What is collagen?
Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in the body. It is an important part of connective tissue and occurs in dozens of types, depending on the tissue and its function. You can find collagen in the skin, blood vessels, joints, bones and tendons. These are precisely parts of animals we eat less and less of. Collagen mainly contains the non-essential amino acids glycine, proline and hydroxyproline. These amino acids are much less abundant in other protein sources. Collagen is not a complete protein because it does not contain all the essential amino acids.
The benefits of collagen
Recent scientific studies point to the following benefits of collagen on the appearance of your skin:
- Maintains normal appearance of the skin.
- Reduces visible signs of ageing.
- Maintaining normal hydration of the skin.
- Maintain normal elasticity of the skin.
A collagen supplement is a fine way to supplement the amount of collagen in your daily diet.
From grass-fed European cows
NoordCode Pure Hydrolysed Collagen is made of grass-fed European cows. With grass-fed products, the animals spend most of the year on a pasture. They eat grass and other crops full of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. It has a better omega-3 to omega-6 ratio and more antioxidants. They are not fed any hormones or antibiotics, so the end product is as high-quality as possible. This doesn't only benefit us. The animals can roam more freely and eat grass, thus living a more animal-friendly and pleasant life. The environment also benefits. Because the animals walk outside, they fertilise the land, and no artificial fertiliser is needed. This is a much more natural process with fewer nitrogen emissions.
Collagen hydrolysate for good digestibility
Collagen is a large and complex protein in the body. Without further processing, digesting collagen and absorbing all available amino acids can take a long time. Collagen hydrolysate is produced by enzymatically cutting the large collagen protein into smaller pieces. This 'pre-digestion' allows your body to absorb the amino acids faster. Another advantage is that collagen hydrolysate dissolves well in liquid, making it very user-friendly. Pure Collagen Single Servings also have an average molecular weight of 3000 Dalton, further optimising digestibility.
Enzymatic hydrolysation
NoordCode Pure Collagen is enzymatically hydrolysed to make it easier to digest for humans. Unlike other hydrolysis methods, enzymatic hydrolysis uses little heating. As a result, the protein fragments remain intact and the amino acids are not damaged.
Lab-tested and additive-free
NoordCode Pure Collagen has been tested in an independent laboratory for purity and composition. Pure Collagen contains nothing but collagen hydrolysate. No additives, flavours or preservatives. As a result, Pure Collagen has a neutral taste that you often don't even notice in a drink or dish.
Recommended usage
Mix 1 packet daily with coffee, smoothies, (vegetable) milk, breakfast bowls, soups, or other hot and cold liquids. To avoid clumps when mixing with a drink, it is recommended to add the powder first, mix with a small amount of liquid, and stir until the powder is hydrated. Then, add the remaining liquid while stirring continuously.
One NoordCode Pure Collagen Single Servings package contains 14 packets of 12 g, sufficient for 14 portions.
