Collagen is simply gelatin broken down into smaller amino acid chains called peptides. These peptides can be quickly absorbed by the body and have been shown to improve hair, skin and bone nourishment and support. As the primary structural protein in the body’s connective tissues, collagen plays a vital role in the maintenance of the cartilage, tendons, and ligaments that keep joints functioning properly.
