This OstroVit powder combines \u003cstrong\u003emarine collagen\u003c\/strong\u003e from fish with hyaluronic acid and vitamin C, in a summery coconut-peach flavour. You dissolve a serving of four scoops in 100 ml of water and drink it. Take two servings a day, and you'll get 4400 mg of collagen peptides, 80 mg of hyaluronic acid and 160 mg of vitamin C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat marine collagen is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCollagen is the most common protein in your body. It forms a kind of scaffold of strong fibres in your skin, tendons, cartilage, bones and blood vessels. The protein consists largely of three amino acids: glycine, proline and hydroxyproline. Marine collagen is extracted from fish skin and scales. It is predominantly type I collagen. In this product, the collagen has been hydrolysed. This means that the long protein chains have been cut into small pieces by enzymes, so-called peptides. These dissolve easily in cold water and do not clump, unlike regular gelatin, which gels. You can also stir the powder into a smoothie or yoghurt. Good to know: your body does not incorporate ingested collagen directly into your skin. Your gut first breaks down the peptides into individual amino acids and small pieces of two or three amino acids, which then enter your bloodstream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow vitamin C and collagen work together\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour body builds its own collagen from amino acids. Vitamin C is needed for an important step in that process: it activates the enzymes that convert proline and lysine, so that the collagen fibres get their strong, twisted structure. Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of the skin. It plays that role in other tissues too. Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of the cartilage. And vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of the bones. With 160 mg per daily dose, 200 percent of the reference intake, you are well above what you need daily. Vitamin C contributes to the protection of cells against oxidative stress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHyaluronic acid and the rest of the powder\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHyaluronic acid is a substance that your body makes itself and that can hold a lot of water. One gram of hyaluronic acid binds up to six litres of water. You can find it in your skin and eyes, among other places. In this powder, it is sodium hyaluronate, 80 mg per daily dose. Many people wonder whether marine collagen is better than beef collagen. The difference is mainly in origin and type: fish collagen is mainly type I, beef collagen a mix of type I and III. Those who do not eat beef or pork often consciously choose fish. Do keep in mind that this product contains fish, so it is not suitable for those with a fish allergy. Flavourings, citric acid and the sweeteners sucralose and acesulfame K provide the taste. Beetroot juice and carotenoids give the drink a soft peach colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith 200 grams, you have 80 servings, enough for forty days at two servings a day or almost three months at one serving.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"OstroVit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54816672809298,"sku":"OstroVit-020","price":21.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/marine-collagen-hyaluronic-acid-kokos-perzik-ostrovit.jpg?v=1790167860","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.nl\/en\/products\/marine-collagen-hyaluronic-acid-kokos-perzik-ostrovit","provider":"LUTO Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
