No sweeteners. 10 g of Bovine Collagen Peptides (Peptan®) per serving With a plus of Vitamin C: 120 mg (150% NRV) per serving With a plus of Glycine and Lysine With anti-doping certificate from Informed-Sport Easy Dissolution and Optimal Digestibility Neutral flavor. No sweeteners. No allergens. Collagen RAW is an innovative formula based on the highest quality hydrolyzed bovine collagen type I, Peptan® brand, which also combines key active ingredients such as vitamin C and the amino acids glycine and lysine. With no added flavorings or sweeteners, it can be consumed directly dissolved in water due to its high solubility. Although its neutral flavor allows for a pleasant intake and is easily combined with other foods such as juices, milk, yogurt, cereals, coffee, etc. What is Collagen? Collagen is a structural protein of animal origin and is very important biologically as it is widely present in connective tissue, that is, the tissues that make up tendons, ligaments, articular cartilage, muscle, skin, and bone. Its function, among others, is to hold these tissues together, ensuring their integrity, elasticity, and regeneration. Collagen is so important that it represents almost 30% of all body proteins. This large percentage is actually divided into different types of collagen, of which the most abundant is type I, which is the one primarily provided by this product. Collagen, much more than a simple source of protein... Collagen, like all proteins, is made up of amino acids and we might think that it is nothing more than that, just another source of protein and that ultimately it only provides amino acids and yes, in a way, it is, but the importance and/or difference between the different types of proteins (Whey, egg, soy, collagen, etc.) is marked by the proportion of the different amino acids and that is where collagen is unique, since it contains a high percentage of 3 key amino acids, glycine, proline and hydroxyproline (approx. 45% of the aminogram), moreover, hydroxyproline is only found in collagen. What is hydrolyzed collagen or collagen peptides? It's not enough to just take any collagen; it's essential that it be hydrolyzed (not native collagen or gelatin). This means that it's in the form of peptides (small proteins) to achieve high solubility, absorption, and digestibility due to its low molecular weight (Watanabe-Kamiyama, M. et al., JAFC. 2010). These small peptides are obtained solely by controlled (non-aggressive) enzymatic hydrolysis, thus transforming an insoluble native protein, and therefore unabsorbable and indigestible, into a bioactive "protein" of unique composition. Effects of Peptan® collagen peptides on health There are multiple health benefits of collagen peptides, such as healthy aging, beauty and skin care, and, of course, joint, bone and musculoskeletal health, which is what interests us most in sports. High-intensity sports can cause fissures and tears in musculoskeletal tissues (tendons, ligaments, cartilage, bones), which can lead to a high risk of injury. The daily intake of these peptides, with specific amino acids such as hydroxyproline, acts as "messengers" to promote and facilitate the endogenous production of collagen fibers in the body, helping to strengthen connective tissue and, probably, reduce injuries (Jiang, JX et al., AFIHT. 2014). Furthermore, it has been shown that they could help in cartilage regeneration (chondroregenerative) and have an anti-inflammatory effect (Dar, QA et al., OC. 2016). If we talk about beauty, that is, skin care, it is clear that there are factors that influence to a greater or lesser degree, such as, for example, age, lifestyle, pollution, diet and exposure to sunlight, this being a very important factor to take into account for all those who practice sports or outdoor disciplines. For them, Peptan® collagen can offer them an extra because its continued intake has...
