Vital Proteins® Marine Collagen Capsules are designed to help support your body’s natural collagen supply. Our Marine Collagen Capsules provide an easy, convenient way to introduce a collagen supplement into your routine. Just like our bovine-based Collagen Peptides, our Marine Collagen is rich in types I and III collagen. Keep reading for a breakdown of what these types are. Type I While we’re able to create our own collagen, our body’s natural collagen production begins to decline around the age of 25. This is where Vital Proteins® comes in. We offer an array of different types of collagen, including our best-selling bovine-sourced Collagen Peptides. Follow a pescatarian-friendly diet? No worries!

Both Vital Proteins® Collagen Peptides and Vital Proteins® Marine Collagen Peptides are made from one simple ingredient. Our Collagen Peptides is sourced from grass-fed, pasture-raised bovine hide, while our Marine Collagen is sourced from Non-GMO Project Verified, wild-caught cod. The latter is a favorite among those following a Pescatarian-friendly diet. The third most commonly found type of collagen, type III, is generally found in reticular fibres, such as in the bone marrow. It’s usually found alongside type I collagen in the body.

The protein is made up of amino acids glycine, proline, hydroxyproline and arginine — all of which help our body's connective tissue, skin, hair and nails stay as healthy as possible. We believe in whole animal nutrition to reduce waste and improve sustainability. Our Marine Collagen is sourced from the skin and scales of fish, natural by-products of the seafood industry that would otherwise be discarded.
