What Makes Pure Collagen+ Unique?

Signs of aging can mean changes in hair, skin, bones and joints. Age however is not the only contributing factor. A diet lacking in diverse protein sources or missing some important antioxidant co-factors can additionally limit our metabolic potential. Our bodies depend on their natural collagen production to maintain skin elasticity and provide structural support in our connective tissue and muscles and joints. As we age, the production of this vital protein begins to slow down, supplementing with collagen may help this issue. Pure Collagen+ offers a comprehensive grass-fed bovine collagen formula, hydrolyzed into small bioactive peptides that support healthy collagen production and maintenance throughout the body.

Often referred to as a “complex protein,” collagen contains a plethora of different amino acids, including hydroxyproline, which is found everywhere in the body, making it a particularly important component of our diet and often supplementation. Studies show that collagen is one of the most plentiful proteins in mammals as it is responsible for several biological functions. Because collagen is a unique type of protein accounting for as much as 30% of the body’s total protein, it is an essential component of our dietary regimen. Pure Collagen+ is especially unique because it offers 10 grams of hydrolyzed grass-fed bovine collagen which includes not just Type I collagen but also type III which is missing from collagens exclusively from marine sources.

Antioxidants are known for their ability to help quench free radicals, thus promoting the performance of your body’s collagen to work most optimally. While most collagen is hard to assimilate into tissues, hydrolyzed collagen has a higher potential for absorption when pairing it with cofactors like vitamin C, vitamin E and biotin. The combination of specific nutrients may allow your body to generate its own collagen naturally while also supporting the utilization of collagen peptides. Pure Collagen+ is formulated with bamboo stem extract (with 70% silica), acerola, Vitamin C and Vitamin E; each providing antioxidant support and helping to promote the healthy development of collagen. Specifically, Vitamin C is an essential vitamin the body requires for collagen production and has shown to aid in the production of collagen in young and older adults. The additional support of the added ingredient of Biotin, which may be obtained through food or supplementation, naturally aids the body’s keratin production, which acts like collagen in the way that they both support the structural fibers (structural proteins) of the body’s connective tissues.1, 2, 4

It is often assumed that collagen supplements can only benefit women versus men due to their association with beauty products, especially those offering lifting and firming benefits. While it is true that collagen is a great skin health supplement, this does not limit it to a specific gender; collagen’s powerful skin, bone and joint benefits are essential to both women and men’s health. As a matter of fact, studies show that daily use of collagen supplementation may help maintain muscle strength, an important benefit to everyone.

Selecting the right collagen can be difficult with such a large selection available in the market and there is a lot one should keep in mind when making their selection, such as the source of the collagen or if it is non-GMO. Pure Collagen+ is sourced from non-GMO animal-derived grass-fed bovine collagen, so you can ensure the collagen is natural in form; collagen sourced from animals has shown to be more beneficial than eating plant-based foods that solely work to promote collagen synthesis within the body. 3 Pure Collagen+ comes in a convenient flavorless powder, making it perfect for adding to water, coffee, smoothies or your favorite beverage. For optimal results, it is suggested to consume 1 serving daily.*
