Collagen - natural food supplement
Collagen - natural food supplement
Collagen supplements (collagen peptides) contribute structure to the body's tissues and cells. Dear child, collagen supplements are often called a variety of things: clean collagen, clean collagen, collagen, collagen peptides, collagen peptides, marine collagen, bovine collagen, collagen supplement, collagen supplement, collagen, natural collagen, hydrolyzed collagen, hydrolyzed collagen peptides.
Collagen supplements containing collagen peptides and vitamin C contribute to normal collagen formation for normal function of cartilage, blood vessels, bones, gums and teeth. Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of the skin. Food supplements with collagen also contribute to strong hair, healthy nails, wrinkle-free skin, and less visible cellulite.

What is the difference between vegan collagen and animal collagen?
Natural collagen ALWAYS comes from animals, and is thus natural. Vegan collagen is manufactured by humans in a laboratory and is thus not a natural collagen.
Can collagen be naturally vegan?
Yes, there is vegan collagen, but it is not natural collagen. Natural collagen always comes from the animal kingdom. This lab-made vegan collagen also does not look exactly like natural collagen that comes from animals.
What is vegan collagen?
Vegan collagen produced in a laboratory has the same amino acids as natural animal collagen. However, the raw material for the different collagen variants differs. Natural collagen is made from animals and vegan collagen is made from bacteria, yeast, plants/plants and from animal cell biopsies.

Why is collagen important for the body?
Collagen is important for many of the body's tissues, organs and functions:
-
Cartilage - about 60% of the body's cartilage is made of collagen type 2
-
The tendons – nearly 100% of the body's tendons are made of collagen types 1 and 3
-
The ligaments – about 86% of the body's ligaments are made of collagen types 1 and 3
-
The skin - about 70% of the skin consists of collagen, mainly of type 1 and type 3
-
The hair
-
The nails
-
The teeth and gums
-
Optimal stomach and intestinal function
-
The blood vessels – and indirectly the appearance of varicose veins and varicose veins
-
The muscle tissue
-
Important for the skeleton
How do you know if you have a collagen deficiency?
A lack of collagen is mainly noticeable by pain in the joints, stiffness, dull and wrinkled skin, brittle hair and problems with the stomach and intestines, as well as dry and brittle nails that fall off easily. A deficiency can be due to incorrect diet, stress, alcohol consumption, smoking and simply through aging - when the body's own production of collagen begins to decrease after the age of 25.
Why is vitamin C important for collagen formation?
The most important function of the vitamin in the body is actually to contribute to the formation of collagen.
Vitamin C, on the other hand, has many other different and important functions in the body and is also called ascorbic acid. Vitamin C has 15 approved health claims when it comes to its function in the body, of which 6 apply to its important role in the formation of collagen.
Is it good to take extra collagen from food supplements after the age of 25?
Yes, a dietary supplement with collagen is good. After the age of 25, the body's own production of collagen decreases, and at the age of 40, the body's production has decreased by approximately 25%, and when you reach the age of 60, the body's own production has decreased by as much as 50%!
This reduction can be prevented by supplying the body with at least 10 grams of collagen per day via a dietary supplement.
What are collagen peptides?
Collagen peptides is another word for hydrolyzed collagen, which means that the collagen has been broken down into smaller units that are easier for our bodies to absorb.
Which dietary supplement with collagen peptides is best?
Celloptimum's CLEAN LABEL COLLAGEN PEPTIDES with collagen peptides and extra added vitamin C is a pure collagen powder without unnecessary additives.
What is the function of collagen/collagen in the body, and what benefits does it have for me?
Collagen contributes structure to the body's tissues and cells.
Below you will find some examples of collagen's benefits:
-
Beautiful and healthy skin, with less wrinkles and increased elasticity
-
Shiny, thick and healthy hair
-
Strong and beautiful nails
-
Getting rid of cellulite
-
Healthy, strong and mobile joints
-
Optimal stomach and intestinal function
-
Healthy teeth and healthy gums
-
A strong skeleton
-
Healthy and strong blood vessels (arteries and veins) that counteract varicose veins and varicose veins
-
Increased muscle mass during exercise
-
Weight loss
-
Improved scar and wound healing
It is simply that without collagen you would more or less collapse!
What are the benefits of hydrolyzed collagen in powder form vs. in tablet form?
In order for you to get the amount of hydrolyzed collagen that has an effective effect on the body and benefit from the collagen's benefits, you need to add about 10 grams of hydrolyzed collagen powder a day. If you were to take it in capsule or tablet form, that would mean about 20 tablets a day!
When you take hydrolyzed collagen in powder form, you avoid adding unnecessary substances to the body that are in the capsule or tablet. We only sell CLEAN LABEL collagen, which means collagen completely without unnecessary additives or other ingredients that do not add any benefit to you.
In the production of capsules or tablets, magnesium stearate is also often used as a lubricant in the machines, an ingredient that does not add any benefit to your body.
The advantage of powder is also not having to swallow large capsules or tablets, which can be difficult for some people!
Does collagen occur in a regular traditional diet?
We would probably like to answer no to that question.
Collagen is mainly found in supporting tissue (connective tissue) such as bones, skin, tendons, cartilage, ligaments, arteries, bone marrow, spleen, lymph nodes, intervertebral discs and the eye, in mammals. These are parts of the animal that are not usually included in a normal traditional diet.
How does the body get access to collagen if it does not occur in ordinary food?
The body produces its own collagen, but the body's own production gradually declines after the age of 25.
Therefore, it can be good to add extra collagen to the body as you get older, in order to maintain a fresh, healthy and functional body.
Why is vitamin C important for collagen synthesis?
Vitamin C is important for the activation of two key enzymes, which are needed for collagen synthesis, which begins inside the cell.
Without vitamin C (and also iron), the function of the enzymes is deactivated, and collagen cannot be formed.
Why is silicon important for collagen synthesis?
Silicon is important for optimal collagen synthesis and activation of hydroxylating enzymes, which improve the skin's strength and elasticity.
Our product COLLAGEN - SKIN & HAIR COMPLEX™ contains organic silicon from bamboo!
Why is it good to take a dietary supplement with collagen peptides and what are the benefits for me?
Collagen peptides found in food supplements have an optimal absorption with high bioavailability in the blood and can be assimilated by the body.
Depending on the type of collagen it is, it contributes different benefits to the body. There are many types in the human body, and the most common types of collagen are types 1, 2 and 3, with type 1 being by far the most common type and making up about 90% of the body's collagen.
Should I stop eating hydrolyzed collagen after a certain time, and have a shorter break?
We recommend that you consume hydrolyzed collagen powder every day, without a break, for optimal results.
What are the main factors that reduce the amount of collagen in the body?
-
Aging causes less collagen to be produced
-
UV radiation from the sun (this factor contributes to approximately 80-90% of skin aging)
-
Smoking
-
A poor diet
-
An inadequate daily intake of vitamin C
-
Air pollution
-
Drugs and alcohol
-
Stress
Are the collagen peptides in Celloptimum's food supplement synthetically produced?
The collagen in celloptimum's food supplement is natural.
From what sources do collagen peptides in dietary supplements come from?
The collagen used in dietary supplements comes mainly from fish, cattle, pig/pig or chicken/chicken.
How are collagen peptides usually produced?
Collagen is hydrolyzed (a molecule is split into two parts after a water molecule is added) enzymatically into low molecular weight collagen peptides, to ensure optimal absorption in the body.
There are several different types of collagen, of which type 1, type 2 and type 3 are the most common types in the body. What animals do these collagen types come from, in supplements?
-
Fish/marine collagen: type 1
-
Cattle: type 1 and type 3
-
Chicken/hen: type 2
-
Pig/pig: type 1 and type 3
What different benefits for the body do the different types of collagen have?
-
Type 1 and 3: skin, hair, nails, muscles, tendons, ligaments, gastrointestinal tract, bones, gums, teeth and blood vessels.
-
Type 2: articular cartilage and other cartilage.
The collagen in COLLAGEN – SKIN & HAIR COMPLEX™ comes from fish, which contains type 1 collagen.
