Collagen is a protein that is essential for the structure, cohesion and youthful appearance of the human body. Found in the skin, bones, muscles, ligaments and joints, it accounts for nearly a third of the body\u2019s total protein. Acting as a kind of \u2018biological cement\u2019, it ensures the elasticity and strength of tissues. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

From the age of 25, her natural production decreases by around 1% per year. This gradual decline results in a loss of firmness, more visible wrinkles, increased stiffness in the joints, as well as a thinning of hair and of nails. <\/span>
Marine collagen, thanks to its superior bioavailability, is now establishing itself as a natural solution for supporting the body\u2019s structure and vitality at any age<\/span><\/b>. <\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>

Why does collagen production decrease over time?<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h2>

As we age, the <\/span>fibroblasts<\/span><\/b> \u2013 the cells responsible for collagen synthesis \u2013 become less active. This phenomenon becomes more pronounced after the age of 30 and accelerates after 40.<\/span>
As a result, the dermis loses density, the tissues lose their firmness, and cell regeneration slows down.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

The main aggravating factors:<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

  • Excessive exposure to the sun (UV)<\/span> <\/span><\/li>
  • Deficiencies in vitamin C, zinc or amino acids<\/span> <\/span><\/li>
  • Excess of sugar (glycation of collagen)<\/span> <\/span><\/li>
  • Chronic stress, lack of sleep<\/span> <\/span><\/li>
  • Tobacco and air pollution<\/span> <\/span><\/li><\/ul>

    A healthy and balanced lifestyle helps, but is not always enough. Hence the value of a <\/span>supplementation with hydrolysed collagen peptides <\/span><\/b>, whose bioavailability and safety have been demonstrated in numerous clinical studies clinical.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    From the age of 25: preserving your youth capital<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>

    Improve the elasticity and hydration of the skin<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h4>

    Collagen accounts for around 70% of the proteins in the skin: it gives it structure, flexibility and the ability to retain water.<\/span>
    From the age of 25\u201330, a decline in collagen leads to a loss of elasticity and the appearance of fine lines.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    Did you know?<\/span><\/b><\/h5>

    From the age of 30, the skin loses around 1% of its collagen each year. This loss can reach up to 30% during the menopause. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    The <\/span>hydrolysed marine collagen<\/span><\/b>, composed of <\/span>low molecular weight bioactive peptides (< 2000 Da)<\/span><\/b>, is recognised for its <\/span>high bioavailability<\/span> and its <\/span>key role in supplying the essential amino acids required for collagen formation<\/span><\/b>.<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>

    Randomised, double-blind clinical trials (Asserin et al., 2015)<\/span><\/b> have shown:<\/span><\/p>

    • +23.7% elasticity after 3 months<\/span><\/li>
    • +22.8% hydration after 3 months<\/span><\/li>
    • \u201311% reduction in wrinkles around the eyes after 8 weeks<\/span> <\/span><\/li><\/ul>

      The combination with vitamin <\/span>C<\/span><\/b>, which contributes to the normal formation of collagen, and together with <\/span>hyaluronic acid<\/span><\/b>, supports the <\/span>maintenance of skin firm and hydrated<\/span><\/b>.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

      The <\/span>Peptan\u00ae marine collagen<\/span><\/b> has been the subject of <\/span>more than 70 scientific publications<\/span><\/b> documenting its <\/span>composition, its bioavailability and its tolerability<\/span><\/b>, confirming the <\/span>quality and safety of use<\/span><\/b> of this ingredient. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

      From the age of 40: supporting joint mobility and flexibility<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>

      Joints are made up of cartilage, a tissue rich in type II collagen. As we age, collagen production naturally declines, which can affect flexibility and mobility. <\/span>
      Vitamin C<\/span><\/span> contributes to the <\/span>normal formation of collagen<\/span>to ensure the <\/span>normal function of cartilage<\/span><\/b>.<\/span><\/b><\/b>
      Clinical studies have shown that supplementation with hydrolysed collagen peptides helps to <\/span>maintain joint comfort<\/span><\/b> as part of an active lifestyle.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

      Did you know?<\/span><\/b><\/h5>

      Collagen accounts for approximately <\/span>60% of joint cartilage<\/span><\/b> and contributes to its strength and flexibility.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

      From the age of 45: strengthen hair and nails<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>

      Hormonal changes affect keratin production: hair becomes finer and nails more brittle. <\/span>
      Collagen, rich in glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, <\/span>plays a role in keratin synthesis<\/span> and <\/span>contributes to the strength of hair and nails<\/span><\/b>.<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>

      According to a study published in the <\/span>Journal of Dermatology<\/span><\/i> (2017), a 6-month course of collagen supplementation resulted in <\/span>a significant reduction in nail breakage<\/span><\/b> among the participants.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

      Did you know?<\/span><\/b><\/p>

      Hair is made up of nearly 95% keratin. Collagen provides key amino acids that contribute to the structure and vitality of the hair follicle. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

      Formulas enriched with <\/span>remineralising plants<\/span><\/b> (horsetail, nettle, Montpellier hairwort) <\/span>complement the action of collagen<\/span><\/b> and support overall hair health.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

      After the age of 55: maintaining bone density<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>

      After the menopause, the drop in oestrogen accelerates bone loss.<\/span>
      Bones, 90% of whose organic matrix is made up of collagen, become more fragile.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

      Hydrolysed marine collagen<\/span>contributes to the structure of bone tissue by providing essential amino acids<\/span><\/b>. Combined with <\/span><\/span><\/b> vitamin D<\/span><\/b>, to <\/span>magnesium<\/span><\/b> and to <\/span>zinc<\/span>, which <\/span>help maintain normal bones<\/span><\/b>, it supports the strength and regeneration of the skeleton.<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>

      A randomised study (<\/span>Nutrients<\/span><\/i>, 2018) showed that supplementation with a specific collagen for 12 months <\/span>significantly increased bone mineral density<\/span><\/b> in postmenopausal women.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

        The art of supplementation: how to maximise the benefits<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>

        To get the most out of marine collagen:<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

        • Consume 10 g of hydrolysed collagen peptides per day<\/span><\/li>
        • Always combine with <\/span>vitamin C<\/span><\/b> (collagen formation)<\/span><\/li>
        • Drink at least 1.5 litres of water a day<\/span><\/li>
        • Follow a regular course of treatment lasting at least 2 to 3 months<\/span><\/li>
        • Cut down on sugar and focus on antioxidants<\/span> <\/span><\/li><\/ul>

          Did you know?<\/span><\/b><\/h4>

          Clinical studies suggest that improvements in skin condition associated with taking marine collagen can be observed after 6 to 8 weeks.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

          In short: collagen, a key to beauty and vitality at any age<\/span><\/b><\/p>
