Collagen peptide is a natural protein produced inside the body to prevent dermal layers of the skin from developing skin folds. After they are created collagen and elastin create collagen peptide bundles resulting in firmer skin and a healthier body. When collagen bundles decrease the appearance of wrinkles becomes more noticeable. Collagen is responsible for the maintenance, strength, and flexibility of healthy bones, joints, skin, tendons, ligaments, hair, nails, blood vessels, and eyes
The word collagen is derived from kolla, the Greek word for glue. Collagen is the primary protein in the body more than 90% of the total collagen found in the body is Type I&III. It is an essential and major component of muscles, tendons, cartilage, ligaments, bones, gums, teeth, eyes and blood vessels.
As we age levels of amino acids (protein building blocks) our body needs to make collagen protein are reduced so there is insufficient new collagen to keep skin, joints, and other parts of the body in optimal health. Pure Marine Collagen provides an important amino acid composition. It is a natural rejuvenating source that helps replenish the body's own collagen supply and provides nutrients to re-build collagen Type I&III cells.
Pure Marine Collagen is particularly rich in
Hydroxyproline
- A major component needed to produce collagen cells for a healthy body
Alanine
- Supplies energy to muscle tissues, brain and central nervous system and strengthens immune system through its effect on antibody production
Arginine

Glycine
- Triggers the release of the oxygen required by the cell-making process
- Key Benefits
