Get the GEN on Collagen
Collagen is the body’s most abundant structural protein. It constitutes part of skin, hair, nails, bones and connective tissue, providing structural support and elasticity.
As we get older, our collagen content is depleted. Research has shown that this process can start as early as 25 years. By the time we are 40 we can lose up to one third of our collagen, causing poor hair growth, wrinkled and saggy skin and weakened ligaments and bone structure.
Taking collagen improves skin hydration and elasticity. It also improves bone mineral density which is important in preventing osteopenia and osteoporosis. It also has effect on stronger nail strength and hair fibres.
Liquid collagen is more easily digested and absorbed into the blood stream compared to tablets or powders. This is because the body has to work harder to break down collagen when it is taken as a solid product.
Each of our drinks contain 8000mg of hydrolysed marine collagen. Hydrolysed collagen means that is broken down into smaller peptides allowing for easy absorption. Vitamin C helps the body’s natural production of collagen so all our drinks contain vitamin C in order to improve skin health and strengthen connective tissue.
