in balancing hormones.
