Marine Collagen Peptides

What is marine collagen?

Marine collagen can be sourced from a variety of fish. Further Food Premium Marine Collagen is made from the skin and scales of wild caught cod from the North Atlantic, making it a premium and sustainable source of fish collagen.

What is the difference between marine collagen and bovine collagen?

Marine collagen is sourced from fish, whereas bovine collagen is sourced from cows. Both marine and bovine collagen have the same benefits and can be used interchangeably.

Why should I take Further Food Premium Marine Collagen?

Marine collagen powder is the most bioavailable of all collagens, meaning it gets absorbed faster and more efficiently. The research demonstrates that Marine Collagen may help improve skin, bone, joint, and digestive health.+

Further Food Premium Marine Collagen has over 6 grams of collagen peptides per serving and includes 18 amino acids (8 essential amino acids). It also contains not only the usual Types 1 and 3 collagen, but also Type 2. That simply means our single-source collagen can provide more overall support!

Additionally, our marine collage powder contains more glycine than other types of collagen. Glycine is a vital, all-encompassing amino acid that provides tremendous health benefits. Glycine’s health benefits include helping to: promote the building of lean muscle mass,  prevent the formation of stomach ulcers, improve glucose tolerance to potentially protect against diabetes. Glycine also has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

How do I store it?

Further Food Premium Marine Collagen should be stored at room temperature, in a cool, dry environment.

How absorbable are Marine Collagen peptides in my body?

Further Food Premium Marine Collagen Peptides are short-chain amino acids and are highly bioavailable, meaning that the collagen is absorbed within a short amount of time. Research has shown that more than 90% of collagen is absorbed into the bloodstream within the first six hours after consumption.+

What are marine collagen side effects?

No known side effects have been reported. We recommend taking collagen with food in order to prevent any intestinal discomfort that may occur.

How long will it be before I see results, and how long will the results last?

Collagen begins restoring and repairing skin, bones, joints, ligaments and your gut immediately.+ Clinical trials have shown visible improvements after four to twelve weeks of supplementation, depending on the study and the benefit being measured. However, one should take collagen peptides indefinitely to combat aging because our body produces less and less collagen every year. Supplementing with Premium Marine Collagen is not a temporary fix, it’s a lifelong dedication to better health from the inside out.
