Look great from the inside out
COLLAGEN is the primary connective tissue that contains close to 30% of animal protein matter. It is produced in the body and connects and supports the body’s tissues. Collagen production tends to slow with age, causing loss of skin suppleness.
From a dietary aspect, collagen can be obtained from animal skin. However, this also contains high amounts of fat and cholesterol. Therefore, a fat-free, collagencontaining beauty drink or nutricosmetic is preferred.
Younger skin It is crucial to know and understand the source, features and characteristics of collagen peptides. The cutting-edge technology employed in the production of peptan collagen from France involves moderate and careful hydrolysis to produce collagen peptides that stimulate the skin’s natural production of collagen.
These peptides trigger the synthesis of new collagen fibres by stimulating fibroblast cells.
For optimum results, researchers from Japan recommend an intake of 200mg of collagen per kilogramme of body weight each day.
Peptan collagen is scientifically proven to be a powerful anti-ageing ingredient.
A recent French clinical study showed that peptan collagen promoted collagen formation in the deeper layers of the dermis, improving the skin’s collagen network from within.
Previous Japanese and French clinical trials found that peptan collagen increased skin hydration levels by 28% after two months, reduced line formation and boosted skin suppleness by 19% in three months.
Healthy joints Osteoarthritis is caused by degeneration of the cartilage. Collagen fibres make up 70% to 95% of cartilage and are responsible for its structure and strength, while aggrecan helps lubricate joints. Healthy cartilage is maintained by a finely balanced process that breaks down collagen and aggrecan and replaces them with a newly formed matrix.
To help prevent osteoarthritis, it is essential to ensure this balance is protected and the necessary building blocks for collagen are available. Peptan collagen has been proven to stimulate chondrocytes to produce more collagen and aggrecan.
Bone strength Research has shown that a daily intake of 8g to10g a day of bioactive collagen peptides can help maintain collagen levels and preserve bone health.
Peptan collagen has been shown to preferentially stimulate the bone cells responsible for bone formation compared to cells involved in bone resorption.
Sports and fitness nutrition Protein is a key ingredient in sports nutrition formulations. Peptan collagen is a pure and easily digestible source of protein. A pure, concentrated source of high-quality protein, peptan collagen enhances and assists in post-exercise muscle mass regeneration and optimisation.
Kordel’s La Beaute Kordel’s La Beaute is a “Beauty from Within” nutricosmetic that contains peptan marine collagen 8,000mg from France, patented rose petal extract and royal jelly from Japan and patented amla juice (Amlamax) from the United States, all of which help bring out your inner glow.
Rose extract has been found to reduce the activity of tyrosinase and free radicals and therefore may help reduce skin discolouration and dark spots. The active ingredients in royal jelly induce fibroblast cells to produce growth factors for collagen production.
Moreover, royal jelly increases hyaluronic acid levels, which improves water retention and encourages skin hydration. Amla contains beta-glucogallin, superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione, ellagic acid and vitamin C, which help reduce melanin formation and prevent damage to fibroblast cells after UV exposure.
In addition to its beauty benefits, Kordel’s La Beaute helps reduce joint pain and risk of injury caused by high impact movement, improves bone mineral density, increases bone size and solidity, builds muscle mass and supports recovery.
