why our marine collagen
Wild Caught
Ocean fish are free from pollutants and preservatives. Wild caught fish are not as prone to disease because they live in their natural habitat which do not need constant monitoring and they are not injected with any chemicals to keep them healthy.
Skin Only
Derived only from the skin of the fish only. Fish skin is a by-product of fish which helps to reduce impact to the environment. Marine collagen made from fish skin undergoes less processing as fish skin is soft, so the collagen can be extracted completely natural with heat and enzymes, without using any harsh chemicals. Marine collagen made from fish scales on the other hand requires acid to melt the scales which might affect the collagen activity and are not fully natural for long term consumption.
Low Molecular Weight
Abundant in type I collagen and is one of the finest in the world at only 2000 Dalton molecular weight so it is highly bioavailable for the body to absorb. Bioavailability defines how fast the nutrients can be extracted from the food to be transported and absorbed into our bloodstream. The lower the Dalton molecular weight, the higher the bioavailability and the faster it is to be absorbed by our bloodstream to trigger health benefits.
Quality assurance
Guaranteed by health certificates to be fit and safe for human consumption as each batch of our marine collagen is tested for heavy metals and other contaminants. They only come from establishments registered by the European Union for the production and import of edible fish.
