Collagen 500ml

Purified water

Purified water is drinking water treated by reverse osmosis (transformation of salt or saline water into drinking water) or distillation, without minerals in its composition. Because it is filtered and potable water, it is free of undesirable substances such as parasites, chlorine, fluoride or dioxins. The benefits of its consumption are help in bowel regulation, skin rejuvenation, hydration of nails and hair and reduction of hypertension along with improvement of blood circulation.

Hydrolyzed collagen

Hydrolyzed collagen is obtained by partial hydrolysis of gelatin and can therefore also be referred to as hydrolyzed gelatin or gelatin hydrolysate. It is a high molecular weight, water-soluble protein with a high melting and gelling point. Hydrolyzed collagen has several health benefits. It exerts a direct protective effect on the joints, protecting against pain and inflammation, prevents osteoporosis because it is the main fibrous protein that makes up bones and joints, has antioxidant, antihypertensive and antimicrobial actions and helps to improve the appearance of skin, hair and nails.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is essential for the formation of collagen, which is essential for the normal functioning of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, skin and teeth. It plays an important role in eliminating free radicals and increasing energy levels. By increasing the absorption of iron in food, it contributes to the prevention of low hemoglobin levels. Iron levels in our body are crucial for energy levels. More iron absorption means more energy, less tiredness and less fatigue. Vitamin C intake is not directly related to fighting anemia, but increasing the body’s absorption of iron helps, as most cases of anemia are caused by iron deficiency. When we talk about vitamin C, we cannot forget its importance for the functioning of the nervous system. With its antioxidant action, it prevents brain damage and aging by eliminating free radicals naturally produced by cellular metabolism and the neuronal energy consumption system. Vitamin C can also be an important ally in the prevention of neurodegenerative diseases, since it is the production of free radicals that causes neuronal degeneration.

Xanthan gum

Xanthan gum is a polysaccharide widely used in food products that helps ingredients mix effectively. It is also used to treat constipation and regulate cholesterol levels.

Potassium sorbate

Potassium sorbate or potassium salt of sorbic acid acts as a food preservative, mild, highly effective and safe fungicide and bactericide that does not alter the taste of food. Sorbates retard and prevent the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, mold and fungi by reducing water and increasing acidity, and preserve the flavor, color, texture and nutritional value of the foods to which they are added.

Sodium benzonate

Sodium benzoate is the sodium salt of benzoic acid and functions as a food preservative. With antifungal properties, it protects food against the invasion of fungi that can cause disease. Sodium benzoate balances the pH level of food and increases the total acidity of food. By lowering the pH, sodium benzoate creates a barrier where fungi cannot grow and spread.

Sucralose

Sucralose is the only sweetener obtained from sugar cane that has the taste of sugar without the bitter residue and without calories. Its molecule is 600 times sweeter than sugar and is fat soluble. It does not accumulate in fatty tissues, does not cross the placenta, is not present in breast milk, since its elimination occurs in the first hours after consumption and in 13 hours it is excreted by the body intact. Studies affirm that sucralose is non-toxic, does not cause cancer, does not affect the immune system, does not affect the central nervous system, does not alter blood glucose and, therefore, can be consumed by anyone, including diabetics, pregnant women, children and the elderly. In addition, sucralose behaves well at high temperatures, being an alternative for the preparation of desserts.

Vitamin B6

Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) is one of the water-soluble vitamins of the B complex. Its daily intake is recommended taking into account that our body stores only small doses. This vitamin can be found in beef liver, nuts, tuna, pork, spinach, lamb, potatoes and cauliflower. Its intake contributes to normal cysteine synthesis, normal energy-producing metabolism, normal nervous system function, normal homocysteine metabolism, normal protein and glycogen metabolism, normal psychological function, normal red blood cell formation, normal immune system function, reduction of tiredness and fatigue, and regulation of hormonal activity.

Biotin

Also known as vitamin B7 and vitamin H, biotin is a water-soluble B-complex vitamin that is produced in the intestine and obtained through food. Like other B vitamins, it is involved in the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates and proteins. The main sources of biotin are nuts, tomatoes, peanuts, carrots, lettuce, almonds and onions. Like all other vitamins, biotin has several benefits for the body: it is good for the skin, hair and nails and helps in the proper absorption of nutrients by contributing to the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins.
