What our customers say.
A better skin from within.
-
Skin
Collagen is an importing building block for healthy skin. Hydrolysed marine collagen has been proven to increase collagen levels, improve elasticity and hydration, and reduce the oil content. This leads to a more glowing skin and reduction of wrinkles.
-
Muscles
Collagen is also an important component of skeletal muscle. Studies suggest that collagen supplements help boost muscle mass. It may also stimulate muscle growth and recovery after exercise.
-
Bones and joints
Collagen helps maintain the integrity of your cartilage, the rubber-like tissue that protects your joints. Collagen also supports the loss of bone mass as you bones are mostly made of collagen.

What is hydrolysed marine collagen?
Hydrolysed marine collagen is sourced from Tilapia fish scale and are considered to be the highest quality source of collagen.
The word “hydrolysed” means that we chopped up the collagen molecules into smaller amino acids by means of hydrolysation. In this way, your body is able to absorb the collagen more effectively. Hydrolysed marine collagen has a higher bioavailability than other sources of collagen.
Our hydrolysed marine collagen are from a Type I collagen and contain high amounts of the amino acids glycine, proline, hydroxyproline, alanine and glutamic acid.
The science behind collagen.
Collagen is often called the body’s scaffolding and it is the most abundant protein in the human body. Despite the fact that collagen is present in many of the foods that we eat on a daily basis, your body is able to produce collagen itself. But - as we age - levels of collagen in our body are dropping as your body produces less of it and breaks down more.
Research has found that supplementation with hydrolysed (marine) collagen increases levels of collagen in your body and skin. It improves elasticity and hydration, and reduces oil content. Muscles, bones and joints also benefit from increased levels of collagen.

How much hydrolysed marine collagen should I take per day?
There are no official guidelines as to how much hydrolysed marine collagen should be taken per day, but most research considers 2.5 to 15 grams of collagen per day as a safe dosage. With our recommendation of 10g per day (2 scoops or 2 level tablespoons) you’re hitting the sweet spot.
Studies into hydrolysed marine collagen for improved skin and hair health were conducted with 2.5 - 10 grams of collagen daily. While for bone, muscles and joint issues, study participants have taken up to 15 grams per day.
Frequently Asked Questions
+ Is hydrolysed marine collagen safe?
Our hydrolysed marine collagen is made from fish scales, so they are NOT safe for people with a fish and/or seafood allergy.
Other than that, collagen is a protein that is produced in the human body and is available in many different types of food. We make sure that our product is free from heavy metals, such as mercury, and test the product in a third party lab before we ship it to our customers.
+ What is hydrolysed marine collagen?
Hydrolysed marine collagen is sourced from Tilapia fish scale and are considered to be the highest quality source of collagen.
The word “hydrolysed” means that we chopped up the collagen molecules into smaller amino acids by means of hydrolysation. In this way, your body is able to absorb the collagen more effectively. Hydrolysed marine collagen has a higher bioavailability than other sources of collagen.
Our hydrolysed marine collagen is a Type I collagen and contains high amounts of the amino acids glycine, proline, hydroxyproline, alanine and glutamic acid.
+ Why should I take hydrolysed marine collagen?
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body, providing structure, support or strength to your skin, muscles, bones and connective tissues. It is produced by the body itself, but collagen levels go down as you age. That is because production of collagen is lower, but the body also starts to break down more collagen than it produces. Hydrolysed marine collagen provides the amino acids your body needs to naturally produce collagen.
Increasing levels of collagen in your body has benefits in many areas such as skin health, muscle recovery, bone and joint health.
+ What are the ingredients in The Skin - Hydrolysed Marine Collagen?
The Skin contains 100% pure hydrolysed marine collagen, made from farmed Tilapia fish scales.
