Collagen Body (Joints + Bones)

When it comes to optimising nutritional intake, we are always striving for perfection. As new science and ingredients become available to us, we make it our mission to embed this into our range.

We’re excited to share that we’ve reformulated and rebranded one of our top-selling products - to make it even more effective. Formerly known as Collagen Body, our new and improved Collagen Joints + Bones has been designed to better support joint and bone health, with enhanced strength, mobility and repair.

We’ve changed the name to better reflect the product benefits. But the fun doesn’t stop there. We've also made some recipe improvements with your wellness in mind! The calcium content has been reduced to ensure it's suitable for everyone, especially since calcium is easily sourced from a balanced diet.

Additionally, we’ve adjusted the serving size from 18 grams to 14 grams, which means more servings per canister, while still delivering the health benefits of our specialised collagen, Fortigel.

*Please note: The 225g size is still our Collagen Body formulation, but it will transition to Collagen Joints + Bones in the coming months.

Collagen is a protein that is found throughout the body, providing structure and support to tissues such as skin, bones, tendons, ligaments, and cartilage. Collagen body combines the benefits of collagen with calcium and vitamin D to support bone health.

That depends entirely on what your goals and priorities are, as each of our collagen powders contains different bioactive collagen peptides that have different functions in the body. We have also added some specific key nutrients to each that further support and target those functions and make them even more specialised; Collagen Beauty targets skin hair and nails, Collagen Joints + Bones targets bone and Collagen Build targets muscle.For example, If you are concerned with wrinkles and skin hydration, Collagen Beauty is the one for you! If you are concerned with bone density or have recently injured yourself and fractured a bone, then Collagen Joints + Bones is the one for you! If you are focusing on building strength and lean muscle mass then Collagen Build is the one for you!

Collagen Body contains type I and type III collagen. These two types of collagen are the most abundant types present in connective tissue within the human body such as in hair, skin, nails, bones, joints, muscle and ligaments.

At Nutra Organics, our vision is to deeply nourish 10M people, while being kind to the planet in the process. As with all of our ingredients, we are only using the most sustainable collagen available.For years we have proudly sourced our bovine collagen through Gelita, a global German publicly listed business founded in 1875, who have established themselves as a global leader in the production of scientifically researched collagen and who have been able to provide us with the strong sustainability assurances for bovine collagen. Gelita’s status as a publicly listed company also ensures a high standard of governance and controls.

Our bovine collagen is sourced from Brazil and Germany, upcycling the parts of the agriculture industry that would otherwise go to waste. Gelita have strict legal agreements in place with their suppliers, whereby raw materials are only accepted from farms that meet the highest animal welfare standards, and any farms located in protected land or Indigenous areas are strictly prohibited.For more information, see the attached sustainability statement from Gelita regarding collagen sourced from Brazil, plus Gelita’s most recent 2022 sustainability report.

Yes, our collagen is predominantly sourced from grass fed cows. We buy our collagen from a reliable and reputable supplier based in Germany, named Gelita. This company is one of the market leaders in the collagen industry and has one of the highest industry standards and scientific studies to warrant safety and efficacy. Due to the weather conditions in Germany, the grass fed cattle are fed supplemental feed occasionally due to severe weather conditions, to ensure their survival.

We do not recommend taking more than one collagen product at a time. More is not always better. If you would like to target multiple body systems, we recommend taking turns with which collagen product you use. The scientific studies that demonstrated the effectiveness of each of the collagens was done by using just one of the specialised bioactive collagen peptides, every day for the trial period (usually between 8-12 weeks). So we recommend doing the same thing (for example, you may want to take Collagen Beauty for 12 weeks to help strengthen and hydrate skin over winter, then focus on Collagen Build for 12 weeks to build and strengthen lean muscle over spring). Taking more Collagen won’t cause harm (as it is a food product that is generally considered safe) but there is only so much protein synthesis and metabolism that you can do in a day. Also, consuming too much of anything isn’t a good idea, as it takes the place of other foods in the diet which may reduce the variety of foods that you have in your day. A healthy varied diet is always the best!
