High-strength collagen peptides (10,000mg) drink mix, with glucosamine (800mg), vitamins and minerals (sweet orange flavour): A delicious drink mix, which contains high-strength, high-quality hydrolysed collagen (collagen peptides) - 10g / serving - plus glucosamine HCl (800 mg/serving), vitamins and minerals.
Collagen is the primary building block of the body's skin, muscles, bones, tendons, ligaments and other connective tissues. It is also found in the organs, blood vessels and intestinal lining. It makes up approximately 1/3 of the body's mass, making it the most abundant natural structural protein in the body.
Hydrolysed collagen is a protein supplement made from collagen that has been broken down into smaller molecules ("collagen peptides"). These peptides are more water-soluble, and therefore easier to digest and absorb in the small intestine, ready to be transported to the tissues that need them. In other words, hydrolysed collagen has enhanced bioavailability.
Key Benefits
• This drink mix provides a comprehensive blend of amino acids (the building blocks of protein), including Alanine, Arginine, Aspartic Acid, Glutamic Acid, Glycine, Histidine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Methionine, Phenylalanine, Proline, Serine, Tryptophan, Tyrosine, and Valine.
• Vitamin A contributes to normal iron metabolism, the maintenance of normal mucous membranes, normal skin, normal vision, the normal function of the immune system, and has a role in the process of cell specialisation.
• Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system. It also supports normal collagen formation for the normal function of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, skin and teeth, normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal functioning of the nervous system, normal psychological function, the protection of cells from oxidative stress, the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, the regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E, and increases iron absorption.
• Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system and healthy inflammatory response, normal absorption and utilisation of calcium and phosphorus, normal blood calcium levels, the maintenance of normal bones, muscles and teeth, has a role in the process of cell division, and is needed for normal growth and development of bone in children.
• Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
• Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal functioning of the nervous system, normal psychological function, and the normal function of the heart.
