DOI: 10.19080/JOJCS.2018.06.555692 Purely Potent Our Original formula is made with natural marine collagen. Our Blueberry formula is made with natural marine collagen, real blueberries and natural sweetener. Activated Collagen Our marine collagen is activated through a natural hydrolysation process. So our peptides are small in weight - and high in impact. Enzymes break raw collagen down into a low-weight peptide powder (from 300,000 Daltons to as low as 2,000). It's bioavailable with an absorption rate over 90% and highly effective. Heat Stable Natural Marine Collagen is heat stable. Whether you stir into cool water or your morning coffee, it's just as effective. Sustainably Sourced Natural Marine Collagen is made from sustainably sourced fish skin. More specifically, our collagen is made using the discarded skin of both wild and responsibly farmed fish (to avoid placing too much demand on one species). Tried and Tested Every batch of marine collagen is tested for heavy metals, mercury and other contaminants. So it's not just effective, but safe.

Collagen is the second most abundant substance in the body (after water). The protein acts as a building block, giving your skin, hair, nails and joints their structure, elasticity and strength. As part of the natural ageing process, collagen production starts progressively slowing at around 25. As this happens, hair starts to grey, skin wrinkles and nails become weaker. 2. What is Natural Marine Collagen made from? Marine collagen is derived from fish skin, so it's naturally free from wheat, gluten, dairy, sugar, additives, preservatives or artificial flavours. We hydrolyse the skin, mimicking the digestion process and breaking down raw collagen into easy-to-absorb peptides. In fact, your body can absorb over 90% of our marine collagen. (The higher the absorption, the better the results.) 3. Can I take marine collagen when pregnant or breastfeeding? Pregnancy and breastfeeding aren't just massive adjustments for your body, they can be big news for your diet and beauty regime too.
