Collagen.. What is it All About..?

Why Collagen? Why Yuvãfy and what is it all about… Take a look at our fabulous ingredients and see why our formulation is so perfect for a more radiant skin with visibly reduced fine lines and wrinkles and also for healthier and stronger hair and joints. There is a reason Yuvãfy is superior and why we are one of the best marine collagen supplements in the UK.

We have all heard the dictum:

“..we lose 1.5% year on year of our own natural collagen production from the age of 25. We have lost around 20% at age 40, a horrendous 50% in our 50s and a staggering 80% loss in natural collagen in our 60s..”

Good news is that a supplement taken daily can help but it has to be a good quality supplement and they are certainly not all created equal. Moving on to the sciency bit..

Let’s start with the superstar ingredient, Collagen, the most abundant protein in our body and makes up around 70% of the protein in our skin. Collagen is a molecule and important in skin, tendons, blood vessels, cartilage, bone and connective tissue, which anchors cells to each other.

Collagen supplements are mainly derived from either Bovine (cows) or Marine (fish) there are some new vegan options coming on the market but the jury is still out in terms of efficacy..

Studies suggest that Marine collagen is absorbed 1.5 times more efficiently into the body because of its small particles, which means it has superior bioavailability over bovine or porcine (pigs) collagen products.

Yuvãfy Ingredients list:

Hydrolysed Marine Collagen 10,000mg generally considered the optimal for efficacy: Marine collagen provides essential amino acids that support skin’s structural integrity, aiding in firmness, elasticity, and hydration for a youthful appearance.

In addition to the collagen, the formulation in Yuvãfy also incorporates a carefully selected blend of vitamins and hyaluronic acid, strategically chosen to further augment the overall benefits for skin health when taken as a daily supplement.

Hyaluronic Acid 40mg – optimal intake for assisting the skin, there is no general RI: Hyaluronic acid is a natural molecule that attracts and retains moisture, providing intense hydration to the skin. It helps plump and smooth the skin’s surface, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Vitamin C: Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from free radical damage, promotes collagen production for improved elasticity, and promotes a brighter complexion by reducing hyperpigmentation and dark spots.

Thiamine (B1): Thiamine supports skin health by assisting in the proper metabolism of nutrients, aiding in cellular energy production, and promoting a healthy complexion.

Riboflavin (B2): Riboflavin helps maintain skin health by contributing to the repair and maintenance of skin tissues, promoting a smooth skin texture, and assisting in the metabolism of fats.

Niacin (B3): Niacin supports the skin barrier function, enhances moisture retention, and improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It can also help manage inflammation and redness.

Vitamin B6: Vitamin B6 assists in regulating hormonal balance, which can contribute to the reduction of acne breakouts. It also supports overall skin health by aiding in metabolism and preventing dryness.

Folic Acid: Folic acid helps in repairing DNA and promoting cell turnover, contributing to healthy and vibrant skin. It also aids in preventing skin aging by combating oxidative stress.

Vitamin B12: Vitamin B12 supports skin health by aiding in cell reproduction, tissue repair, and the maintenance of a healthy skin tone. It can also help address issues related to skin pigmentation.

Biotin: Biotin is known for promoting healthy hair and nails, but it also contributes to skin health by supporting the renewal of skin cells and maintaining a clear complexion.

Pantothenic Acid (B5): Pantothenic acid is vital for skin health due to its role in promoting wound healing, reducing redness, and aiding in the maintenance of healthy skin barrier function.
