Collagen Types I & III Powder 30 Servings by NBI

Collagen Types I & III Powder by NBI is a professional-grade hydrolyzed collagen formula designed to support healthy skin elasticity, promote normal joint and connective tissue integrity, and maintain healthy bone matrix structure. This 30-serving powder delivers a concentrated dose of Types I and III collagen peptides in a highly bioavailable hydrolyzed form that mixes easily into beverages and is rapidly absorbed for efficient delivery to target tissues.

Key Benefits of Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides and Synergistic Cofactors

• Hydrolyzed Collagen Type I Peptides: The most abundant collagen type in the body, found in skin, tendons, ligaments, bones, and the gut lining. Supports healthy skin elasticity and firmness, promotes normal tendon and ligament tensile strength, and maintains healthy bone matrix density.
• Hydrolyzed Collagen Type III Peptides: A structural collagen found alongside Type I in skin, blood vessels, and internal organs. Supports healthy skin suppleness, promotes normal vascular wall integrity, and maintains healthy connective tissue flexibility in soft tissues.
• Skin Elasticity and Hydration Support: Collagen peptides support healthy fibroblast activity, promoting normal collagen and elastin synthesis in the dermis and maintaining healthy skin hydration, firmness, and resilience.
• Joint and Connective Tissue Integrity: Collagen peptides provide the amino acid building blocks for healthy cartilage matrix maintenance, promoting normal joint cushioning and maintaining healthy ligament and tendon structural integrity.
• Bone Matrix Support: Type I collagen is the primary organic component of bone matrix, supporting healthy osteoblast activity and promoting normal bone mineral density maintenance in conjunction with adequate calcium and Vitamin D intake.
• Gut Lining and Mucosal Integrity: Collagen peptides, particularly glycine and proline-rich sequences, support healthy intestinal epithelial cell function and promote normal mucosal barrier integrity throughout the digestive tract.
• Hair and Nail Structural Support: Collagen amino acids including glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline support healthy keratin synthesis, promoting normal hair follicle function and nail plate structural integrity.
• Muscle Mass and Recovery Support: Collagen peptides provide glycine, which supports healthy creatine synthesis, and proline, which promotes normal connective tissue repair in muscle fascia and tendons following physical activity.
• Vascular and Cardiovascular Tissue Support: Type III collagen is a key structural component of arterial walls and blood vessels, supporting healthy vascular flexibility and promoting normal cardiovascular tissue integrity.
• Glycine (as a Primary Amino Acid): The most abundant amino acid in collagen, glycine supports healthy neurotransmitter activity, promotes normal sleep quality, and maintains healthy detoxification pathways in the liver.
• Proline and Hydroxyproline: Collagen-specific amino acids that support healthy collagen triple-helix stability, promote normal wound healing, and maintain structural integrity in skin, cartilage, and connective tissues.
• Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid, if included): An essential cofactor for prolyl hydroxylase and lysyl hydroxylase enzymes, supporting healthy collagen cross-linking and promoting normal collagen synthesis throughout the body.

Why This Formula Matters

Not all collagen supplements deliver the same results, and the degree of hydrolysis determines how efficiently collagen peptides are absorbed and transported to target tissues. Hydrolyzed collagen peptides are broken down into low-molecular-weight di- and tripeptides that are absorbed intact through the intestinal wall and have been shown in clinical studies to reach skin, joint, and bone tissues where they stimulate resident cells to produce new collagen. The combination of Types I and III in a single powder addresses the two most structurally important collagen types for skin, connective tissue, and vascular health, providing a more comprehensive approach to collagen support than single-type products.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Collagen Types I & III Powder used for?

This hydrolyzed collagen powder is designed to support healthy skin elasticity, promote normal joint and connective tissue integrity, and maintain healthy bone matrix structure. It is intended for adults seeking a bioavailable collagen supplement for daily skin, joint, bone, and connective tissue support.

How do I take Collagen Types I & III Powder?

The recommended use is 1 scoop once per day, or as directed by a qualified healthcare practitioner. The powder can be mixed into water, juice, smoothies, coffee, or other beverages. It is generally flavorless or mildly flavored and dissolves readily in both hot and cold liquids.

What is the difference between Type I and Type III collagen?

Type I collagen is the most abundant collagen in the body and is the primary structural protein in skin, tendons, ligaments, and bone. Type III collagen is found alongside Type I in skin and soft tissues, and is particularly concentrated in blood vessel walls and internal organs. Together, they support the structural integrity of a broad range of tissues, which is why combining both types in a single formula provides more comprehensive connective tissue support than either type alone.

How long does it take to notice results from collagen supplementation?

Clinical studies on hydrolyzed collagen peptides for skin and joint support have generally assessed outcomes at 8 to 12 weeks of consistent daily use. Improvements in skin hydration and elasticity are often reported within 4 to 8 weeks, while joint comfort benefits may take longer to become apparent. Individual response times vary based on age, diet, activity level, and baseline collagen status.

Is this collagen sourced from bovine or marine sources?

NBI's Collagen Types I & III Powder is derived from bovine (cattle) hide collagen, which is the most common and well-studied source for Type I and Type III collagen peptides. Individuals with beef allergies or dietary restrictions should consult their healthcare provider before use. Marine collagen is an alternative source primarily providing Type I collagen for those who prefer a non-bovine option.

Can Collagen Types I & III Powder be taken with other supplements?

Collagen powder is generally well tolerated alongside other supplements. Taking it with a source of Vitamin C may support collagen synthesis, as Vitamin C is an essential cofactor for the enzymes that stabilize collagen structure. There are no known significant interactions with common medications, but individuals with specific health conditions should consult their healthcare provider before adding any new supplement to their regimen.
