WHAT IS COLLAGEN?

Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body (represents 30% of your body's total protein). To understand its functions and importance:

Do you remember the famous Lego game? They were colored blocks with which you could build any structure you wanted. That's exactly what collagen does in your body: form structures.

Collagen It is part of such important tissues as skin, muscle, bones, tendons, veins, intestinal lining, ligaments and other organs..

In the case of skin, collagen represents 70% of its composition. (dry). And what's more, Elastin and hyaluronic acid are formed from collagen., important to maintain the elasticity and hydration of the skin.

WHAT IS COLLAGEN MADE OF?

Collagen is made up of 'Lego pieces' of different colors, but the most abundant are three of them: proline, glycine, and hydroxyproline. These three 'pieces' are called peptides, which are the building blocks of proteins.

If you ingest collagen peptides, they travel throughout your body, stimulating very special cells called fibroblasts. These fibroblasts produce collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. This is why your skin rejuvenates when you consume them.

WHY SHOULD I TAKE COLLAGEN?

Because with age, production of collagen by your body decreases, but also the existing collagen breaks down more quickly, and its quality worsens.

How do you know if you need collagen? Pay attention to whether you show these symptoms or signs:

- Wrinkles and/or sagging skin
- Sunken or dark-circled, tired-looking eyes
- Muscle and joint pain (especially knees) and decreased flexibility or mobility
- Gastrointestinal problems
- Circulation problems

Depending on the type of skin and habits, The maximum amount of collagen in the skin occurs between the ages of 20 and 30, after which it begins to decrease.

Collagen synthesis decreases by 1 to 1.5% each year with age, which is why the first expression lines begin to appear. During menopause, this loss is much more abrupt, and can be up to double per year.

Furthermore, the consumption of processed foods, smoking, and sun exposure are the main causes of collagen deficiency.

WHAT OPTIONS DO WE HAVE TO INCORPORATE COLLAGEN?

First, consider its size:

Collagen is a protein, which, as we mentioned earlier, is made up of molecules called peptides. The size of these substances is measured by molecular weight, in Daltons.

In the case of the collagen, Its size is 300 thousand Daltons (Da)! Is so big which is why it remains intact and cannot be absorbed in the intestine.

We should opt for sizes of 6 thousand Da or smaller so that they can pass through our intestine and be assimilated!!

If we choose smaller molecules, can be easily absorbed. This is the case with peptides. Peptides form proteins, and these in turn are formed by amino acids.

To stimulate collagen synthesis in your body, you need to incorporate it in the form of peptides, and the smaller they are, the better.

Forget about eating foods rich in collagen; the ideal is to consume the peptides that make up collagen, so your body can synthesize it.

In the case of collagen, almost 50% of the peptides that make up collagen are proline, glycine, and hydroxyproline. These peptides are the three colored building blocks we mentioned at the beginning. The other 50% is made up of almost 20 amino acids.

That's why, You should incorporate supplements that respect this proportion of molecules necessary to stimulate collagen synthesis, and that are as small as possible.

In addition, collagen has a triple helix shape, consisting of these chains. For this structure to form correctly helical, You also need to consume it with vitamin C.

This is why the Beauty Creamer It is formulated with acerola extract, rich in vitamin C!!

WHY CHOOSE THE BEAUTY CREAMER AS A SOURCE OF COLLAGEN?

By its composition: not only Contains all the amino acids necessary to form the collagen chains and helix, but It respects the 50% proportionality of proline, glycine and hydroxyproline peptides (the 3 colour blocks). This ensures the right amount of raw material to stimulate collagen synthesis in your body.

It's a patent (Peptan), a world market leader. Having a patent on your supplements increases their reliability and effectiveness. A scientifically proven patent guarantees optimal quality standards and clinical effectiveness. You're not just choosing a 'one-stop shop' product. mark', but it goes much further: in addition to being a quality product, it is a functional product.
For his minimum molecular weight. Peptan collagen peptides have a very low molecular weight. We're talking about only 2000 Da. Being well below 6000 Da, we achieve optimal absorption and digestion. We talk about numbers as high as 90%, so It is worth investing a little more, knowing that you will achieve a sufficient and functional dose.
It is formulated with vitamin C (acerola extract). As we have mentioned, vitamin C is essential for the correct metabolism of collagen. It allows its release, and activates genes in the skin and other tissues necessary for your cells to produce it.

The longer you take it, the better the results: Peptan has been shown to reduce skin wrinkles by nearly 26% and improve hydration by 28% in 12 weeks.

Other advantages:

Its neutral taste and smell, resistance to heat and pH, and high solubility.
Beauty Creamer It is an effective product, natural, convenient and pleasant to consume.
You can add it to your drinks, hot or cold, and enjoy its flavor.

But also, If you like to train or have digestive problems, collagen has:

Sports effects: Vitamin C stimulates collagen production, accelerating bone regeneration in the case of fractures.
It's also useful for post-exercise recovery. You can combine it with any of our proteins: Pure Protein Whey Isolate or Pure Vegan.
Digestive effects: Peptan has also been shown to reduce symptoms such as bloating and pain. It improved constipation in up to 94% of cases! You can combine it with our Microbiotic Creamer.

Now you know how to choose a good collagen and make the most of its properties.

Beauty Creamer It is a product with bioactive principles that meet the highest standards of quality and clinical efficacy, but also have ingredients naturalis that they provide optimal flavor and texture, without adding unnecessary sweeteners or excipients.

All so you can enjoy a delicious drink while its ingredients take care of your skin's health.
