Research findings suggest that collagen peptides, small pieces of animal collagen, help improve skin hydration and skin elasticity
It reflects the biochemistry of copper peptides in solution
Lower doses produce fewer side effects
31 Healthy cells are capable of generating a response to the bioactive molecules and produce appropriate extracellular matrix proteins, including collagen and proteoglycans
Besides the well-known polyphenols derived from fruit and vegetables, biologically active and useful substances have been identified in eggs: several egg white proteins, including ovalbumin, ovotransferrin, ovomucin, lysozyme, and avidin, as well as the peptides derived from the proteins, have been recognized for their functional importance as antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory agents and for their ACE-inhibitory activity (Yu et al
