Collagen peptide is the hydrolysed form of collagen, a fibrous protein present in the Extracellular matrix of living cells. After hydrolysis the product loses its gelling ability and makes it soluble in cold water. Collagen Peptide is also known as "Collagen Hydrolysate", "Gelatin Hydrolysate", "Hydrolysed Collagen".
It differs greatly from other proteins as it contains amino acids Glycine, Proline and Hydroxy-Proline in a concentration that is around 10-20 times higher than in other proteins. These amino acids play an important role in building fibrous tissues. An insufficient supply of these amino acids results in painful joints, brittle fingernails and hair. Many studies indicate that Collagen Peptide has a preventive and regenerative effect on bones, cartilage, and tendon etc., Collagen Peptide also contains all the essential amino acids except Tryptophan.
Benefits of using Collagen Peptide?
The amino acid composition of collagen peptide is almost similar to collagen in body. Thus Collagen Peptide is a "customized" Collagen building block.
It is a product derived from natural source raw material with no reported side effects. It does not react with drugs or other food or food ingredients.
Administration of Collagen Peptide stimulates the anabolic phase of cartilage matrix turnover. This brings about a phase of regeneration and stability in joint cartilage.
• Daily supplement of Collagen Peptide:
• Promotes cartilage health
• Improves joint flexibility and mobility in joint function
• Reduces joint pain
• Reduces the consumption of pain relievers
• Maintains joint health in active people
Collagen Peptide as a Function Food Supplement for Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a disease of the bone that leads to an increased risk of fracture. This is a condition where bone substances degenerate to such an extent that the bone density decreases and its structure becomes porous. This is most common on women after menopause. Osteoporosis reduces the capacity of the bone to fulfill their support function. The present treatments include adequate supply of Calcium to compensate mineral loss, but this is only one cause and its solution. Loss of mineral means loss of collagen also. It is believed that by administering Collagen Peptide, the building blocks required for renewing Collagen are provided and body then uses them for this purpose.
