Product Information

Simply put, some of the metabolites of the kynurenine pathway are neurotoxic and thought to stimulate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which can present as anxiety and feelings of stress for some. In fact, hyperstimulation of the HPA axis is another of many hypotheses for depression. High cortisol (our stress hormone) output can further deplete serotonin and dopamine (our joy neurotransmitter/hormone). Odourless, flavourless and clear, you can buy gelatin from the supermarket in leaf or powdered form. It’s brittle when dry but gummy when moist, which makes it particularly useful in soft sweets.

The extra protein may make you feel thirstier than usual, so always have a bottle of water handy. Is there anything you can do to make collagen powder work more effectively? The reason behind this is the high number of amino acids per peptide. The higher the number of amino acids in a peptide, the more stable it is at higher temperatures. Marine type I collagen is the most heat-tolerant of all because it has the highest percentage of amino acids (along with type III).

How long does collagen take to start working?

But besides age, there are other factors that contribute to declining levels of collagen in the skin. UV rays from the sun, cigarette smoke, pollution, poor diet and even stress can all speed up the breakdown in the skin’s structure. As a side note though, collagen contains a fair amount of glycine, an amino acid that scientists believe could promote a restful night’s sleep. While other natural sleep aids have more evidence of effectiveness, if you’re already taking collagen and find it hard to sleep, there’s nothing to stop you from taking it before bed to see what happens. How much collagen should you take per day?

Bare Biology source their fish oil from Norwegian fisheries and manufacturers certified by both Friends of The Sea and the Marin Trust. They never use farmed fish, only small wild fish which contain fewer heavy metals and other pollutants. They publish the IFOS independent test results for every batch, so you can be assured of their freshness and safety. It’s perfectly safe to take the two together and one won’t ‘cancel out’ the effects of the other. Omega-3 is pretty much pure fat and collagen is protein, so they do not share the same metabolic pathways. They don’t compete for the same enzymes when it comes to digestion, meaning they can both be fully metabolised, taken up by the bloodstream and absorbed by our cells. No. While collagen powder supplements contain all the amino acids we need to make our own collagen, they contain no omega-3, EPA or DHA at all. Is it safe to take collagen and fish oil together?

You can add our original Skinful Pure Marine Collagen to hot drinks, and it’s a really popular way of taking it. A mid-morning collagen coffee is a good way to keep hunger pangs at bay too. Does heat damage the collagen powder?

No matter the source, all types of collagen target the effects of ageing. As a general rule, Logan suggests opting for a well-researched hydrolysed, marine-sourced, Type 1 collagen. “Type 1 collagen provides the main support for the skin, helping to provide structure,” she says. “ As it breaks down, we start to lose that structure, which can lead to the signs of ageing. Research has indicated that keeping collagen levels high in the body, by using absorbable collagen peptides, can help to slow the down the development of lines and wrinkles.”Bare Biology began in 2012 when Melanie Lawson couldn`t find a quality fish oil supplement to suit her needs. This led her to create her own pure, fresh fish oil supplements with high amounts of EPA and DHA, no additives or fillers and no unnecessary ingredients. The body can absorb thishydrolyzed collagen peptides (meaning tiny fragments) and free amino acids with a very low molecular weight of under 3,000 Daltons. Finally, if you are about to embark on collagen supplementation and have a history of mental health concerns, then it may be worth discussing this with a qualified healthcare professional or nutritionist to find the best way forward for your unique body and mind.
