Collagen + Vitamin c
A Supplement System Boosting Glow and Recovery
Collagen + Vitamin C supplements offer a variety of benefits when taken alone. When taken together, they work in harmony to enhance the other's effect. Amongst all its well-known benefits, Vitamin C is the only vitamin with this unique capability of stimulating our internal production of collagen which naturally slows as we age. Collagen is the structural protein responsible for that healthy, hydrated glow in our skin and an overall youthful look and feel.
SKIN HEALTH:
Collagen is a key component of the skin's structure, adequate vitamin C levels are essential for collagen synthesis. Together they support skin hydration, firmness, and elasticity.
ANTIOXIDANT PROTECTION:
Both vitamin C and Collagen have antioxidant properties. Vitamin C helps protect the skin from oxidative stress caused by free radicals. Collagen, as a structural protein, helps maintain the skin barrier against environmental damage.
WOUND HEALING:
Vitamin C is vital for wound healing and tissue repair while Collagen is involved in the formation of new tissue. Together, they enhance the body's ability to recover from injuries and wounds.
JOINT HEALTH:
Collagen is a major component of cartilage and repair, Vitamin C's role in collagen synthesis contributes to joint health by supporting the process of building and repairing.
MORE THAN A BEAUTY SUPPLEMENT
Formulated with an exclusive blend of marine tropocollagen, algae, tocotrienols and 11 amino acids, Colvita Collagen is designed to combat aging and rejuvenate the body's tissues. Colvita supports the regeneration and restoration of the body, while actively reducing inflammation, relieving joint pain and regenerating connective tissue. It is a powerful supplement, highly recommended for active individuals as it metabolizes protein during a workout and supports the building of muscle mass. Furthermore, it aids in rehabilitation after mechanical injury and post-surgery recovery.
WHAT SETS COLVITA COLLAGEN APART?
The collagen itself is extracted from fish skin and preserved through Lyophilization, a cutting edge method that involves freezing pure collagen up to -40 degrees. This process eliminates water and captures 98% of proteins that are composed of highly bio-absorbable collagen components. This method also allows for the collagen to maintain its triple helix format making the collagen tertiary, a format identical to human collagen.
Colvita Collagen is the only collagen supplement in the world preserved this way.
BIO-ORGANIC. NON-SYNTHETHIC. ALL NATURAL
Majority of Vitamin C supplements on the market are made from synthetic ascorbic acid (derived from glucose, corn dextrose, and other sugar sources) without the accompanying bioflavonoids or other compounds found in natural sources. Plant extracts that contain Vitamin C are required in large volumes to provide effective doses of Vitamin C, this is typically why a low-cost component of synthetic ascorbic acid is added.
Colway’s Vitamin C does not contain any amount of synthetic ascorbic acid, it contains two plant extracts, bitter orange and germinated buckwheat seeds. These plants contain high amounts of Vitamin C allowing for the development of a pure, all-natural, Vitamin C supplement.
Vitamin C is a collagen activator, required for collagen synthesis as it binds collagen fibers, ultimately decreasing signs of aging, and supporting organ and joint health. Vitamin C is the only vitamin with this unique capability and should be taken alongside a collagen supplement.
The Building Blocks of Exosignal
-
Synthetic Exosomes
Lab-engineered vesicles that mimic the functions of natural exosomes found in the body. Exosomes are messengers that transfer proteins, lipids, and genetic material between cells. By carrying proteins and growth factors, synthetic exosomes help repair scalp tissue, reduce inflammation, and create a healthier environment for hair to thrive.
-
Biomimetic Peptides
Biomimetic peptides are synthetic compounds designed to mimic the function of natural peptides in the body. Biomimetic peptides send signals to hair follicles, encouraging them to enter the growth phase (anagen phase) and produce new hair.
-
Snail Slime Extract & Polynucleotides
SSE Is rich in glycoproteins, hyaluronic acid, glycolic acid, and peptides, all of which contribute to healing damaged hair follicles. With the added power of Polynucleotides - long chains of nucleotides, which are the building blocks of DNA and RNA, they help repair damaged cells, promote tissue regeneration, and improve overall skin
FAQ
Why should I take Collagen supplements?
As we age, the natural production of collagen decreases, leading to common signs of aging such as wrinkles, sagging skin, and joint stiffness. This has led to the popularity of collagen supplementation to support overall health, enhance skin appearance, and promote joint well-being.
Your appearance starts to change by age because you are losing Collagen.
Collagen Loss by Age :
Mid 20’s - 1%
Mid 30’s - 2%
Mid 40’s - 3%
How long does it take to see results from taking Colvita Collagen and Vitamin C?
Remarkable transformations have been documented within a month of dedicated twice-daily consumption of Colvita. However, optimal results are apparent after 4 months of consistent intake - remember consistency is the biggest driver of results!
Which Vitamin C supplement is the best to take?
When choosing a Vitamin C supplement consider factors such as the source of Vitamin C, the manufacturing process, and its bioavailability. A considerable amount of Vitamin C supplements on the market are made from synthetic ascorbic acid (often derived from glucose, corn dextrose, and other sugar sources) without the accompanying bioflavonoids or other compounds found in natural sources. Therefore, we would encourage you to look for Vitamin C that is derived from natural sources that are highly bioavailable and don't contain unnecessary additives, preservatives or artificial colour. Colway’s Vitamin C is derived from Bitter Oranges and Germinated Buckwheat, built with ingredients found in nature.
Can Colvita Collagen help with joint pain?
Joint pain is often caused by inflammation within the joints and cartilage. Colvita collagen has anti-inflammatory properties that reduce inflammation (due to amino acids such as glycine and proline that it contains). Furthermore, it contributes to the lubrication of joints by being part of synovial fluid which minimizes friction during movement. Colvita is known for stimulating the body’s natural collagen production aiding in the repair of damaged cartilage.
I have scars post surgery, can Collagen help them heal?
Collagen plays a crucial role in the healing process due to its involvement in skin structure. When you cut your skin, our body uses collagen to form a scaffold-like structure called granulation tissues, which kick-starts the healing process. It assists in contracting the skin fibers as the skin repairs itself, while improving skin elasticity preventing excessive scarring and faster healing on fresh scars.
Can you have an allergic reaction to Marine Collagen?
Collagen is a kind of protein found in fish that's quite similar to the collagen in our own bodies. Because of this, it gets along well with our skin and most people can use it without any problems. However, if you are allergic to fish/shellfish, you may be sensitive to fish proteins. Therefore, if you've had allergies from eating fish before, we caution against ingesting marine based collagen.
