OUR PRODUCTS
Made from collagen, broken down, through a natural process, into active basic collagen building blocks. These building blocks include collagen amino acids and peptides, specific and in the correct ratio, for your body to use in building its own collagen. A no-fuss, safe and convenient dietary supplement to improve your health and quality of life, but with an important difference. Not all supplements are equal. The science behind these diet supplements is indisputable, well researched, tested in many clinical trials, and most definitely results in significant benefits if taken daily and in the recommended dosage.
We provide a dietary supplement of pure hydrolyzed collagen which is extracted from the bovine hide.
- Our products are very safe to use.
The American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has classified gelatine, from which collagen amino acids and peptides are often prepared, as a safe substance. In addition, based on international research, both the World Health Organization (WHO) and the European Commission for Health and Consumer Protection have confirmed that hydrolyzed collagen is safe. In South Africa, hydrolyzed collagen is also regarded as safe. The safety of hydrolyzed collagen, its amino acids and peptides, as well as gelatin is widely recognized.
- Our products are very convenient to use.
Our products are introduced in tasteless fine powder which easily dissolves in water. The product is unflavoured and can conveniently be mixed with a food or beverage of your choice. Scoops are included to easily measure off the recommended dosage.
We use the broad term “collagen” since many people have heard about it. Technically, however, we are selling hydrolyzed collagen also referred to as collagen hydrolysate. Another popular name used is “Collagen Peptides” and is sometimes, incorrectly, referred to as “Gelatin”.
- Our products are pure hydrolyzed collagen.
It contains no carbohydrates, fat, cholesterol, gluten, soy, dairy, purines, preservatives, sweeteners, synthetic aromas, colorants, fillers, or any known allergens.
(Purines are a natural substance found in some foods for example red meat. When your body digests purine, it produces a waste product called uric acid. A build-up of uric acid crystals in the body can cause certain health issues. The main ones are a type of arthritis known as gout and kidney stones. A high-protein diet typically contains large quantities of purines. Whey, soy and pea proteins have high concentrations of purines.)

JOINT & BONE
PROMOTE MOBILITY & RELIEVE PAIN
Collagen Joint & Bone supplements the diet with basic collagen building blocks and improves metabolic processes to effectively build, maintain, repair and strengthen collagen in joints, cartilage, ligaments, tendons, bone and muscle.
Collagen Joint & Bone is a diet supplement made of pure hydrolyzed collagen protein which is ideal for your body to use in building and repairing its own collagen in your joints and bones.
Science is also showing that supplementing with hydrolyzed collagen can not only speed up the recovery of athletes, it can also help with activity-related joint pain and may even help prevent injury. The study further suggests that collagen supplementation may reduce the risk of joint deterioration. Build, Maintain, Repair And Strengthen: -Joints, Bones, Cartilage, Muscle, Ligaments And Tendons.
Collagen is an important connective tissue and a vital protein in our bodies. It is found in joints, bones, cartilage, tendons and ligaments. However, the collagen in our bodies decreases with age. When collagen is degraded faster than it is rebuilt in our bodies, it can reduce your quality of life significantly. Boosting collagen production may prevent or alleviate joint and bone diseases.

Help Prevent And Regenerate Bone Fractures
With aging, collagen production decreases and osteoporosis may occur. Osteoporosis is a serious bone disease characterized by low bone density and structural degradation of bone tissue. This leads to bone fragility and an increased risk of painful bone fractures. However, this painful and debilitating condition can often be prevented or relieved by supplementing the diet with collagen. Collagen may also help prevent bone fractures and promote the regeneration of bones by strengthening them.
Increase Bone Density Of Especially The Elderly And Menopausal Women
Low bone density is mostly associated with the elderly, menopausal women and the disease osteoporosis. Osteoporosis results in low bone density and the structural degradation of bone tissue. Low bone density leads to bone fragility and an increased risk of painful bone fractures. By supplementing the diet with collagen, the cells in bones responsible for producing collagen is activated and the strength and density of bones are improved.
Promote Mobility
With aging, the body produces less collagen than what it uses up. This may lead to an age-related disease such as painful osteoarthritis. As osteoarthritis progresses, it results in poor mobility and flexibility as well as unstable joints. Without intervention, it can become debilitating and significantly reduce your quality of life. Fortunately, supplementing your diet with collagen may prevent or alleviate osteoarthritis; thereby allowing for greater mobility, flexibility and stable joints.
Relieve Pain Associated With Osteoarthritis And Osteoporosis
Arthritis is the inflammation of joints and is mostly associated with aging. As less collagen is replaced in joints, osteoarthritis becomes a problem. Osteoarthritis is a serious joint disease which causes inflammation, swelling, pain and immobility which progressively increases and can become debilitating. Since aging decreases collagen production, osteoporosis may occur. Osteoporosis is a serious bone disease characterized by low bone density and structural degradation of bone tissue. This leads to bone fragility and an increased risk of painful bone fractures. However, these painful and debilitating conditions can often be prevented or relieved by supplementing the diet with collagen.
Help Improve Muscle Strength And Recovery In Especially Athletes And Elderly Men Suffering From Sarcopenia
Sufficient collagen helps to boost muscle mass, strength and recovery in especially athletes and the elderly.
Science shows that supplementing the diet with collagen may not only speed-up recovery of muscles in athletes but also help with activity-related joint pain and might even help to prevent injury.
Retaining muscle mass is crucial as you age, since it helps to support posture and bone health. A recent study found that elderly men with loss of muscle (sarcopenia) gained significantly more muscle when supplementing their diet with collagen whilst doing light exercises in comparison with those only doing light exercises.

SKIN, HAIR & NAILS
PROMOTING ANTI-AGING, HEALTH & WELLNESS
Collagen Skin, Hair & Nails supplements the diet and helps the body to effectively build, maintain, repair and strengthen collagen in skin, hair and nails. It slows down the natural skin aging process; promoting a healthier and more youthful appearance.
Healthy skin, hair and nails fight the signs of aging and improve overall beauty and wellness.
For many women, well-groomed fingernails are an inseparable part of an attractive appearance, but many women suffer from cracked or chipped nails as well as nail peeling and nail roughness. Collagen can help to improve the growth, strength and health of fingernails.
Reduce BMI-Dependant Cellulite (BMI 24)
Cellulite is typically due to a lack of collagen in the dermal layer of the skin, which normally “holds the fat in place”. A weakening in the collagen support structure leads to fat deposits, pushing through the connective tissue beneath the skin. A recent study demonstrated that regular ingestion of collagen, over a period of six months, leeds to a clear improvement of the skin appearance in women suffering from moderate cellulite.
Improve The Condition Of Brittle Nails (Rough Surfaced, Ragged, Easily Chipped, Peeled Or Broken Nails)
Nails are mainly made of keratin. Collagen helps to build strong nails because it contains many of the building blocks necessary to produce keratin.
In a recent study, it was found that supplementing the diet with collagen improved the symptoms of brittle nails by 64%.

Slows Down The Natural Skin Aging Process, Promoting A Healthier And More Youthful Appearance
Collagen is the skin’s natural support and forms most of the protein in the dermal layer of your skin. When young, your skin has sufficient collagen which keeps your skin tight and wrinkle-free. With age, your skin loses collagen faster than the body can replace it. Your skin becomes weaker and thinner resulting in wrinkles and sagging skin. In order to reduce wrinkles and maintain healthy skin, you need more, healthy collagen in the dermis layer of the skin. Oral collagen supplementation boosts collagen production in the skin and improves the appearance and health of aging skin. Studies have shown that after eight weeks of oral collagen supplementation, the skin showed significant improvements in firmness, wrinkle depth, smoothness, elasticity and hydration of the skin
Improve Skin Firmness, Strength And Structure Of The Collagen Network
Supplementing the diet with collagen increases the production and density of collagen in the dermis skin layer. This also improves the structure of the collagen network and results in firmer and stronger skin.
Significantly Decrease Wrinkling And The Depth Of Wrinkles
Studies have shown that the oral administration of collagen significantly reduces wrinkles and the depth of wrinkles. It also leads to a significantly higher skin pro-collagen concentration.
Improve Hair Strength And Growth
Hair is also mainly made of keratin protein. Collagen helps to build strong hair because it contains many of the building blocks necessary to produce keratin. A scientific study found that the supplementation of the diet with collagen improved the thickness, growth and strength of hair.
Promote Skin Cell Regeneration Of: Collagen, Water-Binding Proteoglycans And Elastin
The oral administration of collagen stimulates collagen-producing cells in the skin to renew and repair normally. It also increases the production of collagen, elastin and water-binding proteoglycans in the Extra Cellular Matrix. This results in firmer, stronger, more elastic skin with a higher moisture content.
Increase The Moisture Content And Elasticity Of The Skin
Administered orally, collagen influences the skin’s collagen metabolism directly from the inside. It increases the skin’s moisture and delays the formation of wrinkles. In a recent study, it was shown that collagen supplementation leads to significantly higher skin elasticity – up to 15% – compared to placebo treatment.
Significantly Increase Nail Growth And Resistance To Damage
Nails are mainly made of keratin. Collagen helps to build strong nails because it contains many of the building blocks necessary to produce keratin. In a recent study, it was found that supplementing the diet with collagen improved nail growth by 12%, decreased the frequency of broken nails by 42%. and improved the symptoms of brittle nails by 64%.

Has Anti-Oxidant, -Diabetic And -Tumour Properties
It has been demonstrated that collagen has good anti-oxidant properties and fight free radical damage. Too many free radicals can harm cells, proteins and DNA. Anti-oxidants neutralize free radicals, rendering them harmless.
It has been reported that collagen has anti-diabetic properties. It improves glucose tolerance by inhibiting glucose uptake and enhancing insulin secretion.
Collagen has been shown to have anti-tumour effects. Strong and healthy collagen is an impenetrable force that cancer cells cannot break through, which prevents the spread of cancer.
Help Improve Bone Density And Prevent Bone Fractures
As we age, collagen production slows down. On a dry weight basis, collagen represents 90% of bone mass and a decrease in collagen can lead to osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a serious bone disease characterized by low bone density and structural degradation of bone tissue. This leads to bone fragility and an increased risk of painful bone fractures of especially the hip, but not only the hip.
Multiple studies have found that supplementing the diet with collagen, stimulates bone-creating cells that prevents and relieves osteoporosis.
Enhance Wound Healing
The oral administration of collagen enhances skin wound healing by stimulating collagen- creating cells in the skin. It also improves the environment of these cells and increases the production of elastin.
In a recent study, patients treated with oral supplementation of collagen had greatly improved wound healing. The wounds healed quicker and aesthetically looked better with less scarring.
Reduce The Risk Of Cardiovascular Diseases
Collagen maintains and improves the health of arteries by helping to shrink fat and plaque build-up in arteries. This helps prevent arteriosclerosis which is the hardening of artery walls. Collagen is also used for tissue repair in arteries and helps improve blood circulation.
Help The Body’s Natural Detoxification Process
Collagen helps minimize liver damage when it absorbs foreign substances, toxins and alcohol. The amino acid glycine, which is found in collagen, can even reduce alcohol-induced liver damage and other forms of acute or chronic liver injury.
Promote Mobility, Flexibility And Stabilize Joints
With aging, the body produces less collagen than what it uses up. This may lead to an age-related disease such as painful osteoarthritis. As osteoarthritis progresses, it results in poor mobility and flexibility as well as unstable joints. Without intervention, it can become debilitating and significantly reduce your quality of life.

Aid in digestive health
Leaky Gut Syndrome is a common digestive problem. It includes changes in the permeability of the gut lining which allows particles and toxins to pass into the bloodstream where they can cause inflammatory reactions.
Poor gut health is caused by the weakening of intestinal walls which are partly made of collagen. Collagen supplements can help prevent and reverse poor gut health by re-building the collagen in intestinal walls.

EQUINE JOINT HEALTH
PROMOTE MOBILITY & RELIEVE PAIN
True Collagen is a huge protein molecule which makes up ~ 30% of all the protein in a horse, it aids in the health of joints, tendons, ligaments, bones, skin and organs; collagen is great for supporting the health of muscles, the gastrointestinal tract, hooves, haircoat, as well as the mane and tail.
Because the true collagen molecule is so huge, it cannot directly be absorbed the bloodstream whereas Collagen (hydrolyzed) is collagen protein which has been broken down into small super absorbable amino acids and small peptides. These collagen building blocks are well absorbed into the bloodstream and carried to the collagen building cells in the horse’s body where it is needed such as to collagen producing cells in joints.
Improve immunity
Collagen protein is rich in amino acids that support a healthy immune system. Can help boost metabolism, increase muscle mass and energy output, due to specific amino acids found in Collagen

Strengthens bone and prevent bone loss
Reducing the possibility of bone fractures. Foals are known to have positive growth and bone development with collagen supplementation
Greatly aids in digestive health
Collagen supplements can prevent ulcer recurrence and promote stomach health as proven in trials at Louisiana State University’s Equine Health Studies Program. Horses are prone to stomach ulcers and has a compound stomach. Up to 90% of performance horses suffer from gastric ulcers. Hydrolyzed Collagen-fed horses had fewer and less severe ulcers throughout the trial and significantly fewer ulcers were seen after 56 days of feeding.
(80% of young foals removed from mares are susceptive to getting ulcers).
Strengthens Mares, Foals and Youngstock
Many studies have been done all yielding similar results. Collagen has a positive influence on the growth and bone development of foals. Foals are generally larger than a control group, their joint cartilage is thicker and pastern joint width is superior. In addition, hair and hooves also show better growth. Collagen has also been associated with female fertility

SOUTH AFRICAN TRIAL REVEALS AMAZING RESULTS
We fed horses with Collagen for 3 months at a dosage of 50 grams per day. The response from the trainers and stable owners was astonishing. Here’s what they had to say…..
Promotes muscle strength and recovery
Especially in athletes and elderly horses. This was evident in the trial ran in this article. It is said that one month of muscle loss takes up to six months to recover. Collagen shortens this period drastically.
Reduces the risk of heart disease
As with people, collagen strengthens organs such as the heart. It also improves the health of arteries
Promotes healthy skin, coat, hair and hoof health
Collagen helps counter act conditions such as chronic laminitis, cracked hooves, or dry, brittle feet incapable of holding shoes. Coat health was evident in our trial
Promotes wound healing and repair
This was most evident in our South Africal trial
Alleviates anxiety
Due to the amino acid glycine which is abundant in collagen, horses may be calmer. Also something evident in our trial
