Collagen Detail

Collagen for:

  • Beautify your skin and hair

    Peptan reduces wrinkles, hydrates the skin and improves hair resistance

  • Optimize athlete performance

    Peptan reduces muscle pain and allows faster recovery after intense exercise

  • Improve your mobility

    Peptan improves overall joint functionality, reduces joint pain and improves flexibility.

What the science says

Collagen is the most abundant fibrous protein in the interstitial ECM and constitutes 30% of the body's proteins and 70% of the skin. It is found in all connective tissues, tendons, ligaments, bones, muscle, skin, hair and nails. Collagen helps maintain skin elasticity and joint mobility. It also serves as an anchor for calcium to bones and the formation of strong, functional muscles.

(a) The extracellular matrix (ECM) is present in all tissues and organs, and provides an essential physical scaffold for cellular constituents, and initiates biochemical and biomechanical signals necessary for morphogenesis, differentiation and homeostasis fabrics.

Effects of PEPTAN® on beauty

The beauty effects of Peptan have been observed in clinical studies:

Wrinkle reduction

  • 13% off around the eyes
  • 10% off around the mouth

Reduced collagen fragmentation

  • 31% reduction in collagen network fragmentation

Better skin hydration

  • 28% increase in skin hydration level

Improved hair resistance

  • 13% increase in hair resistance to breakage

PEPTAN® effects on recovery

Bioactive collagen peptides reduce recovery time after physical activity (likely via accelerated extracellular matrix repair)

In a pioneering study, Peptan collagen peptides were shown to accelerate recovery and alleviate muscle soreness after intense exercise*

  • 20% reduced muscle soreness (after intense exercise)*
  • 20% faster recovery after intense effort*

Effects of PEPTAN® on bone mineralization

Bones are dynamic, living, growing tissues composed of:

  • collagen: 90% protein which provides bones with their flexible framework.
  • calcium phosphate: deposited on the collagen framework, strengthens and stabilizes the bone.

Bone remodeling
 Throughout a person's life, old bone tissue is broken down (bone resorption by osteoclasts) and new tissue is added to the skeleton (bone formation by osteoblasts).

In healthy adults, bone turnover replaces about 15% of our bones per year. But as we age, bone resorption begins to outpace bone formation.

We can help maintain bone health with the right nutrients: along with vitamin D and calcium, collagen proteins are essential. In fact, studies* have shown that:

  • Peptan helps maintain bone mineral density and thus prevents bone loss
  • Peptan helps maintain bone strength and maintain healthy bone micro-architecture

Effects of PEPTAN® on joints

  1. Peptan reduces joint discomfort
  • 32% reduction in joint pain
  • 44% improvement in flexibility
  • 32% reduction in joint pain
  • 44% improvement in flexibility

2. Peptan Reduces Joint Inflammation

3. Peptan improves overall joint functionality by 22%

4. Peptan prevents joint degradation during osteoarthritis or injuries.

Why Daily Energy Collagen is Better for You

Demonstrated bioavailability

Daily Energy contains Peptan® collagen, a collagen in peptide form, highly available in the blood circulation just 60 minutes after ingestion.

Collagen, ingested in its raw state, cannot be assimilated by the body. (It is a helix made of 3 strands, not soluble). It must be reduced to peptides in order to cross the intestinal barrier. (By cutting the triple helix into smaller pieces, the peptides, the collagen become assimilable).

The more bioavailable the collagen, the more efficient its absorption by the body. Bioavailability is a prerequisite for collagen to be active.

Demonstrated bioactivity

Daily Energy contains bioactive Peptan® collagen. Once available in the bloodstream, collagen peptides exert an effect on the target tissue (skin, joint and muscle cells)

Excellent digestibility + efficient absorption = High bioavailability

Concentrated enough to claim an effect

Daily Energy® is highly concentrated in hydrolyzed collagen peptides, enabling its effectiveness.

Each Daily Energy sachet contains 10g of collagen. Why 10g? Because scientific studies have shown that supplementation with hydrolyzed collagen peptides leads to visible results on joint health, bone health and beauty at a dose of 10g.

Scientific studies

PEPTAN® is the only collagen on the market whose benefits for sports recovery have been proven by scientific studies.
