Collagen and Daily Supplements for Healthy Ageing

Ageing well is a long game, and the supplements that suit it are the ones you will still be taking in five years. This range gathers the daily staples (marine collagen, omega-3, a multivitamin and glutathione) in the sizes that make a daily habit affordable.

Collagen Essentials is the base: 100% hydrolyzed marine collagen peptides, predominantly Type I, in 150g, 200g and 500g. Multi Collagen Complex covers Types I, II, III, V and X in tablet form, for anyone who would rather not mix a powder every morning.

Why hydrolyzed collagen?

Hydrolysis breaks collagen down into short peptides. These dissolve cleanly in hot or cold liquid without setting the way gelatin does, and short peptides are absorbed more readily than whole collagen. Every NewYou collagen powder is made with hydrolyzed marine collagen.

Which size is the sensible buy?

The formulation is identical across sizes within a product, so you are only choosing quantity. If you have not tried it before, start with a smaller pack or the travel pack. If it is already part of your routine, the larger pouches last longer and cost less per serving.

Marine or bovine collagen?

Marine collagen comes from fish and is predominantly Type I, the type most associated with skin. Bovine collagen comes from cattle and contains more Type III. Marine peptides are also smaller on average, which is why they dissolve readily in hot or cold drinks.
