Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body. It's the structural protein that holds skin together, gives joints flexibility, lines blood vessels and forms the matrix of bones and teeth. From your late 20s, your body produces less of it each year. By your 40s, the visible effects (skin elasticity, hair thickness, joint comfort) have usually shown up.
Eating collagen rich food (bone broth, fish skin, slow cooked meats) helps, but the collagen molecules in food are too large to absorb whole. They need to be broken down first. Hydrolysed collagen is collagen that's already been broken into small peptides, which is why hydrolysation is the word to look for on any collagen supplement label.
Marine collagen comes from fish. The peptides are smaller than bovine collagen and absorb faster, with a profile closer to human collagen. Particularly rich in glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, the three amino acids your body uses most to build skin and joint collagen.
Daily Greens+ uses Type I and III hydrolysed marine collagen at 200mg per serving, paired with 100mcg of biotin (200% NRV) in the same gummy. The protein plus its cofactor. Inside the Marine Collagen gummy, which is one of six in your daily GUUDIES mini pouch.
