As such it was viewed as a less than ideal protein source.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nowadays, this focus has shifted significantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We now focus more on regulating food metabolism for optimal long-term health benefits and addressing specific needs posed by ageing and exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When collagen is consumed in the form of bioactive collagen peptides, the metabolism of target cells is stimulated more effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The result?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More effective production of matrix proteins in both normal and healing collagen-rich tissues such as bones, tendons, ligaments, skin &amp; cartilage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion_Collagen_is_an_excellent_protein_supplement\"><\/span>Conclusion: Collagen is an excellent protein supplement.<br><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Myth_2_CERTAIN_COLLAGEN_TYPES_ARE_BETTER_THAN_OTHERS\"><\/span><strong>Myth #2: CERTAIN COLLAGEN TYPES ARE BETTER THAN&nbsp;OTHERS<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To date, there are over 28 types of known collagen.

Found in our bones, ligaments, tendons, skin &amp; fibrous cartilage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Type II: Found in our hyaline cartilage. Most commonly, in our ribs, nose, larynx and trachea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Collagen is broken down into the needed bioactive collagen peptide in the body, regardless of the original collagen type.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion_There_is_no_difference\"><\/span>Conclusion: There is no difference.&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Myth_3_BIOACTIVE_COLLAGEN_PEPTIDES_DO_NOT_SURVIVE_ENZYMATIC_DIGESTION\"><\/span><strong>Myth #3: BIOACTIVE COLLAGEN PEPTIDES DO NOT SURVIVE ENZYMATIC DIGESTION&nbsp;<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Body bioavailability depends on two factors: enzymatic digestion &amp; gut absorption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enzymatic digestion.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Does enzymatic digestion destroy bioactive collagen peptides?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The short answer. No.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Collagen peptides are remarkably rich in proline \u2013 25% of total collagen peptides is proline.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, why is proline unique?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Proline when compared to other amino acids, have stronger peptide bonds. This makes it harder for enzymes to break them down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Absorption<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Collagen peptides have a unique peptide chain structure which makes them narrower &amp; stiffer than globular proteins (helix-shaped). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This needle-like structure appears to allow for easier absorption across the gut barrier even when not completely broken down into amino acids.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recent evidence shows that high-molecular-weight peptides and even small proteins can be absorbed to an extent.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10% of bioactive collagen peptides remains intact after digestion, making them more bioavailable&nbsp;for absorption and the stimulation of connective tissue cell metabolism.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other 90% is digested into amino acids.
