A daily supplement that provides Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) and hydrolysed Marine Collagen to boost body collagen levels and improve tendon and ligament flexibility.
Suitable for
Individuals who want higher muscle mass
Collagen peptide supplement and strength training increases muscle mass and strength.
Individuals with osteoarthritis
Reduce symptoms of osteoarthritis such as stiffness and pain.
Individuals who have high sugar and refined carbs in their daily diet
Glycation process occurs with excess unused sugar, which can weaken and break down skin collagen and elastin fibers.
Smokers and people who live with smokers
Smoking reduces collagen production.
How long do I need to see the effectiveness?
According to feedback along with scientific research on daily collagen intake, changes can be seen and felt from around 4 – 6 weeks onwards. So it is advisable not to stop your collagen supplement if you aren’t seeing immediate results. Results may vary as each individual has a different collagen rate and storage.
How does Marine Collagen + ALA keep me active and mobile?
NutraVita Marine Collagen + ALA sustains our body’s collagen levels as it contains
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA)
A compound that enhances the synthesis of new collagen in normal human dermal fibroblasts. Well studied for its antioxidant properties in cytokine-induced inflammation.
Hydrolysed Collagen
Extracted from concentrated source of marine protein from deep sea fish such as cod. Widely known as collagen peptide and is used in the medical industry to assist in recovery for joint-related surgeries and therapies.
Capsule made from Plant Cellulose
Broken down easily in the gastrointestinal tract and absorbed easily into the bloodstream.
