Collagen peptides have various names on the market, including hydrolyzed collagen, small-molecule collagen or collagen, but different names point to using collagen-rich tissues in animals as raw materials. For example, common fish skin, beef bone, cowhide, pigskin, etc., under the hydrolysis of acid and alkali and protease, the non-aqueous soluble macromolecular collagen triple helix structure is opened, and the average molecular weight is less than 10,000. A small molecule collagen peptide mixture.

Collagen peptides in the beauty market:

The role of collagen peptides in skin health has been confirmed in many studies at home and abroad, mainly in:
1) Increase the skin's water retention and keep the skin from drying out. This is a key indicator of skin health. When the skin is dehydrated, the stratum corneum will harden and form a crack. The skin will become easily irritated and inflamed. Itching and the skin will also become rough.
2) Reduce skin wrinkles and make skin more delicate. In daily life, affected by sunlight and other factors, the collagen fibers and elastic fibers in the dermis will be denatured and broken, causing the skin texture to deepen. Oral collagen peptide can make the skin Reduced wrinkles, giving people a delicate skin.

Collagen peptides in the sports and elderly markets:

Many studies at home and abroad have also shown that oral collagen peptide can reduce joint pain and joint discomfort. After oral administration of collagen peptide, it increases the proteoglycan content of articular cartilage, and stimulates joint stromal cells to synthesize collagen, thus helping to maintain joints. Structure and increased joint comfort, in the bone-based test, collagen peptide can increase osteoblast proliferation, differentiation and bone matrix mineralization, reduce bone resorption of osteoclasts, enhance and prolong anti-osteoporosis drug calcium reduction The effect of the vegetarian diet is to improve the effect of osteoporosis, and the effect on female consumers after menopause is also very obvious.

Collagen peptide future market development

Collagen peptides are aimed at a wide range of customers and are very compatible in the formulation, so it can be easily added in various dosage forms, which greatly promotes the development of the collagen peptide market, and also because of collagen. The peptide is very limited by the stability of the raw material supply, and the problem of the productivity and quality stability of the collagen peptide still needs to be further solved.
