What Type of Collagen is Used in OptiAge™ Collagen Powder?

OptiAge™ Collagen Powder contains Type 1 collagen, which is highly effective for supporting skin, joints, and overall vitality. Type 1 collagen, typically around 2000Da in size, is broken down into smaller peptides through hydrolyzation, enhancing its bioavailability and absorption. This process ensures maximum benefits, promoting skin elasticity, joint health, and improved overall well-being.

What is the difference between Decode Age marine collagen and other collagen products?

Decode Age’s OptiAge Collagen is <2000 Da hydrolysed marine collagen, which means it's broken down into much smaller peptides compared to traditional collagen products with larger molecular weights. This smaller size allows for higher absorption and better bioavailability, meaning your body can utilize collagen more efficiently even at a lower dose.

At just 5g, it is scientifically designed to provide optimal benefits for skin, hair, joints, and overall health. Even though the quantity is less, the absorption and effectiveness are significantly higher. In contrast, other collagen products with larger molecular sizes may require higher dosages to achieve similar effects due to lower absorption and bioavailability.

Why does Dalton size matter in collagen?

  • Absorption Efficiency:

Lower molecular weight (e.g., <2000 Da) collagen peptides are more easily absorbed in the gut and can quickly enter the bloodstream. Higher molecular weight peptides take longer to break down and may not be absorbed as efficiently.

  • Bioavailability:

Studies indicate collagen peptides with molecular weights around 2000-5000 Da provide effective benefits for skin, hair, and joints. Peptides with a molecular weight of 10,000 Da or higher are larger and may not be absorbed as effectively.

Should collagen dosage vary based on Dalton size?

Yes, collagen with a lower Dalton size is more bioavailable, meaning lower doses are sufficient. This means you need a smaller dose compared to higher Dalton collagen, which requires larger amounts for similar effects.

For example,

  • Low molecular weight collagen (1000-2000 Da): Requires 5-10 grams daily.

  • Higher molecular weight collagen (3000-10,000 Da): Requires 10-20 grams daily for similar benefits.
