Give Guidance About Collagen Peptides for Skin Conditions

Patients will ask if collagen peptides really work to fight the effects of aging on skin.

These supplements are very small pieces of collagen...the primary structural protein in skin, tendons, cartilage, muscles, etc. The products used in studies are often derived from fish or chicken.

You’ll hear collagen peptides also referred to as “hydrolyzed collagen” or “collagen hydrolysate.” Most collagen products on the market are collagen peptides...since oral absorption is up to 90%.
