Collagen is a fibrous protein, characteristically present in connective structures such as skin or joint cartilage and is the main protein present in the body. It is characterised by a three-dimensional structure in the form of an interlaced triple helix.
Hydrolysed Collagen + Magnesium 2.0 is a food supplement based on Hydrolysed Bovine Collagen, with magnesium citrate and vitamin C; with delicious fruity flavours that camouflage any kind of aftertaste characteristic of hydrolysed collagen.
With Hydrolysed Collagen + Magnesium you have a product of excellent nutritional quality, with healthy flavours and no sugars, perfect for supplementing your diet with premium nutrients that are good for you.
Quality collagen. Treated with controlled hydrolysis, achieving a better taste.
Native type I collagen is not absorbed properly, so it must be pre-digested using industrial processes. This process is called hydrolysis.
Hydrolysis can be carried out by many means, the most common (but least recommended for collagen) being acid hydrolysis.
At HSN, we use enzymatic hydrolysis procedures to hydrolyse our collagen into peptides, which has resulted in a much less intense taste, as acid hydrolysis naturally generates a huge amount of salt and makes the raw material very bitter.
HSN's raw, unflavoured collagen used in the development of this product has a neutral, slightly salty taste, so it is not only of the highest quality but also enjoyable.
From cows raised under controlled stall conditions and quality of animal life guarantees.
Collagen is always obtained from animals, although it is normally marine collagen, i.e., extracted from fish scales, with the associated problems of contamination by sea bioactives.
HSN use a high-quality bovine source, from which pure and clean collagen is obtained, free of any contaminants, as not only is the bovine source free of allergens such as fish, but also, HSN choose the best options for your diet.
Low molecular weight collagen peptides. The most effective and nutritionally valued.
Hydrolysed collagen, depending on the conditions under which it is hydrolysed, releases a variable amount and type of peptides.
The hydrolysis conditions under which we have treated our collagen allow us to release a high density of low molecular weight peptides.
According to scientific research, indigestible native collagen weighs a whopping 300 KDa, and it is recommended to hydrolyse below 6 kDa in order to take proper advantage of its functions.
HSN's hydrolysed bovine collagen weighs 3 kDa (3000 Daltons) on average, peptides of perfect complexity for the nutritional effects of this unique protein structure.
With Magnesium and Vitamin C in highly bioavailable and optimally absorbed forms.
Hydrolysed Collagen + Magnesium by HSN has been formulated with the best forms of magnesium and vitamin C available.
The magnesium it provides is in the form of citric salts (citrate) of magnesium with a 15-16% elemental content of magnesium base, and a high bioavailability that resists passage through all sections of the digestive tract.
Vitamin C, which is important for the integrity of collagen, is available in pure, highly concentrated form. Ascorbic acid is available for organic use as the body does not require metabolisation to use it, it is already directly bioavailable.
Why take collagen with Magnesium & Vitamin C?
Collagen is a protein that is very present in the connective structures of our body.
This supplement is ideal for daily use, not only for collagen but also for its magnesium and vitamin C properties, because vitamin C contributes to the normal formation of collagen for the normal function of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, skin and teeth.
In addition, the magnesium in the product is important for energy metabolism and helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue.
