NZ PROTEIN COLLAGEN HYDROLYSED 300g
A Concentrated Protein Supplement For Joints, Bones and Skin.
Collagen Protein Powder
Hydrolysed collagen is a relatively new protein powder. It is an excellent source of high-quality protein (>90%) with no fat or carbohydrates. It's easily-dissolvable, rapid-digesting, odourless and tasteless (unflavoured). Supplementing with it is an easy way to increase protein intake to assist with joint and connective tissue repair.
Collagen contains 18 amino acids, including eight out of nine essential amino acids. Because one of the nine essential amino acids is not present (tryptophan) it is not technically a complete protein. Therefore it may not be the best protein shake to have after exercise if trying to achieve maximum muscle development.
Due to the way your body uses amino acids to build muscle, bone, cartilage, skin, hair, connective tissue, etc - this product is better thought of as a supplement for supporting connective tissue and joint strength.
It can be taken anytime of the day. It can be mixed with water and sipped throughout from a drink bottle, combined with a NZProtein shake, added to hot beverages, and/or smoothies. It also performs well in baking.
Hydrolysate and Peptides
This product is collagen from bovine (beef) hides/bones that have been hydrolysed into an easily dissolvable, rapid-digesting form.
Hydrolysed simply means that it's been broken down into smaller pieces called peptides that are easily absorbed by the body. Therefore collagen hydrolysate, hydrolysed collagen, and collagen peptides are all the terms for the same product.
Because it's hydrolysed it's also tasteless and odourless.
Bovine vs Marine Collagen
Collagen is an animal product and may be extracted from various sources such as cows (bovine), chicken, or fish (marine). It is structurally all the same, though the amino acid ratio and concentration may vary between sources.
Bovine and marine sources are the two most common types sold on the market and this product is bovine collagen.
We selected bovine because fish (marine) collagen is very high in calcium - meaning care must be taken not to over-consume it as this can risk hypercalcemia, whereas bovine is not.
