What is collagen?
Collagen is a protein found naturally in our skin, bone, and connective tissues. Collagen is a supportive and restorative material in the body, helping with the structural integrity of our bones and the elasticity of our skin. Collagen also acts as a protective barrier on various internal organs.
As we age, our collagen levels naturally decrease. With less collagen present, the integrity of the skin begins to deteriorate, creating wrinkles and causing the skin to become thinner. Bone strength is also reduced, and joints lose some of their cartilage paddings.
Consuming a diet high in sugar, smoking, and getting a high amount of UV exposure are contributing factors to increased collagen damage. To prevent excessive loss of collagen, many people turn to supplemental options.
What is marine collagen?
Marine collagen is derived from the skin and bones of ocean fish. Collagen molecules are quite large and tough in nature, so in a process called hydrolysation, the collagen molecules are partially broken down to make it easier for digestion and absorption. Then, it is made into the powdered supplement we know.
ANC marine collagen is a sustainably sourced product. Once the collagen has been removed from the fish for our products, the remainder of the fish is tested for quality and then used for food products. It truly is a zero-waste product!
