What is collagen? Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies and plays an important role in strengthening connective tissues. The word collagen derives from the Greek word for glue, Kólla, describing how it holds everything together. Collagen is mainly found in the skin, bones, tendons and other connective tissues. As we age, our ability to produce collagen diminishes – one of the reasons our skin starts to develop wrinkles is due to a lack of collagen! Why choose Healthspan’s Marine Collagen? We’ve made our tablets only from hydrolysed marine collagen that is easily absorbed in our bodies. This form of collagen also provides high levels of amino acids such as glycine, proline and leucine. Even better, we’ve added vitamin C to assist collagen formation in our bodies and help keep your skin, bones and cartilage in the best possible condition, playing a role in the smooth working of joints. Made in the UK. *Contains vitamin C which contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin, bones and cartilage.
