Collagen peptides, whether taken orally or applied topically, have positive effects on health and beauty. Collagen is vital for the elasticity, flexibility, and strength of the skin, tendons, and ligaments, but also for the cornea, cartilage, bones, blood vessels, and intestines.
Seagarden is a Norwegian brand specialized in high-quality marine collagen, sustainably sourced from wild-caught fish, offering pure and bioavailable peptides designed to support overall well-being.
What makes marine collagen peptides unique?
Collagen peptides derived from fish are receiving increasing attention due to their favorable characteristics and the limited availability of mammal-derived collagen peptides.
Marine collagen, composed mainly of type I collagen, closely resembles the predominant type of collagen found in human skin, bones, and tendons. This makes it especially relevant for both nutricosmetics and musculoskeletal health.
Marine collagen is typically derived from fish skin, scales, or bones, and has gained popularity thanks to its high bioavailability, which results from its lower molecular weight peptides compared to bovine or porcine collagen.
This allows for more efficient digestion, absorption, and systemic distribution.
Scientific studies have shown that marine collagen peptides can improve skin elasticity, hydration, and dermal collagen density—key indicators of a youthful appearance. Beyond skin health, marine collagen also supports musculoskeletal health. It may help reduce joint pain and improve joint function, especially in older adults or those with osteoarthritis. This is partly due to the peptides’ ability to stimulate chondrocyte and osteoblast activity, supporting cartilage and bone regeneration.
Seagarden Collagen: high quality natural raw material
SeaGarden’s type I collagen is derived from, and contains, bioactive oligopeptides obtained from cod, whitefish, and salmon skin. The collagen is hydrolyzed into short bioactive oligopeptides that can be immediately absorbed by the body.
