Edible Health Marine Collagen Powder – 400gm

Description

Many of us are looking for ways to improve our health and well-being and marine collagen supplements are an easy, inexpensive way to help support our bodies and improve different aspects of overall wellness.

Marine collagen (or fish collagen) in particular, may offer a variety of benefits when added into our regular routines:

1. Marine Collagen for Skin

Collagen is responsible for maintaining skin elasticity, skin texture, minimising the appearance of wrinkles and hydration. As such, supplementing a healthy diet with marine collagen may help to improve and to prevent visible signs of skin ageing.

2. Marine Collagen for Bone Health and Healing

Studies have found that there could be an anabolic influence of specific collagen peptides (SCP) on bone formation and bone mineral density. Why do we want healthy bones? Not only do they keep us moving, but they also help to protect our organs and store minerals (calcium and phosphorous) that can be released into the body when required for other purposes.

3. Marine Collagen for Quality Sleep

Glycine is the most prevalent amino acid in marine collagen and is known to have impressive sleep-enhancing benefits, which in turn influences whole-body health and well-being. Glycine may also help to lower core body temperature which is linked to better sleep.

4. Marine Collagen for Blood Sugar Level Stability

The benefits of marine collagen powder may help to modulate blood sugar levels after consumption due to its high protein levels.

5. Marine Collagen for Gut Health

Our gut microbiome is a delicate ecosystem that can be imbalanced by everything from poor diet and toxins to anxiety and stress. Marine collagen contains both glycine and glutamine, which are two amino acids that play an essential role in rebuilding the tissue of our digestive system. Glycine, which has anti-inflammatory properties, may also benefit those who struggle with intestinal inflammation such as IBS, irritable bowel syndrome, Chron’s Disease or leaky gut.

6. Marine Collagen for Post-Workout Recovery and Muscle Building

Creatine is a natural compound, that may help increase muscle mass and therefore improve endurance and athletic performance. Glycine can help boost the levels of creatine in the body, which helps minimise muscle breakdown. In addition, the antioxidant properties of proline, another amino acid in marine collagen, may help ward off post-workout aches and pains linked to cellular damage.

Marine collagen is also much easier to digest than whey or casein proteins. It doesn’t bother sensitive tummies in the way that traditional dairy-based protein powders can and, whilst whey protein may contain more amino acids in total, many of these can be denatured by the excessive amount of processing that whey proteins have to go through during the manufacturing process.

7. Marine Collagen for Hair 

As mentioned earlier, marine collagen contains high amounts of proline. This amino acid is an essential part of keratin production, the protein that our bodies use to produce more hair. Marine collagen benefits for hair may include strengthening, improving the condition and potentially slowing down hair loss or hair thinning.
