Collagen forms the building blocks for almost all your body, from bones and connective tissues to muscles and skin. In fact, collagen represents about 30% of the protein in your body, making it a pretty fundamental part of your whole makeup. Get head-to-toe support with Swanson Unflavored Collagen Peptides, delivering a potent 20 grams per scoop.
Sourced from grass-fed and pasture-raised cows, this convenient and easily absorbed powder provides collagen type I for total-body benefits. Collagen type I—which accounts for approximately 90% of the collagen in your body—is made up of densely packed fibers that support connective tissue structure. As we age, our bodies’ natural production of collagen slows. This decrease in collagen density in the skin and in the structural proteins that are critical to joint strength are primary culprits of aging. Adding collagen to your wellness routine helps to maintain the integrity of tendons and ligaments for comfortable movement and can promote skin that looks and feels youthful.
Research indicates that collagen may improve the tone and texture of the skin and lessen the appearance of wrinkles.1 Studies also suggest that the combination of supplemental collagen and exercise promotes your body’s capacity for bearing weight.2 Best results are seen with consistent, continued use. Make it part of your everyday by adding it to your coffee, smoothie or soup! Our unflavored collagen powder is a versatile option to complement your daily regimen for healthy aging support.
We deliver 20 grams of collagen peptides per serving, but what are collagen peptides? They are a “hydrolyzed”—that is, broken down into smaller pieces—form of collagen that is absorbed more easily into the body for easier assimilation and use. So if you’ve ever wondered about the difference between hydrolyzed collagen and collagen peptides, they are effectively the same thing: the process of hydrolyzing collagen creates collagen peptides.
