What collagen types does Collagen & Colostrum contain?Updated 4 months ago

Practically, all types. But it's more complicated than that.

Hydrolyzed collagen (such as the one we use in our supplement), regardless of its original type, undergoes a process called hydrolysis that breaks down its protein chains, transforming it into small peptides that our bodies can digest and absorb.

This process yields a universal composition of amino acids and bioactive peptides that support both nutritional and functional health benefits (of all collagen types). The resulting benefits and composition of hydrolyzed collagen depend more on the hydrolysis method and the quality of production rather than the type of original collagen or the animal source.

Consequently, specifying the type or origin of collagen in hydrolyzed collagen is unnecessary and irrelevant.
