Not all collagen is the same. Most collagen supplements are hydrolysed, meaning broken down into smaller pieces so your body can absorb them. But how small matters. Standard collagen sits at 5,000 Dalton or larger, and at that size a lot of it passes through your gut without being absorbed.
The collagen Lumeia uses, OmniCol™ 120, is broken down to under 2,500 Dalton. That is small enough to pass directly into your bloodstream, and a study confirmed it delivers significantly more collagen into the bloodstream than standard processing. It is hydrolysed bovine collagen (from cattle), made in the EU, Halal certified at ingredient level, with a full amino acid profile.
OmniCol™ 120 is the collagen in both products: 10,500mg in Complete Collagen (the treatment dose, coming soon) and 1,500mg in Thrive Protein (a daily complement). OmniCol™ is a trademark of Essentia Protein Solutions (BHJ A/S), Denmark.
