Pro-Active Collagen Products
Collagen supplement for human consumption is sourced from pork, beef, marine, or poultry and can be derived from various forms such as bone, cartilage, hides, fish scales, etc.
Collagen from these protein sources needs to be broken down first so that your body can use it – this is known as Hydrolyzed Collagen.
Hydrolyzed Collagen is produced through a process called enzymatic hydrolysis where water molecules rupture the bonds between individual collagen strands, resulting in small, intact, and undamaged amino acids. These amino acids are quickly absorbed into the bloodstream and are used as the building blocks of new collagen.
Hydrolyzed Collagen is important for our bodies because:
- It is easily absorbed (high percentage of bioavailability)
- It releases three times more amino acids which are essential for the synthesis of new collagen in your body.
All Collagen supplements are hydrolyzed but they are derived from different protein sources, broken down in varying degrees and available in various formats including liquid, powders, and tablets. Your choice of a quality Collagen Supplement should consider these factors.
