Collagen Peptides, Swanson Vitamins, Unflavored, 20 Packets, 10g Each

About the product

Do you notice that with age, your skin loses its elasticity, fine wrinkles appear more frequently, and your joints sometimes feel a slight discomfort or crunch after morning exercise? These are classic signs that your body is reducing its production of collagen—the main structural protein that acts as a framework for tissues, tendons, and skin. Swanson Collagen Peptides is an easy way to provide your body with this important building block. This supplement contains highly absorbable hydrolyzed peptides that help maintain skin elasticity and hydration from the inside, maintain joint mobility, and strengthen hair and nails.

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body, forming the basis for connective tissue, skin, bones, and cartilage. In this supplement, it is presented in hydrolyzed form, meaning it is broken down into small peptides for maximum and easy absorption by the gastrointestinal tract. It is obtained from free-range, grass-fed cows, which ensures the purity of the product and a high profile of important amino acids such as glycine, proline and hydroxyproline.

• Release form: 20 packets, 10 g each.
• Recommended daily serving: 1-2 packets.
• Recommended age: adults.
• Certification and features: non-GMO, gluten-free, dairy-free, from grass-fed cows, pasture-raised.

Why take

• Support for youthful and hydrated skin - collagen peptides stimulate fibroblasts, helping to maintain normal moisture levels and elasticity of the epidermis. This can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and improve overall facial tone.

• Joint comfort and mobility — amino acids in the composition are the building blocks of cartilage and ligaments. Regular use can help maintain joint flexibility and reduce discomfort after daily physical activity.

• Strengthening hair and nails — collagen peptides provide the body with key nutrients needed to form strong keratin. This helps reduce brittle nails and maintain healthy shine and structure of hair.

• Support for muscle structure and bones — one serving of the supplement contains 9 grams of high-quality protein, which is involved in the restoration of muscle fibers after activity. Collagen also helps support the structural integrity of bone tissue.

Directions for use

Amount per day: 1-2 sachets per day.

When to take: As a dietary supplement, mix the contents of one sachet (10 g) in a 240 ml glass of water or juice once or twice daily.

Works best with:

• Vitamin C is a critical cofactor that promotes better absorption of the supplement and supports the body's own collagen synthesis.
• Hyaluronic acid is an excellent complement to collagen for comprehensive skin hydration and tissue elasticity.

Combinations should be avoided with:

• Very hot drinks (boiling water) - although collagen is heat-stable and suitable for warm coffee, adding it to boiling water (over 80°C) can partially destroy the protein structure (it is worth cooling the drink a little before adding).
• Powerful sorbents - can interfere with the full absorption of protein, so it is better to take a break of at least 2 hours between taking them.

Storage conditions: Keep out of reach of children. Store in a cool, dry place.

Contraindications and warnings

• Warnings: For adults only. Do not use if the protective film is damaged.

• Product Status:This product is a dietary supplement. It is not a drug. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How soon can I see results from taking collagen?

Since tissue repair processes take time, the first positive changes in skin hydration can usually be seen after 4-6 weeks of regular use. English: It may take 2 to 3 months of continuous use to support joint comfort.

Does this collagen have a taste or odor?

No, this Swanson supplement is unflavored. It dissolves easily and will not alter the taste of your morning coffee, juice, or favorite smoothie.

Is it better to take collagen in the morning or evening?

Timing is not critical to absorption. Many people choose to add a packet of powder to their morning coffee or water for convenience and energy, but you can take it in the evening if that fits better with your daily routine.

Can this powder be dissolved in hot coffee?

Yes, collagen peptides are heat-stable, so they can be safely added to warm to moderately hot drinks without losing their beneficial properties. However, avoid dissolving in freshly boiled water.
