So, what is hydrolysed collagen?

Hydrolysed collagen is a protein-rich ingredient derived from animal connective tissues, such as skin and bones, that have undergone a process of hydrolysis to break down the large collagen molecules into smaller peptides. This makes it easier for the body to absorb and utilise the collagen, which is an essential component of skin, hair, nails, and joints. Hydrolysed collagen has been shown to improve skin elasticity, reduce joint pain, and potentially even support bone health. It is often used in supplements, protein powders, beauty products, and functional foods.
