Fish Collagen
Fish Collagen is a natural protein derived from the skin, scales, and bones of various fish species through enzymatic hydrolysis or acid extraction. It is predominantly Type I collagen, known for its excellent bioavailability and biocompatibility. Fish Collagen typically appears as a fine white to off-white powder with low odor and high solubility in water and acidic solutions. It is widely prized in cosmetics, nutraceuticals, pharmaceuticals, and food industries due to its superior absorption compared to mammalian collagen, making it highly effective in skin, joint, and bone health applications. Fish Collagen supports the body’s extracellular matrix, promoting skin elasticity, hydration, and tissue repair.
