Collagen

Collagen makes up about 30% of the total protein in our body. Essential for keeping our bodies firm and flexible, it is found in our skin, nails, hair, and connective tissues, as well as in our bones, muscles, and blood vessels. Collagen is a protein that helps our body hold together, it is our glue, it is found throughout the body, in muscles, bones, skin and blood vessels.

Why Hydrolized?

The main difference is that hydrolyzed collagen has a better absorption in our body. Through the hydrolyzation process, the molecular size of collagen is reduced, making its absorption and assimilation easier.

In addition, the consumption of hydrolyzed collagen provides better elasticity and hydration in the skin.

Hyaluronic acid

Half of the hyaluronic acid we produce is found in our skin, this substance bound with water helps us retain moisture and keep skin healthy. The problem is that as time goes by, exposure to the sun, polluting factors, tobacco… decrease the amount of hyaluronic acid in our skin. Taking supplements or applying cosmetics formulated with HA can reduce water loss and provide the body with the additional amounts it needs.

Vitamin C

As a powerful antioxidant, vitamin C neutralizes free radicals that cause oxidative stress in the skin and lead to premature aging. It is also essential for the production of collagen in skin cells, which helps maintain the skin’s structure and slows down the signs of aging.
