Collagen peptides, whether orally ingested or topically administered, have positive effects on health and beauty. Collagen is vital for the elasticity, flexibility and strength of skin, tendons and ligaments, but also of the cornea, cartilage, bones, blood vessels and gut.
Fish-derived collagen peptides are receiving more and more attention due to their favourable characteristics and fewer consumer reservations compared to other mammal-derived ingredients. Collagen obtained from marine sources are of type 1, which is the main type in humans. The bioavability of marine collagen is superior to collagen of both bovine or porcine. Studies have proven the impact of marine collagen peptides on personal appearance and the musculoskeletal system.
Type I collagen from Seagarden is derived contains bioactive oligopeptides obtained from the skin of cod, white cod fish and salmon. The collagen is hydrolyzed into short bioactive oligopeptides that can be absorbed immediately by the body.
