MARINE COLLAGEN

WHY MARINE COLLAGEN?

Marine Collagen is actually the superhero of animal-derived collagen. Marine collagen is a type of structural protein obtained from sea creatures, consisting of pure collagen peptides in the form of white, powdery, water-soluble, Type 1, and is the most common form of collagen in the human body.

​ ​

This structural protein is divided into small pieces by the production and transformation process called hydrolysis, and its molecular weight is called collagen peptide. The smaller the peptides and the lower the molecular weight, the easier and more effective the absorption of collagen by the body.

Yapılan araştırmalara göre, hidrolize balık kollajen vücuda 1,5 kata kadar daha verimli bir şekilde iletilir ve sığır kolajenlerinden daha fazla biyoyararlanıma sahiptir.

For this reason, as MERMAID COLLAGEN, we preferred fish collagen, also called “white gold”, while creating our formulas, and we offer you fish collagen-based products with a very low molecular weight of 1000 Daltons, fast absorption and bioavailability.

TYPE 1  COLLAGEN

In the MERMAID COLLAGEN series, only premium collagen obtained from fish scales is used, which is a type of structural protein in the form of Type 1. There are 28 different types of collagen in the human body, classified according to their structure. However, about 85% of this collagen is type 1-2-3 collagen.

 

TYPE 1 COLLAGEN IS THE MOST COMMON FORM OF COLLAGEN IN OUR BODY. TYPE 1 COLLAGEN CONSISTS 70% OF OUR SKIN, OUR BONES AND CONNECTIVE TISSUES.

​ ​

Type 1 fish collagen is also rich in two specific amino acids: glycine and proline. Glycine is the basis for sequencing DNA and RNA, while proline is the basis for the human body's ability to naturally produce its own collagen. Given that glycine is vital to our DNA and RNA, it performs many important functions for the body, including blocking endotoxin and transporting nutrients for body cells to use for energy. While proline can act as an antioxidant for the body and prevent cell damage from free radicals, its number one function is to help stimulate the process in the body, providing collagen synthesis.

​ ​

Type 1 Marine collagen is a good choice for those who want to slow down the signs of aging, increase skin, hair and nail health, reduce the clarity of wrinkles and cellulite, increase the hydration and firmness of your skin, build bone strength, support cholesterol and blood sugar levels, and get support in weight management. Whether taken as a powder or liquid, fish collagen will help support and improve the health of your skin, hair and nails, bones and joints.

AMINO ACIDS COMPATIBLE WITH THE HUMAN BODY

Since marine collagen has an amino acid composition very close to human collagen, it has the capacity to be quickly absorbed by our body and provide optimal benefit, as well as this proximity with the human body allows marine collagen to stay in the body for a longer time.

It is considered the best source of collagen for medicinal purposes, as it is more efficiently and quickly delivered into the bloodstream. This promotes collagen synthesis in joint tissues, bones, dermis of the skin and many other essential body systems.

Mermaid Collagen Amino Asit Profili

MERMAID COLLAGEN serisinde BALIK PULLARINDAN enzimatik hidrolizasyonla elde edilen 1000 Da molekül ağırlığına sahip atibiyotik içermeyen ve Helal sertifikalı premium balık kolajen kullanıyoruz. 

Biyoyararlılık ve Emilim 

Kolajen seçiminde dikkate alınması gereken en önemli faktörlerden biri molekül ağırlığıdır. Kolajenin emiliminin artması ve bağırsak bariyerini geçebilmesi için, kolajenin moleküler ağırlığının düşük olması çok önemlidir. Molekül ağırlığı arttıkça, kolajenin vücut tarafından emilimi zorlaşır. Hidrolize Balık kolajenin diğer kolajen türlerine göre moleküler ağırlığının çok düşük olması hem biyoyararlanım hem de emilimi kolaylaştırır.  Balık kolajen peptitleri diğer kolajen türlerine kıyasla, daha küçük parçacıklara ayrılmış olduğu için, biyoyararlanımın daha yüksek olduğu bilinmektedir. Bu, faydalarını cilde, eklemlere ve kolajene ihtiyaç duyulan diğer bölgelere ulaştırmada daha etkili olduğu anlamına gelir.

SUSTAINABILITY and TRACEABILITY

Tilapia fish scales are used in our hydrolyzed marine collagen, which we use in our products, which is sustainably grown and fished without harming the environment. Our raw material that we supply has a sampling rate of 99%. Our supplier, one of the leading initiatives in the field of tilapia processing, has GAP, FDA and EU certifications. All production links, including the rearing, feeding and water monitoring of all their offspring, are controllable, traceable and pollution-free.
