Collagen is often left out of the modern diet because it is not present in lean cuts of meat, but rather bones, joints, and various other connective tissue. This type of collagen is classed as type I and type III collagen. The “non-desirable” parts of an animal (where collagen is predominantly present) were traditionally consumed on a regular basis by our ancestors, particularly to make meals go further in winter and to provide nutrition that is otherwise unavailable in lean meats.
Today our Collagen Body is only the good stuff – pure type I and type III collagen protein that fully dissolves in hot or cold liquid whilst maintaining its benefits. Flavourless and odourless, Collagen Body can easily be mixed into sweet things like smoothies, chia puddings, rolled into bliss balls or even baked into banana bread. Added to savoury foods like bone broth, soups and sauces. You can even add it to hot drinks like tea and coffee.
The nitty gritty on FORTIBONE®…
What differentiates types of collagen is the way they are enzymatically
hydrolysed. There are specific enzymes that break down each collagen peptide
chain into different final molecular weight profiles. This results in differing
remaining peptide chains within the collagen powder. The individual amino acids
remain the same, but it is the length of the connected amino acid chains
(peptides) and the different terminal ends of the chains that are specific to
each collagen peptide product and determine its function.
Usage:
Mix 18 g (3 scoops) daily into any liquid of choice – from smoothies to
soups, Collagen Body is flavourless, odourless, and completely dissolves in hot
and cold liquid.
Ingredients: Hydrolysed Collagen, FORTIBONE® (Bovine Source).
Collagen Disclaimer
We do not guarantee that our bovine are fed organic grass all year around as
some of them are located in Germany and due to the fact it snows there for a
large portion of the year, it is impossible to ensure that they are eating grass
fed 100% as their diets may need to occasionally be supplemented with wholesome
non-gmo grains.
