Unmatched Collagen Peptide-6: A New Standard of Collagen Products

Unmatched Collagen Peptide-6

Unmatched Collagen Peptide-6 is a game changer when it comes to the category of collagen products. It is not another simple formula that gives you one to three types of collagen. Unmatched Collagen Peptide-6 gives users six different types of collage that will support cellular health, bone health, joint and ligament health, and support healthy skin, nails and hair. Additional ingredients in this formula aid in sustaining the collagen in the body as well as promoting longevity and cellular health.

PureWay-C Vitamin C – 90mg

We start with above the “active” section of the supplement facts panel with a branded version of Vitamin C. Users get 90mg of PureWay-C. PureWay-C is a branded version of Vitamin C that has been clinically proven to be more effective than other versions of Vitamin C. In a 2008 study, PureWay-C was compared against ascorbic acid (AA), calcium ascorbate (CaA) and calcium ascorbate-calcium threonate-dehydroascorbate (Ester-C). The study concluded that PureWay-C is more rapidly absorbed and leads to higher serum vitamin C levels and greater reduction of plasma levels of inflammatory and oxidative stress markers than other forms of vitamin C.

This is important as Vitamin C plays a crucial role in collagen production, structure, and stability. Without Vitamin C the body cannot create nor maintain collagen.

Combining PureWay-C with six types of collagen will allow this formula to be more effective. A good way to think about it is collagen is the material to build the home, while Vitamin C (PureWay-C) is the construction crew that will actually build it.

The dosage of 90mg is great for baseline support.

Collagen Peptide-6 – 10.5g

Collagen Peptide-6 is a combination of grass-fed bovine collagen (giving off type I & III collagen), Pure Marine fish collagen peptides (types I, II, III & IV) and eggshell membrane powder (types V & X). This formula contains the following:

Grass-Fed Bovine Collagen – 9g

Bovine collagen is the most common type of collagen used in collagen products. It gives off type I and type III collage. Type I collagen represents about 90% of total collagen found in skin, tendons, ligaments, bones, and teeth. This aids in improving the strength and structure of these items leading to overall healthier versions of them (i.e healthy skin).

Type III collagen is also extremely popular in collagen supplements. Type III collagen is responsible for supporting skin, blood vessels and organ health. Type I and type III are typically together to promote skin firmness and health.

The common takeaway with type I and III is that they support skin, hair and nails.

Pure Marine Fish Collagen Peptides – 1g

Pure Marine Fish Collagen Peptides come from a company called Ajinomoto. This company makes many food and sports nutrition products and ingredients. Pure Marine Fish Collagen Peptides gives users both type I and type III collagen we previously talked about, but also provides type II and type IV.

Type II collagen supports cartilage health and joint health. It can provide joint cushioning and elasticity. When you see “supports joint health” on a label, they are referring to type II.

Type IV collagen supports membranes and tissue health. I can directly support your kidneys and your body’s filtration system.

Pure Marine Fish Collagen Peptides can help support the aging process (anti-aging), bone and joint health, recovery and aid in overall physical appearance (healthy skin).

Eggshell Membrane Powder – 500mg

Eggshell Membrane Powder contains type V and type X collagen. These types of collagen are not as popular or available as type I, II, and III we commonly see. Type V is more common than type X. Type V collagen supports hair health. It helps regulate collagen fiber formation.

Type X is the most unique type of collagen found in this formula. Type X is a signaling and developmental collagen, which is crucial for bone growth and cartilage-to-bone transition. In plain terms, it is beneficial for bone development and connective tissue recovery.

Hyaluronic Acid – 240mg

Hyaluronic acid plays a major role in joint lubrication, tissue hydration and recovery support.  It can help reduce friction between joint surfaces allowing them to move smoothly under load. You also see hyaluronic acid used in a lot of skin health products because it has been shown to maintain skin elasticity. Hyaluronic acid may also support healthy cartilage as it can create a protective matrix around it. Hyaluronic acid can also support faster recovery periods. 

The 240mg dosage is great as we typically see this between 100mg and 200mg. 

Pepzyme AG – 50mg

Pepzyme AG is a branded version of proteases. This is a digestive enzyme blend designed specifically to support the digestion of proteins. Adding in 50mg of Pepzyme AG will help the body digest the collagen proteins breaking them down into their simpler form of amino acids faster to ensure they got to work to support the body. Collagen protein is considered a dense protein so supplementing with Pepzyme AG will speed up the breakdown, limit or eliminate GI discomfort and improve the body’s use of the proteins.

The 50mg is the acceptable dosage.

MitoPrime – 10mg

MitoPrime comes from NNB Nutrition – the makers of several advanced ingredients such as DL185 and CaloriBurn. MitoPrime supports longevity, cognitive function, and mitochondrial energy. MitoPrime is typically used in longevity and anti-aging formulas (Kris Gethin loves biohacking). Research has shown that MitoPrime is 34x more effective than glutathione at scavenging free radicals, has a 2.3x increase in plasma L-ergothioneine to support longevity & healthspan and lead to a 27% increase in sleep duration, 25% increase in sleep refreshment. Collectively these help the body recover faster and experience less oxidative stress levels. 

MitoPrime contributes to supporting cognitive health  by reducing oxidative stress in the brain, potentially making it beneficial for age-related cognitive decline. Research shows that higher blood levels of Ergothioneine (MitoPrime) correlate with a lower risk of cognitive decline.

The 10mg dosage falls within the range of daily dosage recommendation.
