- Collagen is the most abundant protein and building block in the human body needed for the structure and density of the skin, joints, and bones.

- Your body naturally makes Collagen, but production starts to slow down in your 20s.
- You can get more Collagen from certain foods and collagen supplements, like Theraputica Premium Collagen products.
- Collagen makes up visually everything in our body: Arteries Joints all the structures of your Joints; Ligaments, Muscles, and Tendons Bones Skin Hair Lung Liver Heart Kidney Digestive Tract Organs. So virtually all the parts of our body; the ground substance the structure material is Collagen.
Where is Collagen produced in the body?
The fibroblast cells are responsible for producing Collagen. With the natural aging of the body, Collagen production will Slow down, and the number of these cells will decrease.
What is the difference between the Collagen in our bodies and the Collagen in our product?
The Collagen naturally present in our skin, joints, bones, tendons, and ligaments has a high molecular weight. If ingested, it will break down like a piece of steak and will not be adequately absorbed. The Collagen in our product is Hydrolyzed Collagen with a lower molecular weight. It is easily digested in the stomach and absorbed in the small intestine.

What is the source of Hyaluronic Acid?
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is based on bio-fermentation.
What happens after oral ingestion of Hydrolyzed Collagen?The enzymes in our stomach break the Hydrolyzed Collagen down into smaller peptides and free amino acids, which are then easily absorbed in the small intestine before passing through the small intestine walls to reach the bloodstream supplying the dermis Hair, and Joints. Here, they activate the fibroblast cells to make new Collagen, Hyaluronic acid, and elastin to hydrate the skin and the rest of the organism and improve its status.
Doesn't the stomach acid destroy the Collagen preventing it from reaching the dermis (skin's deeper layer, Hair, and Joints)?
That's right and wrong!
Right in the fact that the collagen molecule is indeed too large to be absorbed effectively by the intestine because It has a molecular weight of 300,000 Dalton's, so your body can't ingest a molecule so large.
These hydrolyzed collagen peptides have a molecular weight of just 5,000 Dalton's. They can be absorbed quickly and effectively into the body. So that's where some doctors are wrong!
