Hydrolyzed Collagen

What is Hydrolyzed Collagen?

Hydrolyzed Collagen is a processed form of collagen, the key structural protein in skin, bones, tendons and cartilage. It is obtained through a process of hydrolysis, which involves breaking down collagen molecules into smaller fragments, called peptides. These peptides are more easily absorbed by the body.

One of its main active ingredients is collagen peptides, which are rich in essential amino acids, especially glycine, proline and hydroxyproline. These amino acids are essential for the health of the skin and other connective tissues.

It contributes to skin firmness and elasticity, helping to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. It can also strengthen nails, hair and improve joint health.

Hydrolyzed Collagen is found in products such as nutritional supplements, shake powders, anti-aging creams and skin serums. Its presence in these products is intended to support the body's natural collagen production and improve overall skin appearance and connective health.
