What is collagen?
Collagen comes from the Greek words 'colla' and 'gen'. Together, the words mean 'produce glue' or 'bind together'. Collagen is therefore an important glue-forming protein in the body. It provides structure and elasticity in skin, hair, nails, bones, muscles and joints. Thirty percent of the protein in the body comes from collagen. Collagen is an important basic molecule for all connective tissues in your body.
Collagen Hydrolysate: an excellent source of protein
Collagen Hydrolysate is made by first converting collagen into the easily absorbable gelatin. This gelatin is further processed, whereby the proteins are broken into even smaller pieces using enzymes. Collagen hydrolysate is therefore very easily absorbable and the amino acids are immediately available to the body. Collagen hydrolysate can be dissolved in cold and warm liquids and remains liquid. Collagen powder contains, among other things, the important amino acids lysine and proline. These amino acids are important for the proper functioning of the body. Collagen also contains glycine. This is a semi-essential amino acid.
Collagen supplement: source of calcium, phosphorus and magnesium
Collagen Hydrolysate powder has many health benefits. It is a powerful source of protein and contains specific amino acids and amino acid compounds that the body can use well. Collagen also contains important minerals, such as calcium, phosphorus and magnesium, which are good for the teeth, skeleton, muscles, nervous system and the cell division process. Calcium in collagen also supports energy levels and digestion. Collagen is a complete protein source that is rich in glycine, proline and hydroxyproline. Collagen powder has a neutral taste and is suitable for daily use. You can easily mix the powder with cold or warm liquids, such as a shake or a smoothie.
