Peptan® collagen peptides

General

Peptan® collagen peptides are Type I Collagen Peptides. This means they are identical to the collagens found in human bones and skin. Peptan® is a high-purity, natural bioactive product, containing more than 97% protein (on a dry weight basis). The Peptan® collagen peptides are available in three raw material origins (fish (F), bovine (B) and porcine (P)). Peptan® B and F are Kosher- and Halal-certified.

Peptan® collagen peptides are optimized for high bioavailability and activity, and their hydrolyzed form makes them easily digestible by humans and shows excellent absorption. More than 90% of Peptan® is digested and available as small peptides in the blood stream within one hour. It is a bioactive ingredient that has been specifically developed to deliver multiple health benefits and functional properties.

Peptans® unique amino acid composition

Peptan® contains 18 amino acids, the building blocks of our tissues and the primary component of proteins. Glycine, proline and hydroxyproline represent around 50% of Peptans® total amino acid content; the glycine and proline concentration in Peptan® is 10 to 20 times higher than in other proteins. As a result, Peptan® offers health benefits that cannot be found in other protein sources.

Backed by science

Peptan® collagen peptides deliver multiple health benefits and display unique bioactive properties in body tissues. Investing in scientific evidence and clinical studies is necessary, and scientific studies are continuously performed, including in-vitro, in-vivo and clinical research to further substantiate Peptans® health benefits and broaden its application potential.

Proven health benefits of Peptan®:

• Joint health: the efficacy of Peptan® for improving joint function and reducing discomfort is backed by scientific studies including in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials.

• Bone health: when taken as a supplement, collagen peptides can support healthy and strong bones, as shown in multiple in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials. Peptan® can ideally be combined with calcium and vitamin D to offer optimal bone health benefits.

• Muscle health: sarcopenia is the age-related loss of muscle mass and function. Exercise and adequate intake of easily digestible protein is vital to counteracting the condition's effects. As a bioactive protein, Peptan® can help maintain lean body mass in older adults.

• Skin health & skin beauty: beautiful skin on the outside needs a healthy foundation on the inside and collagen peptides, can significantly improve skin. Also referred to as ‘Beauty from Within’ solutions, nutricosmetics are nutritional supplements support the skin from the inside.
