Background and Overview
Collagen peptides can be actively and unimpededly absorbed by the human body without digestion, and can be fully utilized by body tissues. In addition, the average molecular weight of marine collagen peptides is smaller, even consisting of only 2-4 amino acids, which is much smaller than ordinary peptides. Among collagen peptides, fish collagen peptides are the easiest to be absorbed in the human body because their protein structure is closest to that of the human body. Fish collagen peptides have a three-dimensional water-locking system of LOC elastic net, which will release a large number of water-locking groups in three dimensions for 12 hours to firmly lock the water supplied in the body to form a "dermal reservoir" to achieve a continuous moisturizing effect; fish collagen peptides repair broken and aged elastic fiber nets, reorganize the skin tissue structure, stretch wrinkles, remove free radicals in the body, and resist oxidation to slow down skin aging; fish collagen peptides can quickly fill the collapsed tissue and tighten the skin after entering the dermis, enhance elasticity, smooth fine lines, prevent and eliminate red blood; fish collagen peptides can make cells connect more tightly, speed up metabolism, promote the shedding of dead skin, inhibit the production of melanin and prevent deposition, make the skin white, and achieve the effect of lightening spots and whitening.
Efficacy
Existing research data at home and abroad show that fish collagen peptides have multiple physiological activities such as anti-oxidation, lowering blood pressure, and increasing body bone density.
1. Protecting vascular endothelial cells
Endothelial cell damage is considered to be a key link in the early stage of atherosclerosis (AS). Recent studies have shown that low-density lipoprotein (LDL) protein is cytotoxic, can cause endothelial cell damage, and promote platelet aggregation. Lin Lin et al. found that fish skin collagen peptides with a molecular weight in the range of 3 to 10kD have a certain protective and repair effect on vascular endothelial cell damage, and its effect increases with the increase of peptide concentration within a certain concentration range.
2. Antioxidant activity
The aging of the human body and the occurrence of many diseases are related to the peroxidation of substances in the body. Preventing peroxidation and removing the reactive oxygen free radicals produced by peroxidation in the body are the key to anti-aging. Studies have shown that collagen peptides can increase the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the blood and skin of mice, and enhance the body's scavenging effect on excessive free radicals.
3. Inhibit the activity of angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACEI)
Angiotensin I converting enzyme is a glycoprotein-binding enzyme containing zinc. It is a dipeptide carboxypeptidase that can convert angiotensin I into angiotensin II, which has a blood-raising effect. The latter further constricts blood vessels and causes blood pressure to rise. Fahmi et al.'s research showed that the peptide mixture obtained after hydrolysis of sea bream collagen has the activity of inhibiting angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACEI). After taking the mixed peptide, the blood pressure of rats with primary hypertension model decreased significantly.
4. Improve liver fat metabolism
A high-fat diet can cause metabolic abnormalities in tissues and organs, ultimately leading to lipid metabolism disorders and inducing obesity. Tian Xu et al.'s research showed that collagen peptides can reduce the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the liver of mice fed a high-fat diet, improve the liver's antioxidant capacity, and promote liver fat decomposition and metabolism, thereby improving lipid metabolism disorders and reducing fat accumulation in mice fed a high-fat diet.
Collagen peptides are rich in glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, which enhance the body's absorption of calcium. Regular consumption of collagen peptides can improve the strength of human bones and prevent osteoporosis. Clinical studies have also shown that taking 10g of fish collagen peptides per day can significantly reduce the pain of osteoarthritis.
Application
A beauty and skin care beverage, specifically a fish collagen peptide blueberry beverage. It is composed of the following raw materials by weight: fish collagen peptide, blueberry concentrate juice, resistant dextrin, rice bran oil powder, Agave ulmoides leaves, olive powder, black ginger powder, citric acid, DL-malic acid, vitamin C, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, potassium sorbate, mogroside, sucralose, and purified water. The selected raw materials of this beverage have the effects of detoxification, moisturizing the stomach, burning fat and slimming, protecting the liver, etc., and are more beneficial to health while resisting sugar and skin care; the selected sweeteners are sucralose and mogroside, both of which are sugar substitutes, not only with pure sweetness, but also zero calories, not afraid of obesity, and patients with cardiovascular disease and diabetes can drink it with confidence; most importantly, this beverage has the effects of anti-glycation, collagen supplementation, whitening, calming the nerves and helping sleep, moisturizing and moisturizing, and removing spots and whitening.
