Hydrolyzed Bovine Collagen Powder - Supports Joint Mobility, Skin & Hair Kosher - 300g

Our collagen powder supports your body's natural collagen synthesis which can often decrease with age, beginning around 30-35 years old. Collagen is a vital protein that comprises about 30% of your body's protein content and makes up 70-80% of your skin's dry weight. This key protein is integral in forming connective tissues throughout our bodies and is present in skin, nails, bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and teeth.

Collagen is largely composed of amino acids and comes in various types:

1. Collagen Type I: The most abundant form of collagen in the human body, it contributes significantly to skin, bone, ligaments, and even teeth. It is the primary component of your skin, potentially aiding in maintaining skin elasticity and hydration.

2. Collagen Type III: Essential for supporting skin health, this collagen type is a major component of our skin and organs.

The term 'peptide' refers to a compound consisting of two or more amino acids linked in a chain. Each acid is joined to the next by a bond of the type -OC-NH-. In relation to collagen, we refer to collagen peptides as small, easily digestible portions of collagen. This protein is found naturally in humans and animals, specifically in skin, cartilage, and bone.

Hyaluronic Acid, or HA, helps retain moisture, thus it is an effective ingredient for skin hydration. It is essential in cartilage regeneration, mobility restoration, skin layer nourishment and hydration, and it acts as a space-filler in dermal layers.

The Vitamin B complex in our collagen is crucial for releasing energy from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It includes:

1. Vitamin B6: Facilitates the metabolism of amino acids and glycogen, and supports normal nervous system function and red blood cell formation.

2. Niacin (Vitamin B3): Supports cellular energy production and nervous system function. It is water-soluble, meaning any excess is expelled through urine.

3. Riboflavin (Vitamin B2): Assists in cellular energy production. It might cause your urine to appear yellow.

4. Thiamin (Vitamin B1): Helps produce cellular energy and supports normal nervous system function. It must be consumed daily due to minimal storage in the body.

This collagen powder also include Vitamin A, which aids in maintaining healthy teeth, skeletal and soft tissues, mucus membranes, and skin. It is also integral to the pigmentation of the eye's retina.

Vitamin C is known to aid in protecting the skin from a variety of issues, including sunburn, photoaging, hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, sagging, dryness, and an uneven skin tone.

The term 'protein' refers to a molecule composed of amino acids. Proteins are essential for the body's proper functioning. They form the basis of body structures, such as skin and hair, and of other substances such as enzymes, cytokines, and antibodies.
