Who is HEKA Collagen Shot 5.000 for?
TheHEKA Collagen shot is intended for anyone after the age of 20, as this is when the body's own collagen production starts to decline. It is recommended for anyone who overloads the musculoskeletal system and who puts strain on the knees during sport or work. A lack of collagen can cause the following problems: loss of skin elasticity, wrinkles, thin and brittle hair, hair loss, joint problems, muscle weakness, thin and brittle nails. The addition of collagen peptides in the form of Naticol, a patented form of hydrolysed fish collagen, and hydrolysed bovine collagen will ensure toned skin with fewer wrinkles, a more even skin tone and beautiful hair and nails.
Frequently asked questions
Why choose HEKA Collagen shot?
HEKA Collagen Shot is the perfect choice for anyone who wants to improve the appearance of their skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
Are all collagens of the same quality?
No, not all collagens are of the same quality. HEKA Collagen Shot contains, among other things, a patented form of hydrolysed collagen called Naticol, which has been shown in studies to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and improve skin tone with as little as 2.5g per day.
Why is hyaluronic acid added?
Hyaluronic acid is known as a skin moisturiser, which helps to plump skin with fewer wrinkles.
How effective is HEKA Collagen shot?
Studies on Naticol collagen ensure its effectiveness. The added active ingredients, such as vitamin C for even better collagen building and hyaluronic acid for extra hydration, further enhance the product's effect.
How HEKA Collagen Shot 5.000 works
Fish and bovine collagen
Crucially, collagen types I and III are a major component of skin, hair, nails, muscles, tendons, ligaments, bones, gums, teeth, eyes and blood vessels. Together, these two types of collagen make up more than 90 per cent of the collagen found in the body. Fish collagen falls under type I collagen and is a popular choice in the health and beauty industry as it can be absorbed up to 1.5 times more efficiently. Beef collagen contains collagen types I and III, which are the best types of collagen to consume when it comes to exercise and muscle recovery.
After the age of 20, the dermis layer produces 1% less collagen each year. This is a natural ageing process known as intrinsic ageing. As we age, collagen and elastin fibres become thinner and looser, which means our skin becomes less elastic, eventually leading to wrinkling and sagging. The loss of collagen affects our appearance and well-being.
Hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid helps to maintain skin elasticity, skin health and a youthful appearance. A 2017 study in the Journal of Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine reported promising results when participants took a hyaluronic acid supplement that also contained biotin, vitamin C, copper and zinc. The study showed that 20 women aged 45 to 60 years had a significant reduction in their vitamin C levels after 40 days of supplementation:
- improved skin elasticity,
- improved skin texture,
- reducing the depth of wrinkles,
- 24% increase in skin hydration.
General about collagen
Collagen is the most abundant protein in our body, accounting for between 25 and 30% of all proteins in the body, about a third of the body's composition, and 80% of the dermis.
It is found in cartilage, skin, teeth, nails, muscle tendons, organ walls and hair. There are 16 types of collagen, with types I, II and III making up 80%-90% of the collagen in the body. The most abundant collagen in the body is type I collagen.
HEKA Collagen is hydrolysed, which means that a hydrolysis process is used in its production, whereby the collagen is broken down into smaller basic building blocks called peptides. Peptides are more easily broken down into their basic building blocks - amino acids - in the digestive tract and are consequently more easily absorbed.
Types of collagen
The most important function of collagen in tissues is to provide strength.
TYPE I COLLAGEN is present in tendons, ligaments and bones, where it forms strong fibrous tissues (like a rope) because ligaments and tendons have to withstand strong tension. This type of collagen is also part of the skin. It is most abundant in marine sources (fish) and is also present in pork and beef.
TYPE II COLLAGEN is most commonly found in cartilage, where it forms dense networks of very thin fibres as the cartilage is subjected to pressure from all sides. It is most abundant in poultry and beef (cartilage).
TYPE III COLLAGEN is the second most abundant collagen in tissues. It is mainly found in tissues with elastic properties, such as skin, lungs, intestinal walls and blood vessel walls, but is also present in bone, cartilage, dentin (coating on teeth), tendons and other connective tissues. It is found in pork, together with type I collagen, and in beef (particularly abundant in the skin).
