What you must know about hydrolyzed collagen

About hydrolyzed collagen?

Hydrolyzed collagen is made of collagen after scientific processing. Collagen polypeptide with relatively small molecular weight can be completely dissolved in water, which is absorbed by the human body and has a higher utilization rate, and can promote the absorption of other proteins in food.

The function of hydrolyzed collagen

When you see the word “collagen”, I believe everyone can understand that hydrolyzed collagen is definitely related to collagen. Hydrolyzed collagen is to supplement the amount of collagen in the body, so that the skin can restore elasticity and regain firmness and firmness, reduce sagging, smooth fine lines and wrinkles, create silky hair, strong nails and a beautiful figure.

Hydrolyzed collagen is by no means an oral beauty product. It’s a holistic beauty product for hair, nails and body. The body sculpting potential of hydrolyzed collagen. As we age, our bodies gradually lose their ability to “make” muscle, while fat mass continues to increase, resulting in a lower muscle-to-fat ratio than when we were younger. Collagen’s ability to support muscles can effectively help the body restore its original health and beauty. Different from general slimming products (only lose body muscle or water), this collagen skin tone has a remarkable effect. After taking it, the user will notice that the body fat has lost several inches, and the body has become more slender. Stronger and slimmer.

Using collagen as part of an overall weight control program, along with a healthy diet and exercise, can go a long way in the slimming process. It’s a pity that collagen doesn’t burn fat directly like some companies’ promotions say, but it can boost metabolism. When taken before bed, it works extremely well during the first stages of falling asleep, allowing the body to repair, build and heal muscle tissue in its natural state. Collagen’s special amino acids help maintain and build fat-free muscle. Because muscle helps regulate and boost metabolism, fat can be burned for energy to support the body’s repair process.

Hydrolyzed collagen come from:

Let’s start with collagen. Collagen mainly exists in animal tendons, ligaments, cartilage, skin and other connective tissues. It is a type of protein composed of three polypeptide chains and has a triple helix structure.

At present, 29 homologous and heterotrimers have been identified, such as type I collagen, type II collagen, type III collagen…. All trimers of this class share a common amino acid repeat that not only distinguishes collagen from other proteins, but also creates the triple helix structure characteristic of collagen.

Under the action of acid, alkali, heat or enzymes, collagen is hydrolyzed into a peptide mixture, also known as hydrolyzed collagen. At present, most of the hydrolyzed collagen is prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis, and the enzymes used are usually trypsin, chymotrypsin, pepsin, alkaline protease, protease E, pronase, collagenase, bromelain or papain.

What raw materials are mainly used for hydrolyzed collagen?

The main raw materials used for hydrolyzed collagen are connective tissues such as skin, bone, tendon, tendon or cartilage of animals (including cattle, sheep, pigs, fish and poultry). In addition, fins and scales of aquatic animals can also be used.

Maxmedchem, which is the leading manufacturer of APIs and Intermediates, could produce various of collagen from difference sources mentioned above.
