Marine Collagen

Understanding Collagen begins with knowing that it is truly the glue that holds the body together. It is the building block for all our body's major systems and the second most common substance in the body, second only to water in terms of volume. Although abundant in our youth, the body's natural Collagen production typically slows at a rate of 1.5% per year after the age of 25. As this collagen production slows, the collagen fibers in the body become brittle and begin to break down resulting in a weakening of the skin matrix (dermis).

The skin matrix is responsible for the structural integrity and resilience of the skin and its natural degradation results in many of the visible signs of aging such as fine lines, loss of elasticity and eventually, deep wrinkles. NeoCell's Marine Collagen, formerly known as Fish Collagen, is enzymatically hydrolyzed into low molecular weight peptides for maximum bioavailabilty.
