Collagen Beauty Powder, 300g. (Nutridom)

1. What is collagen?
   Collagen comes from the Greek word for “production of glue. ”Collagen is the main structural protein of various connective tissues and body parts in animals and humans. These include key organs including eye lens, artery walls, bone and intestine. Collagen is protein chains bound in a tight triple helix, and has a great tensile strength. An exact molecular structure of collagen has been searched for by renowned scientists for a very long time. Total of 28 types of collagen have been identified and described so far, each expressed by unique gene, and each playing important role in our body. 

   Examples of collagen types are:

   – Type I: most abundant collagen in the body. It is found in: skin, tendon, vascular ligature, organs, bone, teeth, artery walls and many more.
   – Type II: makes up for 50% of all cartilage protein. Also found in space between lens and retina of eye.
   – Type III: tissue that form on the wound surface. Also found in artery wall, skins, intestine and uterus.
   – Type IV: found in eye lens, capillaries and nephron in kidney.

   Collagen gives structure to key organs including eye lens, artery wall, bone and intestine. Genetic defect or mutation of collagen leads to many adverse medical conditions. These include osteogenesis caused by collagen type I resulting in weak bone

   Collagen type I and II
   Type I collagen is the most abundant collagen in the body. It is found in skin, tendon, vascular ligature, organs, bone, teeth, artery walls and much more. Our bone and tendon are comprised of 98% type I collagen, and our skin is comprised of approximately 70-80% type I collagen. Type II collagen makes up for 50% of all cartilage protein and is also found in space between lens and retina of the eye.
   Type I collagen supplementation is usually intended to maintain skin health and fight against visible signs of aging. Type II collagen supplementation is usually for joint pain relief.

   Nutridom beauty collagen for your skin:

Nutridom beauty collagen provides highly bioavailable and soluble type I bovine collagen peptide with 18 different amino acids profile. It is clinically proven, gluten-free, kosher certified and NON-GMO.
Collagen peptides are small bioactive peptides obtained by breaking down collagen protein to a molecular weight of around 5,000da from collagen protein 300-400kda in size. This hydrolysis makes collagen much more bioactive, easily digestible and ready to be absorbed by the body.
