Collagen is a type of protein that makes up a major component of our body’s connective tissues. Humans and animals create their own collagen naturally, and it can be found in our skin, bones, gut lining, joints, nails, and hair. It brings many benefits to the body, including healthier skin, bone, and joints, but our body’s ability to produce collagen declines as we age.
By the time we reach our mid 20s we start to lose collagen faster than we can make it. Many people may then turn to ingesting collagen to ensure the body has a higher level of collagen to gain the nutritional benefits it brings. At The Aussie Gelatin Company, we provide a range of high-quality marine and bovine collagen protein powder for the best results.
Collagen and gelatin are both proteins rich in amino acids which is sourced from the collagen protein molecule found in the connective tissues of animals. While both are beneficial for your health, they require a different method of preparation, have a different texture, and have different culinary and nutritional applications.
