The ageing process is natural and cannot be avoided. However, there are factors that expediate the propensity of our ageing. Mechanical and physical stress (chemical pollution, ultraviolet radiation, poor nutrition, restricted sleep & psychological stress) all lead to free radical damage that compromises our skin’s dermal layer and its ability to repair. This oxidative stress involves a reduced production of antioxidants, increased inflammatory responses, generation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) (MMPs degrade collagen and elastin within the dermal skin layer), and DNA damage. As a consequence, inflammation is increased, collagen breakdown is accelerated and new collagen formation can be compromised. This leads to the formation of wrinkles and fine lines, with an increased risk of malignant skin cancer. Formation of reactive oxygen species is pivotal to causing dermal damage and ageing our skin. To protect against this our skin has a natural antioxidant defence network, but unfortunately poor lifestyle habits (our increasingly poor diet, sedentary behaviour & psychological stress) impair this, compromising our natural repair process.
Collagen Vitality™ contains a unique synergy of five of the highest quality and most effective natural anti-oxidant ingredients to boost your anti-oxidant defences and protect your body against free radical damage. Each anti-oxidant is selected for its scientifically researched efficacy and bioavailability, while each anti-oxidant is chosen for its pure manufacturing standards and environmental responsibility. Collagen Vitality’s anti-oxidants not only help to protect your skin from collagen degradation while supporting the regeneration of new collagen, but also boost your whole body’s immunity against free radical damage.
Collagen Vitality™ protects against premature ageing, for a more radiant and glowing complexion, stronger hair and nails, improved immunity and a healthier muscular skeletal system.

REPLENISH
Our bodies natural production of collagen starts to decline from our mid-twenties, with an estimated accelerated loss of 1.5% a year from the age of 30, when we may start to notice the first visible physical signs of ageing. Combined with an increased exposure to free radical damage and oxidative stress, the development of fine lines, wrinkles, loss of skin plumpness and hydration begins. For women at the onset of the menopause, this process accelerates further, and may be combined with possible bone and joint weakening. Replenishing our bodies with an abundant supply of collagen, hyaluronic acid and ingredients that stimulate collagen production helps to combat this ageing process. Replenishment provides the nutritional support for a more vibrant youthful you. Informed upon scientific research Collagen Vitality™ has been designed to replenish your skin and body as it ages, with the nutrients it needs for a healthier and more radiant you.

Chronic stress can affect overall wellbeing, has been linked to numerous health conditions and can expediate the ageing process. It can suppress your immune system, inhibit your anti-oxidant defences, increase free radical damage and affect your body’s hormonal balance. This leads to an increase in inflammatory markers, that not only degrade collagen and impair synthesis, but also increase your risk of disease. Stress is exhausting, reduces sleep quality (our body’s natural reparative restoration), damages our health and causes us to age.
Restoring our body’s balance by reducing stress and controlling the hypothalamic (HPA axis) release of the stress hormones adrenaline and cortisol is key to our health. Lifestyle choices of wholesome nutrition, regular moderate exercise, limited caffeine intake and 7-8 hours of sleep per night all help to balance and restore our HPA axis. Collagen Vitality™ understands the importance of restoration for optimising your health and collagen formation. We understand that balance is key to combating the ageing process. This is why Collagen Vitality™ is the first skincare supplement to protect, replenish and restore.
