What is Hydrolysed Collagen + Magnesium 2.0 powder?

Hydrolysed Collagen + Magnesium 2.0 powder from EssentialSeries is a flavoured dietary supplement powder made from hydrolysed bovine collagen, magnesium citrate and ascorbic acid.

Collagen is the protein found in the body, present in most connective tissues. It is made up of two α₁ chains and a third α₂ chain, forming a triple helix interlaced structure. (González-Hernández, 2010; Meisenberg y Simmons, 2018).

Hydrolysed Collagen + Magnesium 2.0 powder is a product developed with excellent refreshing flavours such as: Pineapple, Red Fruits, Apple, Orange, Lemon and Watermelon.

Why take Hydrolysed Collagen + Magnesium 2.0 powder?

Collagen

Collagen is the most abundant protein in our body, the body synthesises it from amino acids such as glycine, proline and hydroxyproline. Its biochemical characteristics include the fact that each helix chain has 338 uninterrupted repeats of a glycine-X-Y triplet, in which X is generally proline and Y is hydroxyproline. Collagen also contains hydroxylysine (González-Hernández, 2010).

Collagen is hydrolysed to improve its organoleptic properties (such as solubility), decrease its viscosity, its isoelectric point, and especially its oral bioavailability, which in the case of native collagen is very low (León-López et al., 2019).

Hydrolysis is a treatment that decreases the molecular weight of the conformational elements of the collagen protein, allowing low molecular weight oligopeptides to be obtained.

Magnesium

In the human body, 50-60% of magnesium is located in the bones […] adsorbed on the surface of the hydroxyapatite crystals that form the bone structure.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C acts as an electron donor (and cofactor) for eight human enzymes, three of which are involved in the biosynthesis (and cross-linking) of collagen and other connective tissue components.

Vitamin C is a co-enzyme for three different dioxygenase enzymes that catalyse the addition of hydroxyl groups to the amino acids proline and lysine of the collagen molecule to stabilise the triple helix.

Why buy Hydrolysed Collagen + Magnesium 2.0 from HSN?

High degree of hydrolysis

As previously established, hydrolysis of collagen is an important process for the increased bioavailability of the protein when administered orally.

The enzymatic hydrolysis process to which our hydrolysed collagen has been subjected allows the exposure of the structures of small amino acid bonds to the medium, by breaking the bonds that make up the cross-linked formations and the hydrolysis of the peptide bonds that make up each of the alpha chains.

A superior quality of collagen!

Bovine collagen

Collagen is normally obtained from fish, a source that produces a strong characteristic taste in hydrolysed collagen.

Instead, our collagen is bovine collagen, treated using collagenase enzymes to obtain it without the use of chemicals in acidic or alkaline environments that produce strong corrosion and salt concentration in the raw material produced.

Formula with magnesium and vitamin C

Our 2.0 formula has been supplemented with the mineral magnesium in the form of citrate salts and vitamin C (ascorbic acid).

Vitamin C contributes to the normal formation of the collagen helix cross-links, and is a great complement to this product.

And magnesium, in the form of the citrate salt, is a great supplement with high bioavailability of elemental magnesium that contributes to normal bone formation.

How to take Hydrolysed Collagen + Magnesium 2.0?

Take one level-filled (10g) scoop, once a day.
