What is hydrolyzed collagen peptides (type i & iii)?
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body — the structural foundation of skin, joints, tendons, bones, and connective tissue. Hydrolyzed collagen (also called collagen peptides) is collagen that has been broken down into shorter amino acid chains through a process called hydrolysis, making it water-soluble and significantly easier for the body to absorb. Unlike gelatin, which gels when cooled, hydrolyzed collagen peptides dissolve in hot or cold liquids and have a neutral flavor.
Where is it sourced?
BUBS Collagen is sourced exclusively from grass-fed, pasture-raised bovine hides. Grass-fed animals produce collagen with a higher concentration of glycine and proline — the key amino acids your body uses to synthesize its own collagen. Pasture-raised bovine are not raised on grain-heavy diets or given unnecessary growth hormones, which aligns with BUBS’ clean label commitment.
How to use it
Collagen peptides are unflavored and dissolve easily in hot or cold liquid — coffee, smoothies, water, or any recipe. One scoop (20g) per day provides 18–20g of collagen protein and the full amino acid profile for collagen synthesis support.
