Doctor's Best - Collagen Types 1 & 3 + vit C - 180 Capsules - 1000Mg
Support your skin at the cellular level. Collagen a protein found in connective tissue that's essential to skin growth and repair declines with age, but supplements can help fight wrinkles and aid in the repair of aging skin.
Hydrolyzed for optimal absorption, Doctor's Best Pure Collagen Types 1 & 3 Powder harnesses the powerful synergy of two collagen forms to help boost skin health. Type 1 is a building block of connective tissue, lending skin strength and resiliency, while Type 3 is found in cardiovascular tissue and newly developing skin. Together, their amino acids support skin rejuvenation, maintenance, and integrity. Go on and glow.

What is Doctor’s Best Collagen Powder?
Doctor's Best Collagen Types 1 & 3 contains pure collagen protein enzymatically hydrolyzed into component amino acids for optimal utilization by the body. Vitamin C, an essential co-factor required for collagen synthesis1, is featured in the capsule and tablet forms of this formula. For quality and safety due to possible separation of ingredients, Vitamin C is not included in Doctor's Best Collagen Types 1 & 3 Powder; therefore, supplementing with a daily Vitamin C product (such as Doctor's Best Vitamin C) when using Doctor's Best Collagen Types 1 & 3 Powder is recommended.
What is Collagen?
Collagen is a long, fibrous protein that makes up the matrix of connective tissue. (Connective tissue consists of relatively few cells in a generous matrix, which is the ground substance and fibers between cells). The mesh of fibers formed by adjoining collagen molecules in tissues contributes to its structural and strength-giving properties2. Collagen is arranged in a triple helix, lending sturdiness and integrity to the fiber matrix. Collagen molecules are particularly rich in the amino acids glycine, proline, hydroxylysine, and hydroxyproline—the latter two of which are rarely found in proteins other than collagen.3 While several other amino acid residues are contained within collagen, these four amino acids comprise over 50% of its structure.
What is Hydrolyzed collagen?
Collagen is characterized by its high content of glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, amino acids found to exert beneficial effects. However, to exert beneficial effects collagen must be well absorbed and bioavailable. Several studies have shown that hydrolyzed collagen is both well absorbed and bioavailable. A randomized, blinded, cross-over study with ten healthy male subjects receiving hydrolyzed collagen or placebo found that ingestion of collagen hydrolysates increases plasma concentrations of amino acids and enzymatic hydrolysis, the method used to produce Doctor's Best collagen, increases the absorption rate and bioavailability.
A similar study found hydroxyproline (Hyp)-containing peptides in human blood after collagen hydrolysate ingestion. Another study compared hydrolyzed and unhydrolyzed bovine collagen, finding that hydrolyzed collagen showed greater resistance to GI digestion and greater transport efficiency than the unhydrolyzed collagen control. Other researchers examined human absorption of ingested hydrolyzed collagen peptides, concluding that tripeptides, such as those hydrolyzed from collagen, are absorbed efficiently by the body.10 And a study found hydroxyproline-containing dipeptides and tripeptides at high concentrations in human blood after ingestion of collagen hydrolysate, indicating that the collagen hydrolysate was well-absorbed.
Key Health Benefits of Doctor's Best Collagen Powder
Skin elasticity and Hydration
According to studies, Oral ingestion of collagen hydrolysate (collagen peptides) at 10 g daily (Source: EuropePMC) has been shown to increase skin hydration, improve skin texture and quality, and improve skin elasticity, which can help skin elasticity with aging and reduce wrinkles and fine lines. The results were explicitly seen in people aged 50 and above and have taken it for at least 60 days (Source: EuropePMC).
Hair Health
A study conducted on 44 healthy women aged 39 to 75 years old received 2.5 g Collagen peptides for 16 weeks. After this period, results showed increased hair follicle cells, which suggest that it may help regenerate damaged hair follicles. There was also an increase in hair thickness which could help the hair become stronger and more resistant to breakage (Source: Nutrafoods)
Joint Pain & Inflammation
Oral ingestion of collagen hydrolysate at 10g daily for six months in patients with osteoarthritis significantly reduced localized pain. Theoretically, anyone experiencing joint pain coupled with inflammation may benefit from supplementing daily with 10g of collagen protein. Furthermore, oral ingestion of Collagen increases blood levels of bioactive peptides, which stimulates a cell type (fibroblasts) that produces a specific molecule called hyaluronic acid (HA). This molecule is a prominent product in the cosmetic industry and skin healthcare (Source: NCBI & NCBI).
