The protein collagen is one of the most important and basic building blocks within the human cell. It comprises about 30 % of the total protein of the human body and is found especially in connective tissue, i.e. in bone, teeth, cartilage, tendons and ligaments and in the skin. Food and nutritional supplements containing collagen are thus eminently suitable for improving the protein supply to the entire body.

Older people who don't get enough protein can help to maintain their muscle power by taking protein-containing products. Athletes and sports enthusiasts can also promote muscle build-up with protein. PEPTIPLUS^® is available to the food industry in the form of high-quality collagen peptides. These can ideally be combined with other vital proteins in special products.
