PEPTAN COLLAGEN: ABSORPTION AND EFFECTIVENESS BACKED BY SCIENCE

This is how Peptan collagen works: The most absorbed hydrolyzed collagen peptide, 100% natural and scientifically backed.

Collagen is a protein present in our skin, joints, tendons, ligaments… it is essential for our health as it is the most abundant protein in the human body. Focusing on the skin, collagen makes our skin more elastic and firm.

The problem arises when we lose collagen year after year as a natural part of aging. Collagen is synthesized by fibroblasts in the dermis. A collagen deficit causes this synthesis work to decrease, resulting in skin that is more flaccid and less firm, leading to wrinkles.

BENEFITS OF PEPTAN FOR THE SKIN

To combat this problem, we have Peptan®, hydrolyzed collagen peptides that have been shown to stimulate collagen synthesis in the skin, improving its firmness, elasticity, and radiance. Clinical studies* reveal that Peptan® increases collagen density in the skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles for a younger and healthier appearance.

Furthermore, these clinical trials determine that hydrolyzed collagen Peptan® has high bioavailability, meaning 90% of the collagen is digested and becomes part of the connective tissue in just 4 hours.

In other words, it is a highly effective supplement, as most of it becomes part of the skin, which is why results are visible in less time.

HOW PEPTAN RESTRUCTURES THE DEEP LAYERS OF THE SKIN

Clinical research quantifies the anti-aging benefits of Peptan® in terms of decreasing collagen fragmentation in the deep skin layer as follows:

• -18% after 4 weeks
• -31% after 12 weeks of intake.

Other important data extracted for skin health are:

• + 9% collagen density in the dermis after 4 weeks of intake.
• + 28% in terms of hydration, counteracting the appearance of dry skin that usually occurs with aging.

“Ex vivo studies demonstrated the anti-aging effects of Peptan from a mechanical standpoint, with key findings including Peptan's positive impact on the ability of skin cells (fibroblasts) to produce collagen fibers and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), such as moisture-trapping hyaluronic acid.” Source Peptan
