Collagen, an important structural protein in the body, contributes to the integrity, elasticity and strength of skin, cartilage and bones. Collagen levels naturally decline from around 30 years old and hydrolysed collagen peptides play a key role in our cellular replenish and renewal process. Essential for positive-ageing beauty rituals and optimal daily wellbeing.

Clinical Trials
Wir setzen auf Kollagen von höchster Reinheit, Wirksamkeit und Bioverfügbarkeit. Unsere Produkte basieren auf fundierter wissenschaftlicher Forschung und erfüllen die höchsten Standards für Qualität und Effektivität.
In einer unabhängigen Studie wurde True Collagen hinsichtlich seiner Wirkung auf die ganzheitliche Gesundheit untersucht. Die Ergebnisse zeigen beeindruckende Verbesserungen für Haut, Haare, Nägel, Gelenke und die Verdauung.
In dieser doppelblinden, placebokontrollierten Studie mit 60 gesunden britischen Frauen (35–55 Jahre) wurden die umfassenden Vorteile einer 12-wöchigen Kollagen-Supplementierung belegt – mit Ergebnissen, die weit über klassische Beauty-Versprechen hinausgehen.
Die Studie wurde von einem unabhängigen Ethikkomitee genehmigt und entspricht den höchsten Standards der klinischen Forschung.

Hydrolysed Collagen Peptides
Collagen provides strength and integrity to the structural protein matrix found in skin, bones, ligaments, tendons and cartilage.
Collagen loss is a natural part of ageing which occurs from our 30’s and increase as we grow older. Our hydrolysed collagen peptides are a specific size (under 5000DA’s) for maximum absorption and efficient integration into targeted cells.
Unsere bahnbrechende klinische Studie zu True Collagen für ganzheitliche Gesundheit
Bei Ancient + Brave schätzen wir die Intelligenz der Natur und die Weisheit der Wissenschaft. Durch die Kombination der beiden entwickeln wir wirkungsvolle und effektive Wellness-Routinen für dein Wohlbefinden.
Our True Collagen contains hydrolysed collagen peptides which are a more available and absorbable form of amino acids, making it easy for our body to utilise. Collagen exists in nature as a very large, complex molecule constructed from lots of long chains of polypeptides. The collagen molecule itself is far too big to be absorbed across the gut wall, so it needs to be broken down during digestion into smaller chains called peptides. Once absorbed, these peptides are available to contribute to collagen renewal within bones, skin and connective tissue. ‘Hyrdolysed’ simply means ‘unchaining’ the long protein strands into smaller ‘peptides’ so we can absorb them more readily. This process is like having them ‘predigested’, making them more bioactive so we can take them up and absorb them easily to build important tissues.
IS TRUE COLLAGEN SAFE TO TAKE DURING PREGNANCY OR BREASTFEEDING?
You should always consult with your doctor or midwife regarding any new additions to your diet or supplements you take during your pregnancy and breastfeeding journey. Whilst there are also no studies available due to ethical challenges involving research in pregnant people, we aren’t aware of any contraindications in taking any of our products whilst pregnant or breastfeeding and they should be well tolerated.
WHEN SHOULD I START TAKING COLLAGEN?
Taking collagen can be beneficial at any age, but we know that the body’s ability to produce collagen naturally starts to decline in our early 20s. As we move past roughly 30 years old, it is thought that collagen depletes faster than our body can produce it. Therefore, you can begin taking collagen in your 20s to get ahead of the body’s natural depletion as you age, but you are more likely to see noticeable benefits from age 35+. Ultimately, the age you want to start taking collagen supplements is a personal decision. The Ancient + Brave team will be here to support you and guide you through your journey.
CAN YOU TAKE TOO MUCH COLLAGEN?
Collagen is a compound your body naturally produces, so there are no harmful side effects of taking too much per se, except potentially an upset stomach or bloating. There are no studies that show upping the doses will help you reach your health goals any faster, therefore sticking to the recommended daily intake is optimal.
The recommended daily dose of collagen is 5-15g, which is supported by most clinical studies. For most people, 5g is ideal. However, some individuals may benefit from a higher dose of 10-15g, such as those recovering from an injury, following a low-protein (e.g., vegetarian) diet, experiencing age-related collagen decline, or engaging in intensive physical activity.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MARINE AND BOVINE COLLAGEN?
There are a few key differences between marine and bovine collagen linked in our journal article here. Ultimately, marine collagen and bovine collagen are equally effective - both providing 100% hydrolysed type I collagen peptides. One is not better than the other, it’s more a matter of dietary preference. As long as the quality of the supplement is high then its source doesn’t really affect the benefits you receive.
IS COLLAGEN STILL EFFECTIVE WHEN ADDED TO HOT food or DRINKS
The simple answer is yes! Many foods lose their nutritional value when you heat them, but collagen powder is not one of them.. Collagen peptides are heat stable up to 300°C, a temperature far higher than normal cooking and baking. As water boils at 100°C, collagen can be mixed into hot drinks, soups and stews without weakening its benefits.
Is collagen supportive during the menopause?
Our menopause guide provides helpful information about the changes that occur in the body during perimenopause and menopause - and how collagen can offer support when navigating this chapter.
We understand every menopause journey is unique and symptoms can vary for each individual. Many of our blends feature nutraceuticals and botanicals that can help manage specific symptoms, all of which are broken down in the guide to help you choose the right product for your needs.
Does collagen survive stomach acid?
Stomach acid plays a very important role in breaking down protein and yet hydrolysed collagen peptides are unlikely to be digested in the stomach at all and instead go to the small intestine to be absorbed. Enzymes in the small intestine work at breaking down chains of protein molecules called peptides into even shorter peptides and amino acids which can then be absorbed in the bloodstream. The peptides and aminos will be added to the amino acid pool and trigger the body to produce new collagen.
I have already recommended true collagen sachets to my friends and colleagues.
One is already talking about trying them for herself as she can see how taking collagen has improved my overall health.

Sachets need scissors!
I've only given a 3 star because I need scissors to open the sachets! They do rip but only down the middle so quite messy when transferred into a drink! I prefer sachets for travel but don’t really want to carry scissors!!
The product itself dissolves very easily and is tasteless as described! Will await results :-)

Great product but ditch the packaging!
The product itself is amazing however A&B can do better on the packaging- too much boxing! That is not what I would consider sustainable…
