Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body and necessary for connective tissue health—think skin, tendons and ligaments. Supplemental collagen supports these important structures while vitamin C boosts the body's natural production of collagen. Swanson Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides + Vitamin C delivers 1,000 mg of collagen from types I and III along with 10 mg vitamin C to promote youthful looking skin and healthy joints.
Type I Collagen is usually taken to target skin elasticity and skin hydration, as well as to strengthen nails and thicken hair. Type III Collagen is usually found in combined supplements, most often along with type I collagen, as is the case in the body where it helps to promote total body health and provide building materials for growth and maintenance of healthy tissues.
Vitamin C is needed by the body for the maintenance and synthesis of collagen. It also offers antioxidant protection against external factors that can impact skin health and appearance. Additionally, vitamin C helps the body regenerate vitamin E, another free radical scavenger that can protect against oxidative damage to cells.
Give your body the tools it needs to promote beauty from within! Swanson Collagen Peptides + Vitamin C is hydrolyzed for easier absorption, minimally processed, non-GMO and has no proprietary blends so you know exactly what you’re getting.
