GAL Bovine Collagen Peptides are now characterised by superior properties, perfect solubility, neutral taste and flavour, and a peptide size below 3000 Daltons, which ensures outstanding bioactivity, rapid and complete utilisation in the body. In addition to supporting our health in all its facets, the daily consumption of our new raw material product is as convenient as possible, the neutral, fine-grained powder can be easily mixed into any beverage or even food without clumping. We still recommend taking 10 grams per day to achieve the effect expected from type I collagens.
Collagen is a giant protein found in large quantities in our skin, bones and cartilage. You can get a lot of collagen by eating animal skin, bone and cartilage (e.g. bone broth, jelly, etc.), but it is very difficult to digest. During digestion, collagen is broken down into its smaller constituents, peptides, and then some of it is broken down into amino acids, which is how it gets into the bloodstream to act in the skin and joints.
In our product, the collagen is already present in the form of peptides, i.e. it is digested and hydrolysed. This collagen peptide (hydrolysed bovine collagen), which requires little digestion, helps to maintain youthful elasticity of the skin and the proper functioning and flexibility of the joints.
The effects on skin and joints have only been demonstrated in relation to the consumption of collagen peptides, not in the case of collagen that is not pre-digested (from food). (It is important to note, however, that dietary collagen, not pre-digested, is thought by some to have a beneficial effect on the stomach and intestinal mucosa).
The benefits of our collagen, the physiological benefits of consuming this collagen, are no different from those of our porcine collagen. It is important to stress, however, that our bovine collagen feedstock comes exclusively from grass-fed, pasture-raised cattle raised in a humane way.
Consumption recommendation:
10g (1 heaped tablespoon) per day is recommended for consumption 1 or 2 times a day. There is no taste, but because of its mild smell, it is recommended to mix it with orange juice, cocoa or e.g. cream-vanilla drinks, which mask it well.
