Collagen peptides contain the same exact set of amino acids and nutrients as collagen, but have undergone a process called hydrolysis to break them down into shorter chains of proteins called peptides. They are also referred to as hydrolyzed collagen or collagen hydrolysate.
Generally speaking, collagen peptides can be dissolved in both hot or cold water and, because of the hydrolysis process, are broken down and digested more easily in your stomach. They also typically have a high bioavailability, which means they can be absorbed into the bloodstream more readily than regular collagen protein.

We chose organic cane sugar to bring a deliciously sweet, tastes-like-candy Mixed Berry flavor to these collagen gummies. Organic cane sugar is generally known as sugar cane that hasn’t been treated with toxic pesticides or chemicals, with no artificial sweeteners.
The way your body absorbs collagen is impacted by the size of the collagen peptides; our formula uses hydrolyzed collagen, which simply means the collagen and amino acids are broken up into smaller units that are easy for your body to digest and use.
