Overview:
Bovine Collagen Peptides is a flavorless and odorless white powder derived from cow hides. This type of collagen peptide is 90 percent similar to types 1 and III collagen found in the human body. This makes it an ideal supplement for supporting the health of skin, hair, nails, muscles, tendons, ligaments, bones, gums, teeth, eyes, and blood vessels. It is also rich in glycine which is a precursor for building DNA and RNA as well as for forming creatine.
It is used in a variety of applications including nutricosmetics, cosmetics, beverages, and sports nutrition.
Common Dosage: The recommended dosage for beef collagen peptides depends on the intended use. 11 grams per day is ideal for boosting complexion, strengthening joints and bones, and reducing cellulite. Meanwhile 15 grams per day is often recommended for building muscle.
