Collagen 5000 is formulated from a highly hydrolyzed Colleen (99% reader), dosed at 5000 mg per serving. Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body and is a major component of body parts such as tendons, ligaments, skin and muscles. One of the most important functions of Collagen is to provide the structure of skin and bones.
Collagen 5000 is formulated using a highly Hydrolyzed Collagen (greater than 99%) which causes the separation of these complex proteins into their constituent amino assets. Hydrolysis is the process by which a molecule of water is used to break the natural chemical bonds of Collagen. This in turn leads to a truly improved bioavailability and rapid and complete assimilation by the human body.
