Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides
What Are Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides?
Hydrolyzed collagen peptides are small chains of amino acids obtained by enzymatically breaking down collagen into easily digestible and highly bioavailable powder form. They are also called collagen hydrolysate or collagen peptides.
Benefits:
√ Bone health – supports density and structure
√ Hair & nails – strengthens and promotes growth
√ Muscle recovery – aids post-workout regeneration
√ Joint & cartilage support – may reduce pain and stiffness
√ Skin health – improves elasticity, hydration, and reduces wrinkles
