Collagen: an important form of protein
Collagen is an important glue-forming protein in the body that accounts for about 30% of our total protein mass. You find it in all kinds of tissues, where it provides structure and elasticity. It also ensures the firmness and elasticity of the skin. After the age of 25, our body produces less and less collagen. This is a natural process. After our 50th year of life, our body almost does not produce this protein at all. This manifests itself in wrinkles and less firm skin. Therefore, it may be useful to supplement it.
Types of collagen
There are different types of collagen. For example, you have type 1, 2 and 3. Type 1 is the most abundant in our body with as much as 90%. That is why we also chose to include this form in our supplement. Our collagen is extracted from cattle. From the skin of these animals we extract gelatin, which we then hydrolyze. Hydrolyzing means that we make the protein molecularly smaller, making it easier to absorb.
The living conditions of our cows
Our beef collagen is from grass-fed cows from Argentina. The cattle were raised outdoors on pasture and have access to grass, air, land and water 365 days a year. The cows have eaten fresh grass throughout their lives. All of our collagen is fully traceable to the farmer and have never been administered any steroids or hormones. This makes our collagen a forerunner in the collagen market.
