KEY COLLAGEN, 525g

DESCRIPTION

Key Collagen is an unflavored blend of collagen peptides to support healthy skin, bones, and joints.  Collagen makes up a significant component of many tissues such as tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and bone. This concentrated dietary source of collagen is an excellent choice to support a host of health benefits including:

  • Healthy skin appearance
  • Strong nails
  • Flexible and strong joints
  • Strong bones
  • Healthy ligaments and tendons

Healthy Bones

Bone is a mixture of minerals held in collagen. Without collagen, bone minerals would be extremely brittle and prone to breakage.

Healthy Joints

Collagen peptides in Key Collagen help the regeneration of joint cartilage, making joints smoother and more mobile.

Healthy Skin

Those who supplement with Key Collagen may experience firmer and smoother skin and fewer wrinkles and cellulite.

Healthy Tendons

Supplementing with Key Collagen may decrease the risk of injury while improving flexibility.

Key Points of
Collagen

1. Collagen is a crucial component of our hair, skin, nails, bones, joints, and ligaments.

2. Our bodies produce less collagen as we age, leading to thinning hair, deep wrinkles, joint pain, and weak bones, which is why supplementing with Key Collagen is vital.

3. Key Collagen is unflavored and mixes easily with water, coffee, tea, and protein smoothies.

Four Patented bio-active Collagen Peptides
Using all five types of collagen: Type I, II, III, V and X

Key Collagen is hydrolyzed and contains collagen types 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10.

Key Collagen contains four patented Bioactive Collagen Peptides; Fortigel®, Fortibone®, Tendoforte®, and Verisol®. These collagen peptides are designed to promote vibrant skin and nails while also supporting healthy joints, bones, ligaments, and tendons.

Fortigel® promotes joint health. Fortibone® promotes bone health. Tendoforte® promotes healthy ligaments and tendons. Verisol® supports skin and nail health.

Key Collagen FAQs

Key Collagen is hydrolyzed, which means the collagen is broken down into specific protein fragments called peptides. Collagen peptides are short chains of amino acids that are more readily broken down into a form that can enter the bloodstream upon digestion. Read below for more information on peptides.

Key Collagen contains collagen types 1, 2, 3, 5, and 10. Then we also add in high concentrations of the specific collagen peptides Fortigel, Fortibone, Tendoforte, and Verisol for very specialized additional benefits for cartilage, connective tissue, bone, and skin.

We test for heavy metals in every batch. We use only free range cattle from Germany, which doesn’t have the same heavy metal concerns that we have in the United States. 

Our collagen is processed at body temperature to assure no denaturing takes place of the protein/amino acids. We boil the collagen under a vacuum at body temperature to remove the fat that contains the stored toxins while not damaging the specific protein peptides.

 

The Key Collagen Difference: Peptides vs Amino Acid Profile

The bottom line is that the amino acid profile is not the best indicator of a good collagen. You need amino acids in a specific sequence to get the benefits you are looking for. Amino acids on their own do not make up tissue. Amino acids in a specific sequence make up specific types of tissue. The sequences are more important than the quantity of each individual amino acid. Key Collagen contains high concentrations of the specific collagen peptides Fortigel, Fortibone, Tendoforte, and Verisol for very specialized additional benefits for cartilage, connective tissue, bone, and skin.

Look for collagens that call out the types of collagen and any specific peptides they are using, so you know what areas of the body the product is meant to target. If a company doesn’t call out which peptides are included, you can assume the product is made up of one or two types of the cheaper peptides. These products might be great for hair or skin, but they will not satisfy the variety of collagen needs your body has – eg hair, skin, nails, bones, ligaments, and tendons.

Key Collagen was put together using clinical research to understand the doses of peptides needed to deliver the results we were looking for. We are confident that Key Collagen contains enough of the right material to support the body’s vast collagen needs. This is not just the normal hair, skin, and nail collagen. It does those things, but also supports the digestive tract lining, skin elasticity, joint health, placenta health, tendon and ligament strength, and bone strength and flexibility.

Collagen Everyday

Once you understand collagen and how it supports your body, it should be considered an EVERGREEN supplement, as in one that is taken every day for life. 100% soluble, in the coffee, no taste, no texture change, no debate!
I suggest you study the type of "Peptides" they use and their benefit, and you will never look back.

Love the product, which they didn't waste so much space in a large container

Love the product and an easy way to add protein to my coffee. I don't taste it after I still it in. What frustrates me is when they waste so much space in such a large container. When I opened it after receiving it there was about 1/3 of wasted space in the container. The container is also so large and takes up so much space in the cupboard that I keep it on the counter which I don't like (maybe that is their marketing plan). I'm sure they want us to think we are getting a good "deal" with the size of the container but opening it just makes me realize my not. the Nutrikey products speak for themselves in the quality of them, save the space both in the container and on the counter!

Good Product

The Fortibone ingredient to increase bone density included in the Key Collagen has solid research behind it. Been using it almost a year, will determine for myself next year if it has benefited me. Would like for it to also include Tryptophan, but not a deal breaker. Enjoy it in my coffee every morning.

We are so glad to hear you are having success...be sure to come back next year and let us know your thoughts!
