How does it work?

Proteins are essential nutrients for our body. They are made from long chains of amino acids. Collagen peptides are proteins that are highly bioavailable. Consumption of collagen peptides will help supply your body with amino acids needed as building blocks to renew tissues such as skin, bones and joints.

It has been proposed that collagen peptides may act as a messenger to the cells and trigger the synthesis and reorganization of new collagen fibers, therefore supporting skin tissue structure.

Contra-Indications & Warnings

If you have a medical condition or are pregnant, please consult your medical doctors or healthcare professionals.
