1.    BUILDS BONE STRENGTH
The loss of bone mass is one of the most common signs of aging and can lead to osteoporosis, which affects over 75 million people throughout the U.S., Europe, and Japan. Making sure we have enough calcium and phosphorus is essential to maintaining bone strength. However, these minerals are difficult to absorb, resulting in deficiencies and putting us at risk for bone loss and bone disease. Studies have shown that fish collagen peptides help the absorption of calcium and other minerals that are essential for bone strength Additionally, fish collagen supplementation stimulates collagen synthesis in the bones by promoting bone-building cells, called osteoblasts,³ that build the organic matrix of bone, which is 90% collagen.

2.     SLOWS AND REVERSES AGING

The collagen in our skin begins breaking down at age 21 and continues to be degraded throughout adulthood, leading to saggy, wrinkly skin as we get older. 70% of our skin is made of Type 1 collagen, and supplementing with fish collagen peptides, which are a Type 1 collagen, replenishes our skin and helps to reverse aging. Clinical trials have shown patients who supplement with fish collagen have a decrease in wrinkles and improved skin hydration and firmness.

3.     STABILIZES BLOOD SUGAR

Fish collagen has a unique amino acid composition with higher glycine levels than any other types of collagen. Scientists are continuing to discover the beneficial roles of glycine throughout the body, specifically in relation to supporting healthy blood sugar levels. Recent research has found a connection between low blood glycine levels and impaired glucose tolerance, which suggests low glycine may lead to insulin resistance and ultimately diabetes. In fact, a 2016 study by the Alberta Diabetes Institute found consistently low levels of circulating glycine among people with type 2 diabetes.6 . Supplementing withfish collagen, which contains high amounts of glycine, can help balance blood sugar levels, which is especially important for diabetics.

4.     SUPERIOR PROTEIN SOURCE FOR WEIGHT MANAGEMENT

Fish collagen is a pure protein source that does not contain any carbs, sugar or fat. Daily intake of fish collagen helps to suppress appetite by keeping you feeling full longer and thus can help  promote weight loss.
