Collagen, in my opinion, is one of the most overlooked parts of human nutrition. In my opinion, many people suffer from a number of problems that they would not have at all if they had enough collagen proteins or the amino acids that collagen protein contains. This is related to the sphere of joints, skin, hair, nails, etc. Approximately 30% of the human body is made up of collagen, including the largest organ of the human body - the skin. Collagen is the most abundant protein in organisms in the world and is important for the strength, elasticity and regeneration of all tissues, organs, ligaments, joints, etc. Contains high concentrations of Glycine, Lysine and Proline. 

Glycine is present in collagen in very high quantities, and how important it is for our body is already demonstrated by the fact that it is the second most abundant amino acid in the human body after Glutamine and plays an important role in basically every part of the human body. Although it is a so-called non-essential amino acid, the intake of L-Glycine as part of supplementation is very essential, especially for athletes. In our body, Glycine is essential in the so-called process of proteosynthesis, which is the process of creating and restoring muscle mass, collagen and connective structures. But that's not all, Glycine, together with Arginine and Methionine, participates in the natural formation of creatine in muscle cells, which is subsequently used to restore cellular energy ATP. Glycine, together with Glutamine, also plays a significant role in the restoration of the intestinal mucosa. Glycine also serves as the basis for the natural formation of the body's superantioxidant Glutathione and participates in the regulation of metabolic synthesis of components used by the brain and nervous system, which is why it is also used to support restful and quality sleep.

What percentage of each part of our body is made up of collagen?

90% of the white of the eye
80% tendons
75% of skin
60% cartilage
30% of bones
1–10% of muscle mass

Collagen essentially acts as glue for our entire body. It creates connective tissue, thereby supporting the healthy structure of skin, muscle tissue, bones and tendons. Even the term "collagen" comes from the Greek word "kólla" and the French suffix "-gen". The word can be literally translated as "glue production".

This glue-like protein is particularly concentrated in the so-called extracellular matrix (ECM). The ECM essentially functions as a support system similar to an imaginary network that holds cells together. The ECM is also responsible for sending signals to reduce inflammation and repair damaged cells.

Hydrolyzed collagen is a unique combination of amino acids in concentrated amounts. This protein has a very low molecular weight and is therefore very easily digestible - within minutes of ingestion. It will not harden or curdle because it has been hydrolyzed for quick use. Collagen is important for nitrogen balance and is considered a top anti-aging product today.

Who is hydrolyzed collagen intended for?
for athletes with heavy loads 
for active people and the older generation in particular
for everyone looking for a molecularly very light source of protein close to the body

Collagen can be bought very cheaply on our market, and of course I don't want to tell anyone that this expensive option is the only option. For me personally, it is a top choice and I use it myself because it is the highest quality beef collagen on the world market, which is why it has its place here. It is made from grass-fed beef from really high-quality, healthy animals. It is chemical-free. It is incredibly soluble due to the more expensive form of hydrolysis. This collagen is produced under the strictest hygienic conditions.

Cheap collagen variants are extra cheap mostly because they use the cheapest form of hydrolyzation and de facto waste parts of unhealthy animals from factory farms. The result is a product that foams a lot and forms lumps and pieces, and sometimes has an unpleasant smell and taste.

This is also cold water soluble collagen - perfect for use in drinks or recipes. It has a neutral taste and smell.

Characteristics and advantages:
soluble in cold water
contains pure natural protein
low molecular weight protein that is rapidly absorbed in the digestive tract within 30 minutes
Contains natural collagen for joint support
Gluten-free
Free of monosodium glutamate (a widely used flavoring); also free of free glutamate from hydrolysate
GMO-free
has not been irradiated during production or as a finished product

It comes from cattle in Argentina. They are pasture-raised and grass-fed based on American Grassfed Association standards and animal welfare guidelines. Production excludes the use of growth hormones, antibiotics and steroids, which is in accordance with food and agricultural legislation in Argentina.

Note: I definitely owe this product to my comprehensive comeback after a serious injury (distal biceps tendon rupture in 2014), when I consumed about 4 kg in the first 2 months after surgery alone, in combination with vitamin C to accelerate healing. I currently use alternating 1 month of beef collagen and 1 month of fish collagen, and I repeat or combine them.

It can be mixed into your favorite drinks or food due to its neutral taste.
