Hydrolyzed Fish Collagen

Decreases wrinkles, improves skin elasticity, thickens skin, promotes a glowing complexion.

Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies that contribute to the make up of our skin, tendons, ligaments, and muscles.

While collagen is a major component of our skin, consumption has been thought to improve skin health.  As we grow older our bodies produce less collagen, leading to wrinkles and dry skin, however, with the consumption of collagen we may be able to strengthen our skin, hydrate it and improve elasticity.

Additionally, our bones are made up of mostly collagen, which give them their structure and strength.  As our collagen production decreases when we grow older, our bones may break down, leading to osteoporosis.  Collagen intake may help inhibit osteoporosis with age.
