Collagen

Hydrolyzation is a process that breaks collagen down into smaller parts called "peptides" that are easily digested and absorbed by the body. Our bovine collagen comes from grass-fed pasture-raised cattle and is a good source of collagen types I & III.

Our chicken collagen concentrate is made from non-GMO chicken bone broth and provides naturally occurring type II collagen. Type II is the structural component of cartilage and is especially good for supporting joints and helping to rebuild ligaments, tendons, skin, and bones.

Eggshell membrane comes from chicken eggs and is the thin, clear, lining that sits between the eggshell and the egg white. It’s a natural source of types I, V, and X collagen, and is considered particularly beneficial for the eyes and joint health.

Vitamin C is a "building block" for collagen production and acerola cherry is one of the best natural sources of vitamin C. This tropical fruit also contains over 150 phytonutrients, including flavonoids and polyphenols, that help your body use vitamin C effectively.

Bamboo is one of the best plant sources of silica – a natural compound found in the earth and our bodily tissues. Silica helps keep connective tissue pliable and is another “building block” of collagen.

Pyridoxine is a form of vitamin B6 commonly found in food and used as a dietary supplement. If you're deficient in vitamin B6 your body won't metabolize collagen properly or efficiently. This is why we add just enough to ensure your body can benefit from the collagen you're taking.

Bovine bone broth protein is a rich source of type III collagen. In the body, type III is important for building connective tissue as well as muscles, bone marrow, blood vessels, and reproductive organs. It's also crucial for the healthy functioning of the cardiovascular system.

Our marine collagen comes from wild-harvested fish (cod, haddock, pollock) and is an excellent source of type I & III collagen. Marine collagen has been shown to be beneficial for overall health as well as being a "go-to" type for supporting skin, nail, hair, and gut health.

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that's missing from most collagen supplements. Collagen that lacks enough tryptophan is not a complete protein and doesn't count toward the recommended Percent Daily Value for dietary protein. Organixx collagen is a complete protein with 150mg of tryptophan in every serving.

This remarkable plant grows deep in the Amazon rainforest where its fruit and leaves are used by the indigenous people as medicine. Not only does camu camu contain anti-viral properties, it’s chock full of natural vitamin C.

Zinc is an essential trace mineral vital for many functions in the body, including collagen synthesis. It’s a “co-factor” for the production of new collagen while also helping to slow the breakdown of collagen in the body.
