Our 100% plant-based collagen Plantagenix Vollatin-C uses the key ingredient VollagenTM, which is superior to marine or bovine collagen for several reasons. First and foremost, it contains all 19 essential amino acids needed for collagen production and matches the complete amino acid composition of human collagen making it highly compatible and efficient. The amino acids within Vollatin-C are free-form, it does not need any digestion and is thus, in its most digested form. Vollatin-C enhances your collagen experience with superior bioavailability. By formulating it with synergistic ingredients such as Biotin and vitamin C, we've created an entourage effect that enables Vollatin-C collagen to work more efficiently within your body. This means you can expect enhanced results for your skin, hair, and nails when you choose Vollatin-C. Elevate your collagen supplementation journey with Vollatin-C, where ethical sourcing, scientific credibility, and enhanced effectiveness converge for your benefit.
Animal Collagen consists of 3 strings of amino acids, in the shape of a triple helix, making them more difficult to be broken down and thus are poorly absorbed by the human gut.
Plantagenix Vollatin-C has a molecular size of 112 Dalton, which is significantly smaller than that of Animal Collagen, which in its natural form is around 300,000 Dalton. A Dalton is a small unit of mass used to express atomic and molecular masses. The smaller the molecular size, the more bioavailable it is, as it can be more easily broken down and absorbed by the blood stream.
Further to this, Plantagenix Vollatin-C is more potent than collagen peptides or hydrolysed collagen. Animal source collagen usually uses a technique called hydrolysis, to ‘cut’ the collagen molecules into smaller fragments, called peptides. In the human body, these will be further broken down so the body can use these individual amino acids to build proteins such as collagen.
Vollatin-C stands out as a superior option due to its unique ability to bypass the entire digestive process and immediately supply the body with ready-to-use building blocks.
Unlike hydrolysed animal collagen, which only provides a few amino acids such as Glycine and Hydroxyproline, Vollatin-C ensures a more efficient absorption rate for all essential amino acids. While the process of hydrolysing collagen partially addresses the issue of poor digestibility by supplying important amino acids, it falls short when compared to Feel Pro Collagen's comprehensive amino acid profile.
It is also important to note, animal sources are not as sustainable and are much more likely to be contaminated with pesticides, heavy metals, and toxins. These are dangerous and can cause an array of health problems when consumed. (An Overview of Carcinogenic Heavy Metal: Molecular Toxicity Mechanism and Prevention) Plantagenix Vollatin-C's innovative formulation offers a significant advantage, delivering a full spectrum of amino acids directly to the body, without relying on incomplete digestion processes. This remarkable feature sets Plantagenix Vollatin-C apart as a superior choice for those seeking optimal collagen supplementation.
