Marine Collagen (Fish Collagen)

Collagen is the main structural protein that forms our body's connective tissue, such as bone, skin, cartilage, and tendons. It is widely believed that if humans ingest collagen from outside sources, it will optimize our health and support physiological needs posed by aging and exercise. Some studies have found that taking oral collagen supplements may "increase skin elasticity, hydration, and dermal collagen density," all things that decrease as we age. Marine, or fish, collagen comes from the skin of fish. It can help you bring your levels up. You may already take supplements or use cosmetics with collagen in them. In most of these products, the collagen comes from pig and cow skins.
