ESN Collagen Peptides

Description Collagen Peptides

Innovative bioactive collagen peptides supplemented with vitamin C, zinc and copper for normal cartilage, bone and skin function, as well as for maintaining healthy skin and normal connective tissue.

Virtually everyone thinks about nourishing the muscles. But what about the rest of the musculoskeletal system? Ligaments, tendons, cartilage and skin have elementary functions in every movement. They also need to be adequately supplied so that they do not become the limiting factor in your physical goals! The collagen powder ESN Collagen Peptides provides you with three patented tissue-specific bioactive collagen peptides and vitamin C, zinc plus copper as essential micronutrients for skin, cartilage, bones and connective tissue.

Sooner or later, everyone will experience it on their own body: If just one structure of our musculoskeletal system is not 100% efficient and healthy, the whole body suffers. It is therefore all the more important that you also think about the supposedly less important, weak parts of your body. After all, just because ligaments, tendons and cartilage don't look like much doesn't mean they should be neglected. They are essential for every movement, for the stability and mobility of your body! Imagine you step awkwardly and your ankle twists. If you have healthy, elastic ligaments, nothing will probably happen. However, if you have damaged ligaments, such a mishap could put you out of action for a few weeks or even months. It is even more serious if you are permanently restricted in your movement due to worn joint cartilage in your shoulder, hip or knee or if a tendon can no longer withstand your muscle strength under extreme conditions. You should therefore also think about the care of your ligaments, tendons and cartilage! Stretch marks due to insufficient supply of connective tissue and limited collagen formation for healthy skin function are the lesser of two evils. But here too, it's not just for aesthetic reasons that it's worth paying attention to optimal care. Connective tissue is essential for your body. Depending on the type, it protects and supports different areas of your body.

As word has spread about the relevance of collagen as the main component of most connective and supporting tissues, as well as a fiber component of tendons, ligaments, bones and cartilage, there are also more and more dietary supplements with collagen. However, most products only contain simple collagen hydrolyzate. Collagen hydrolyzate differs from bioactive collagen peptides as it still contains a completely unspecific combination of amino acids. Your body must therefore first break down the collagen hydrolyzate and form specific amino acid chains, so-called peptides, from it. This process is complex and requires various cofactors and enzymes. If an enzyme cannot be formed or there is a lack of a cofactor, the process comes to a standstill. In the innovative branded raw materials Tendoforte, Fortigel and Verisol used in ESN Collagen Peptides, bioactive collagen peptides are produced from simple collagen hydrolysate with the aid of complex enzymatic cleavage, which have nothing to do with simple collagen hydrolysate apart from the starting material. ESN has added vitamin C, zinc and copper to the formulation of the collagen powder to ensure that there are no shortages of relevant micronutrients.

Tendoforte consists of bioactive collagen peptides and specifically supplies your ligaments and tendons for stability and elasticity. Fortigel contains optimized collagen peptides that can accumulate in the joint cartilage and serve as a nutrient there. Verisol can contribute to skin elasticity, structure and strength through its specific collagen peptides.

In stressful times and with increased requirements, it is often not easy to get enough micronutrients. Athletically active people have an increased need for various vitamins and minerals. This is why a well-founded and innovative collagen supplement should naturally also contain selected micronutrients that are involved in collagen formation and contribute to the maintenance of healthy skin and connective tissue, in addition to bioactive collagen peptides instead of collagen hydrolysate. As zinc has been proven to contribute to protein synthesis and the maintenance of healthy skin, this trace element is definitely one of them. Considering that zinc intake in men decreases with age from the age of 25 and that, according to the NVS II, 66% no longer reach the recommended daily intake between the ages of 35 and 50, it is clear that this trace element can be a limiting factor. As women require significantly less zinc, "only" 30% do not reach the recommended daily intake. In normally active or inactive people. Athletes, however, have a higher requirement, which is why it can be assumed that a suboptimal supply is even more common here.

Healthy collagen formation is essential for the normal function of cartilage, bones and skin. It has been scientifically proven and confirmed by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) that vitamin C contributes to collagen formation as an irreplaceable cofactor. A lack of vitamin C leads to poor elasticity in the skin, bones and even cartilage. Although our average vitamin C intake is sufficient, vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin with a half-life of just 13 hours. In other words, without regular intake, even with an adequate average supply, shortages can occur at times. In addition, sport and infections, for example, significantly increase the vitamin C requirement.

Copper is required for the cross-linking of collagen and elastin, which is the basic prerequisite for maintaining healthy connective tissue. There is sufficient scientific evidence of this connection, which has also been confirmed by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Although it is estimated that the recommended daily intake is reached on average, active sportspeople also have an increased requirement due to the increased loss of minerals through sweat, among other things. Unfortunately, there are no precise findings on the copper supply, as the supply status was not determined in past consumption studies. For this reason, ESN Collagen Peptides contains a moderate dose of copper. The amount contained is selected to prevent a deficiency and to prevent an overdose even if the supply is already sufficient.

Even with a functional supplement such as ESN Collagen Peptides, we remain true to our claim when it comes to taste. Because let's be honest: even the best supplement will not be taken in the long term if it is inconvenient or does not taste good. ESN wants supporting your body to be a pleasure, not a challenge!
