I chose to add fish once a week to my vegetarian diet a couple of years ago because deficiencies in my protein intake had reduced my lean body mass, muscle strength, and function. At 42 years old, people were noticing the decline in my physical appearance. (And frankly, so was I!) Yeah, I know, having a little bit of fish now officially disqualifies me as a vegetarian but then, when I also found that my insufficient consumption of protein was the cause of my muscle cramping, weakness, and prolonged muscle soreness during and after my training sessions, I was extremely stressed out (mentally and...

Beautiful skin on the outside needs a healthy foundation on the inside. A growing body of research has shown how certain nutrients, and in particular collagen peptides, can significantly improve skin and promote beauty from within. Collagen is the main protein of connective tissue in animals and the most abundant protein in mammals. Along with soft keratin, it is responsible for skin strength and elasticity, and its degradation leads to wrinkles that accompany ageing. Collagenx hydrolysed collagen powder contains 18 amino acids, the building blocks of our tissues and the primary component of proteins. Glycine, proline and hydroxyproline represent around 50% of...

The efficacy of collagen peptides in supporting joint health is supported by an extensive body of scientific studies. Safe and natural, collagen peptides are the body’s own building blocks for cartilage, and an ideal health supplement not only for the older generation but also those who frequently engage in repetitive sports such as running or cycling. 'Collagenx' collagen peptides offer unique and well demonstrated benefits and are increasingly used as the key active ingredient in successful joint health product formulations.    CollagenX hydrolysed collagen contains 18 amino acids, the building blocks of our tissues and the primary component of proteins. Glycine, proline and...

Today’s active agers look for functional foods that taste great, convenient and easy to consume. 'Collagenx', in partnership with Peptan, embraces this demand, and its exceptional organoleptic and functional properties make it easy to integrate into senior diet.   Collagenx hydrolysed collagen contains 18 amino acids, the building blocks of our tissues and the primary component of proteins. Glycine, proline and hydroxyproline represent around 50% of Collagenx hydrolysed collagen total amino acid content; the glycine and proline concentration in our hydrolysed collagen is 10 to 20 times higher than in other proteins. As a result, Collagenx hydrolysed collagen powder offers health benefits that cannot be found in...
