Maximum bioavailability, 98% digestibility

Not all collagen powders are the same. The bioactive collagen peptides we use are obtained via a specific hydrolysation process which produces the peptide sequences required to target specific tissues and functions, as proven by clinical studies. This collagen has been formulated for firmer, more elastic and younger looking skin (less wrinkles and fine lines). While our hair and nails are made from keratin, not collagen, our hair follicles and nail beds grow from our skin which is why collagen also improves the strength and thickness of hair and nails.

The Anti-ageing Power of Collagen.

What's collagen?

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body.

Collagen is essentially a structure of amino acids that makes up a type of protein. It’s made up of primarily proline, hydroxyproline, and glycine. These are amino acids that make up 75% of our skin, 95% of the organic compounds of our bones, and over 90% of our gut lining, digestive tract, ligaments, tendons, connective tissue and fascia.

Why do we need more of it?

As we age, our collagen production reduces, by 2% per year.

Think of your skin like a sponge, if it's holding water it's full and elastic. As we age, less collagen means that sponge holds less water which makes it less full and less elastic. Most people are getting next to no collagen in their diet because the biggest sources of collagen are things we no longer eat a lot of (e.g. bone broth and fish skin). Supplementing with collagen is easy because it comes as an odourless, tasteless, white powder.

How does eating collagen help?

Consuming collagen provides the building blocks our bodies need.

Collagen has been scientifically proven to replenish our bodies' own collagen which means firmer, more elastic and younger looking skin (less wrinkles and fine lines). While our hair and nails are made from keratin, not collagen, they grow from our hair follicles and nail beds which are made of skin which is why collagen also improves the strength and thickness of hair and nails.

What's the best way to boost collagen?

The best way to boost our collagen levels is by eating it.

There are lots of wonderful skin creams, oils and topical treatments but best way to improve our natural beauty is to boost our collagen by eating it. Hydrolysed collagen peptides are the most bio available form of collagen which means our bodies can use it.

About our unique formulation.

Vitamin C is a co-factor for absorption of collagen.

Hyaluronic Acid aids in maintaining moisture in the skin so as to reduce the appearance of fine lines.

Resveratrol is a powerful antioxidant known for its anti-aging properties, protects the skin from environmental factors such as UV radiation and stress.

Zinc is an essential mineral that may reduce inflammation and irritation of the skin, can decrease acne and the signs of ageing.

Silica is a key cofactor for collagen synthesis as it enables collagen production within skin cells. It also gives a radiant glow to the skin as it oxygenates the blood.

FAQ

How is Beauty Food collagen different?

It's all about bioavailability and clinical studies. The collagen we use is one of the only collagens backed up by it's own clinical research, not general research about "collagen".

How should I take it?

Blend one rounded teaspoon (one 5g serve) into 240ml of water or beverage of your choice. If substituting for water, we recommend smoothies, shakes or unsweetened yoghurt. Marine collagen is heat stable and great to add to your daily tea or coffee. We do not recommend fruit juice as it is high in sugar, which can inhibit the absorption of collagen.

Most people get next to no collagen in their diet because the biggest sources of collagen are things we no longer eat a lot of (e.g. bone broth, fish stock). If your diet is low in these types of food we recommend beginning your collagen supplementation with a 30 day loading protocol.

Loading protocol
2 serves per day

Maintenance protocol
1 serve per day

You may choose to replace a serving of collagen powder with a Beauty Food collagen cookie.

Where does the collagen come from?

Our collagen comes from Germany.

Is Beauty Food collagen safe for pregnancy?

If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, please check with your health care professional before using this product. Collagen is a great thing to have in your diet through this time, but this formulation should be considered in context of any other vitamin supplements you may be taking.
