Hydrolyzed collagen, gelatin and collagen

2017-05-04


Hydrolyzed Collagen absorbs better than gelatin or plain old collagen. The most important thing about a hydrolyzed collagen is that it gets absorbed in your tissue–making your skin, joints, muscles and bones stronger.  Studies have demonstrated the difference in absorption between collagen and hydrolyzed collagen. Within 6 hours of ingestion, 90% of hydrolyzed collagen is found in the blood and in tissues all over the body while only 27% of collagen is absorbed. The very low molecular weight of hydrolyzed collagen in comparison to gelatin is what makes it more absorbable by the body.
