Plusvive - Collagen and Hyaluronic Acid with Biotin, Zinc, and MSM, 180 Capsules

The ageing process sees the body producing progressively less collagen starting at 20 years of age at the rate of 1% loss per year. Supplements on the market mostly contain hydrolysed collagen, which is easier to absorb. The rationale is that our bodies break down consumed protein into amino acids that are reassembled once digested. The hydrolysation process breaks down large proteins into smaller amino acids which are easier to absorb into the bloodstream. Further on, to support collagen synthesis, Vitamin C is paramount. Taking supplemental collagen has many health benefits, and as a mid-aged woman, I am excited about most of them, especially skin and muscle building. Some of these are Joint health, Bone loss prevention; Less fat accumulation; a Healthy heart; Strong nails and teeth. Why I am taking collagen supplements for: Skin elasticity: Skin contains approximately 75% collagen. One study found that women who took collagen daily reported improved skin elasticity and increased skin hydration. Wrinkle reduction: Due to the ageing process age, our skin will start wrinkling and sagging. Studies in women between the ages of 35 and 65 have found that supplementing daily with collagen over 12 weeks improved skin firmness, with less visible wrinkles. Building muscle mass: The ageing process initiates muscle loss along with other processes in the body. A 2019 study discovered that combining strength training exercises and daily collagen supplementation supported muscle building and maintained muscle mass over time. I work out 5/6 times weekly and need proper nutrition to sustain advanced exercise regimes. Many studies reflect that one must take this for a minimum of 8 weeks to feel the effects. However, I think this works for me as I started my collagen supplementation approximately three weeks ago. I will continue taking collagen supplements and evaluate their efficiency later. I am happy with the quality of the product and its benefits. I had no heartburn or side effects from using this every day. It is easy to swallow, and I recommend it for many reasons, such as being vegan and not containing any chemical additives or GMO ingredients. The capsules are of regular size, and it is recommended to take two capsules daily with breakfast. At 180 capsules per tub, this will last me three months, which is fantastic for the price. I have tried syrup and powder collagen, but this is the most affordable collagen supplement I found. Please do your research when contemplating a new supplement, and if in doubt, ask your GP for advice. Overall, I recommend this product!

Plusvive - Collagen and Hyaluronic Acid with Biotin, Zinc, and MSM I have been taking collagen as a supplement for a few years now, I have definitely seen the benefits to both my hair and skin. Collagen is available in powder, liquid, tablet and capsule form. This particular product is in capsule form which I find more convenient to take than powder. Liquid is my preferred form of Collagen but that does tend to be far more expensive, whereas these capsules are much more affordable when on a tight budget. The bottle contains 180 capsules, these need to be taken with a meal along with liquid. The daily dose is to take 2 capsules each day which essentially provides a 3 month supply. Collagen is known as the glue of the body and is important for skin, hair, bones, in fact most of your body. As we age our bodies produce less collagen which can result in thin and weak skin and hair, along with poor bone health, so a daily supplement can help correct that deficiency. This product not only contains Collagen it also includes other important ingredients which are the following: Vitamin C, Biotin, Zinc, Collagen, Hyaluronic Acid, Horsetail Extract and MSM. It's good to see there are no nasty ingredients in this like Magnesium Stearate which is something I try to avoid if possible. I do like that there is 3 months supply here at an affordable price. If a person is ageing and their skin condition is deteriorating then a regular supplement of Collagen may well help improve the skin, hair and bone condition. CONTENTS: 180 x Capsules Thank you for reading my review, I hope you have found it helpful.

The capsules are typical size and easy enough to swallow. It is made out of bovine gelatine so won’t be suitable for vegetarians or vegans. However, numerous product page photos talk of it being vegan and galatine free - the dangers of copy and pasting product page information and graphics? Misleading as this most definitely does have gelatine in it! You are getting 180 here and if you stick to the recommended serving size of one then they will last you around 6 months. Pretty good value for money. You get a decent expiry date so more than enough time to use this supplement up. Certainly one to consider but vegans and vegetarians looks elsewhere!

I usually take collagen in powder form and this can be an expensive way to take it. These collagen capsules are a very low price, at under ten pounds. They have the added benefit of hyaluronic acid, which works with the collagen by providing a moisture rich environment, where collagen can stretch without breaking. This can help one's skin to have the elasticity we want. Hyaluronic acid also helps with wound healing, tissue repair, chapped lips, dry scalp issues, gums and even the moisture level of our eyes. Each capsule supplies 500 mg of pure collagen, which is much less than I get when I take collagen powder. So, even if you take 2 tablets a day, you only get 1000mg dose of collagen per day. Various studies have shown that the body needs at least 5,000 - 10,0000mg of collagen supplementation per day to show visible results within a 6-12 week period... so 2 tablets a day is too small a dose to have any substantial impact. There is also 75 mg of hyaluronic acid, along with horse tail extract, acerola extract, zinc, biotin. Two capsules are suggested... so this bottle will last around three months. Looking at other collagen capsules online, many supply around the same amount of collagen and some are a lot more expensive, so this source is good value. The capsules are not too big and are easily swallowed, although it is best to drink plenty of water when taking. Personally, I will continue with the collagen powder form, but take these now and again in between powders. Please note... these capsules are not suitable for vegetarians

I’ve been taking collagen for a few months now and love it. I’m in my 50s and so I’m in need as we manufacture less and less from the age of 20. I’ve tried powders, Tablets and liquids. I’ve tried bovine and marine. I like the tablets. For me they are very convenient and these are easy to swallow. They contain no nasties of fillers which is great. They do contain vitamin c to support collagen synthesis, and Hyaluronic acid which I’m also a big fan of. Since I’ve been taking collagen I’ve noticed my hair skin and nails have been better. Facially my skin looks less tired and less dull. I’m hoping the Hyaluronic acid will also keep it looking hydrated and help with fine lines too. I exercise every day walking and doing free weights, and my energy levels seem much better and my recovery rate is also better. My weight has also become very stable. They are made in Germany in an acredited laboratory. I believe this is a good product that is well made and is very good value. Would recommend.

Plusvive is an amazing company that offers collagen and hyaluronic acid with biotin, zinc, and MSM. The product is easy to use and convenient. I love that I can take this supplement every day to help slow the aging process. Plusvive is also a great company because they are so environmentally friendly. They use eco-friendly packaging and make sure that the production of their product does not harm the environment. I love that I can take these supplements to help my skin look younger and feel more comfortable.

Very upset that no other reviewer nor the manufacturer have mentioned that the collagen in these capsules are sourced from Bovine (commonly Cow). I'm Hindu and the cow is a sacred animal therefore I don't consume cow derived gelatine or collagen (in this particular case). The entire listing used varying spelling for the word "collagen" and in the end, the listed ingredients do not match what's on the bottle itself. Furthermore, no other reviewer thought it was important to note whether the collagen was marine or bovine which is important in terms of the type of collagen you end up having in your body (type 1, 2, 3 etc). I recommend others to read carefully and ask any questions important to you before you part with your coin.

Made in Germany, these Collagen caps are only £11.22 for 180 caps which is around 3months supply, making these totally cheap to buy. Each cap contains 500mg of collagen which is on stronger than most of the products out in the market. On top of that, there is added, MSM, Hyaluronic Acid which is also great for Joints, and helps Collagen to boost its usefulness. Cap itself is easy to swallow, with no distinctive taste. Recommended dosage of 2 caps a day isnt bad compared to some which requires like 5caps a day. Overall a great cheap collagen supplement to take.
