Collagen for Beautiful Skin Collagen supports the skin, keeping it supple and lovely. As collagen breaks down, the skin sags, wrinkles form, and lines appear. Collagen leads to younger looking, firmer skin. Collage supplements also improve hair, skin, and nails – all made primarily of collagen.
A study of women from 25 to 50 who used hydrolyzed fish collagen supplements daily for six weeks found improvements in a wide range of skin concerns, from wrinkles and dark spots to dark circles under the eyes and acne. 70% to 95% of the women saw improvements in each metric, when measured by microscope and other lab equipment, as well as by the women’s own observations. Since the age range of the women was broad, the results are even better than they seem at first: 72% of women saw improvement in wrinkles, for example, and many of those who did not were young women who had no wrinkles to begin with. Why Fish Collagen Is Superior to Bovine and Porcine Collagens for Skin Rejuvenation Collagen is a major structural protein found inside and outside of our bodies. It is a unique building material comprised of amino acids that provides strength and structural support to our bones, skin, tendons, ligaments, and blood vessels. Although we can get collagen from the food we eat, factors like pollution, aging, and smoking lead to a high rate of collagen degradation over time, resulting in wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin. There are three main types of collagen found in collagen supplements and skincare products: bovine, porcine, and fish collagens. Porcine and bovine collagens are cheaper than fish or marine collagen, so most collagen products on the market are derived from these sources. Bovine collagen originates from cows, while porcine collagen originates from pigs. The collagen is taken from the skin or tendons of these animals. Approximately 3% of the population is allergic to bovine collagen. Porcine collagen is more similar to human collagen, so allergic responses are rare. Fish collagen, also known as ‘marine collagen’, is extracted from cold sea fish. After manufacturers extract collagen from fish, they refine it to remove the unpleasant fishy odor and taste while retaining the collagen’s nutritional value. Fish collagen has superior bioavailability, which is the rate at which a substance is absorbed into the body when ingested. Typically derived from salmon and red snapper, fish collagen is up to 1.5 times more absorbent than bovine or porcine collagen because of its low molecular weight. Fish collagen is absorbed through the intestinal barrier into the bloodstream and then carried throughout the body. Pure fish collagen enters the bloodstream more quickly than other types of collagen, so it is the best source of collagen for your skin. Low Molecular Weight Hyrdrolized Fish Collagen Peptide Powder is the best collagen for skin rejuvenation. Collagen is the largest molecule in the human body. Often referred to as the ‘supermolecule’,
the average molecular weight of a collagen molecule is 300,000 Daltons, too
large to be absorbed by the body when ingested in its native form. Fish collagen
is hydrolyzed (broken down using heat and water) into low molecular weight
peptides for maximum bioavailability. Our hydrolyzed fish collagen with a low molecular weight of 5,000 Daltons,
which aids its absorption to the skin and in the body. 20 Amino Acids in Hydrolyzed Fish Collagen: |
