Collagen is the body's basic structural protein that helps tissues and organs maintain the shape of cells and tissues. Marine-derived collagen has a similar structure to human skin collagen and can easily penetrate its deep layers.
Hydrolyzed collagen is a mixture of collagen peptides that is an excellent source of amino acids with very good tolerance, digestibility and bioavailability. It facilitates the synthesis of tissue collagen and its presence stimulates the synthesis of other collagenous tissue components, such as proteoglycans and hyaluronic acid.
Hydrolyzed collagen contributes to the reduction of pain and joint wear, to the improvement of functionality and favors the slowing down of the loss of bone mass.
On the skin, it reduces the signs of skin aging by reducing the depth, length and number of wrinkles. In addition, it creates firmer, smoother, more radiant and uniform skin. Hydrolyzed collagen also strengthens nails and hair.
Collagen plays a fundamental role in the phases of the wound healing process, participating in hemostasis, proliferation and tissue remodeling.
