Collagen Peptides for Skin and Joints 343 g (12 oz)

Dreaming of healthy, radiant skin and functioning joints? Meet Collagen Peptides for Skin and Joints 343 g (12 oz) from Life Extension! Collagen is a key protein, accounting for approximately one-third of the total protein mass in the body. Unfortunately, as we age, its production declines and dietary collagen can be difficult to absorb due to its large molecule and complex structure. This supplement contains hydrolysed collagen, also known as collagen peptides, which is easier to digest, not requiring breakdown into smaller fragments. An additional advantage of this supplement is the combination of three different types of collagen. What's more, its tasteless powder dissolves well in water or your favourite beverages, making daily collagen supplementation easier and more enjoyable.

Let's take a closer look at how these types of collagen work to understand how they affect our health and wellbeing.
Type I - is responsible for more than 90% of the bone mass and 80% of the skin in your body. It can also be found in tendons and ligaments.
Type II - accounts for around 80% of cartilage. In addition to the connective tissue that protects your bones and joints, type II collagen is found in the spine and in the vitreous body of the eye, which fills the space between the lens and retina.
Type III - covers about 15% of the skin's surface and is present in the tissues of important organs such as the lungs, liver and spleen.

Healthy, beautiful skin and functioning joints - sounds tempting? Turn these dreams into reality with collagen peptides from Life Extension!
