I want to correct an anti-aging misconception: I often hear people say: There is a lot of collagen in trotters. Just eat trotters directly. Why do we need collagen peptides? If you eat trotters or other animal collagen directly, the absorption efficiency of collagen is very low. While taking hydrolyzed collagen peptides, the absorption rate can reach 100%.
Why, let me explain the principle: the main components of collagen: glycine, proline, and carbonylproline. The three amino acids that our body needs to synthesize collagen. The metabolic pathway is very complicated and consumes energy, so the body is more inclined to ingest from outside the body rather than synthesize. However, in vitro ingestion will encounter another trouble: collagen can protect our skin very well, protecting other animals.
This means that collagen structure is very stable and difficult to decompose by enzymes in our body, such as the trypsin pancreas. This is why the absorption efficiency of eating trotters is very low. And our intestine has evolved a function that can directly absorb and utilize small collagen peptides through transport. Collagen peptides are currently the most efficient of all digestion and absorption pathways. Therefore, collagen peptide anti-aging is not an IQ tax, let alone a placebo, but a rigorous scientific basis and scientific anti-aging ingredients proven by clinical experiments! Collagen peptide is a magical existence, and it is like a key given to us by God to unlock the secret of time!
