Collagen Complex Powder - Vanilla
About this item
Details
Description
Collagen is the most common protein in the body, with three types making up 80 to 90% of total collagen. It helps keep skin, hair and nails looking youthful and acts as the “cellular glue” that holds together connective tissue throughout the body, including muscles, blood vessels, organs, and the digestive and immune systems.
Collagen levels naturally decline with age. By age 60, collagen levels drop to less than half of youthful levels, and by age 80, the body contains approximately four times less collagen. Supporting a vital, youthful body requires all three types of collagen, Type I, Type II and Type III. Collagen Complex Powder provides 1.5 grams of all three collagen types sourced from carefully selected ingredients, including marine collagen peptides from wild-caught deep-sea cod harvested from the North Atlantic Ocean in Norway, organic beef bone broth concentrate from grass-fed U.S. cows raised without hormones or antibiotics, and UC-II® undenatured Type II chicken collagen from chickens responsibly raised with outdoor access and fed a vegetarian, non-GMO diet.
