- Collagen peptides are rich in hydroxyproline and Type I and Type III collagen.
Benefits
Nutritional protein supplement: Adequate protein is necessary for normal growth and development, and contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass. A protein rich diet may decrease hunger. Adequate protein intake supports satiety via suppressing plasma ghrelin, stimulating cholecystokinin (CCK) secretion and enhancing the effect of leptin.
Wound healing: Collagens act as a foundation for the intracellular matrix formation in wound healing, providing integrity and strength to tissue, especially during the proliferative and remodeling phases of repair. Collagen peptides contain the branched chain amino acids – valine, leucine and isoleucine, helping to delay physical fatigue.
The collagen peptides in BioPure Collagen Protein are derived from a bovine source and have a neutral odour and flavour. They have excellent solubility and dispensability, perfect for mixing into liquids - hot or cold.
99% Type 1 Collagen with traces of Type 2 Collagen
