Edible hydrolyzed collagen of bovine origin, to be used as a protein source in nutritional food products. It has excellent organoleptic properties, providing better absorption in our body and instant solubility, allowing its use in a wide range of applications, such as functional foods, beverages, cereal bars, cosmetics, etc. Physical and chemical characteristics, instant solubility (dispersion and hydration), organoleptic properties, and packaging are strictly controlled to meet high-quality standards.
Collagen accounts for about 30% of all proteins in the human body. Its main functions are to provide support and elasticity to the skin, bones, cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. From the age of 30, the body loses approximately 1% of collagen per year, and by age 50, it produces only about 35% of the collagen necessary for maintaining beauty and health.
Daily use of hydrolyzed collagen has no contraindications and can stimulate the production of natural collagen, which decreases with time. Collagen supplementation is emerging as a new tool for maintaining health and beauty. Through the intake of such dietary supplements, our body significantly reaps the benefits of collagen.
Powdered hydrolyzed collagen helps our body maintain an adequate amount of muscle mass, helping to efficiently use fat reserves. Additionally, powdered hydrolyzed collagen is an effective ally against sagging skin and, when combined with physical activity, becomes an excellent protein source capable of synthesizing lean mass, preserving the youthful appearance of our body. Hydrolyzed collagen is a great ally for those who want to maintain beauty and health.
Skin Benefits Having healthy skin inside and out is a growing desire among all consumers (not just women). Your skin is the first sign of daily health, but it’s also the first indicator of aging. As the global population ages, there is a growing interest in skin health solutions.
- Promotes a younger-looking appearance;
- Improves skin hydration;
- Enhances skin smoothness;
- Prevents the formation of deep wrinkles;
- Improves skin elasticity.
The positive results of two scientific studies have provided vital credibility to the nutricosmetics industry. When consumed daily for up to 12 weeks, clinical studies show that regular collagen intake improves the essential condition and structure of your skin.
Health Benefits
Collagen is a scleroprotein composed of peptide chains with approximately 1,050 amino acids. Its structure is formed by three of these chains intertwined, creating what is known as a triple helix. When several of these helices intertwine, collagen fibrils are formed. These fibrils crosslink with each other, stabilizing and creating a three-dimensional network, a structure that is not water-soluble.
Bone and Joint Benefits
As the population ages, the effects of aging become more apparent. Two of the major health concerns are osteoarthritis and osteopenia (bone loss), the main causes of pain and disability. Today, we know that collagen can help prevent both of these age-related conditions.
In healthy bone function, there is constant tissue regeneration, ensuring that bones remain strong. Osteopenia occurs when there is an imbalance between normal bone wear and formation in the body, resulting in low bone mass and loss of bone tissue.
A joint is a point of connection between two bones. Osteoarthritis, the most common manifestation of arthritis, is a chronic degeneration of joints, currently considered by the World Health Organization as one of the top ten diseases in developed countries. For those suffering from the disease, the impact on quality of life is significant, as 80% experience movement limitations, and 25% are unable to perform basic daily activities.
