The amino acids and peptides found in collagen form the structure of your hair, skin, nails, joints, cartilage and bones. As you age collagen production slows down which can affect your skin health and vibrancy and also the functioning of your bones and joints. Therefore, supplementation is advisable. Marine collagen in particular is favoured due to its higher rate of absorption by the body due to possessing a smaller particle size than other forms of collagen. Platinum Series Marine Collagen provides superior Type I Hydrolysed Marine Collagen peptides which are highly bioavailable. We do not use farmed or ageing fish fed with hormones, steroids or antibiotics. Vitamins C and E contribute to the normal function of the skin, Copper and Zinc contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal hair and Iodine contributes to the maintenance of normal skin.
