The Truth About Collagen: Source Matters More Than "Type"

In the vast sea of wellness and health products, collagen supplements stand out for their purported benefits to skin, bones, and overall vitality.

However, the market is awash with claims focusing on the superiority of different collagen types, such as Type II for joints or multi-collagen blends for comprehensive benefits.

Today, we’re setting the record straight: the source of collagen is significantly more critical than the type.

Understanding Collagen Types and Their Roles

Collagen is essential for maintaining skin, bones, and overall health. The most common types are:

  • Type I: Found in skin, bones, and connective tissues, crucial for skin elasticity and bone strength.
  • Type II: Makes up cartilage, important for joint health.
  • Type III: Present in skin, muscles, and blood vessels.

Many products emphasize these types, but the source of collagen is actually more crucial.

Why Source Is More Important Than Type

The source of collagen impacts its purity, safety, and bioavailability (how well your body absorbs it). Here's why withinUs™ TruMarine® Collagen stands out:

  • Purity and Safety: Sourced from wild-caught fish scales, it is less contaminated compared to land-based sources.
  • Bioavailability: Marine collagen, particularly TruMarine®, is absorbed 1.5 times more effectively than other types.
  • Environmental Impact: Sustainable practices protect ocean biodiversity, unlike cattle or poultry farming which harms the environment.

Debunking Misleading Claims

Some brands market multi-collagen blends, claiming more types equal more benefits. This is often just a marketing tactic. Multiple types from various sources can reduce the product's purity and effectiveness.

withinUs™ TruMarine® Collagen focuses on premium-select grade Type I collagen, ensuring high effectiveness without contaminants.

Conclusion: Make an Informed Choice

When choosing collagen supplements, prioritize the source over type. A high-quality, sustainably-sourced product like withinUs™ TruMarine® Collagen supports your health and the environment. Avoid being misled by marketing claims, and choose wisely for genuine benefits.

Choose wisely, choose sustainability.
