Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body. It's what your skin, hair, nails, joints, tendons and blood vessels are made of. The catch is that you stop making as much of it once you hit your late 20s, and the drop accelerates from there. By 40 most people have lost around 10 to 15% of the collagen they had at 25.
You can't really eat collagen the way you eat protein. Whole collagen molecules are too big for your gut to absorb. That's why a marine collagen supplement uses hydrolysed collagen, broken into small peptides that pass into your bloodstream and circulate to where they're needed. The marine version (sourced from fish) absorbs faster than the bovine (cow sourced) version, and the peptide profile is closer to human collagen.
The other half of the story is biotin. Vitamin B7 is the cofactor your body uses to assemble keratin and collagen from raw protein. Without enough biotin, even abundant collagen intake doesn't build as efficiently. This is why collagen and biotin go together. The protein needs the cofactor.
Our marine collagen gummy gives you 200mg of Type I and III hydrolysed peptides plus 100mcg of biotin (200% NRV). One gummy a day, alongside the other five in your daily mini pouch.
