Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides

Tangible benefits of our hydrolyzed collagen peptides may include: Increased epidermal hydration Increased epidermal elasticity Increased dermal density Collagen is the most ubiquitous protein found in the body with approximately 28 types, making up at least 25% of total protein. Type I comprises over 90% of all collagenous tissue found in the skin, tendons, organs, vasculature, and bones. Type II collagen is found in hyaline cartilage. Vella Health grass-fed hydrolyzed collagen peptides is predominantly of Type I.Collagen plays a structural role in tissues’ mechanical properties such as tensile strength as well as molecular architecture. Naturally synthesized in animal life, collagenous tissue mineralization ranges from rigid structures such as bones to compliant structures such as tendons.As such in all proteins, like whey, collagen is a nitrogen-containing compound with glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline primarily making up the amino acid profile necessary for triple helical polyp
