Champion Collagen
|
Collagen (aka Collagen Peptides, or Collagen Hydrolysate, among other names) is an all natural purified animal protein that is broken down into Amino Acids. These amino acids are the building blocks of protein. Collagen is a key building block for the human body. From vital organs, joints, ligaments and tendons, to hair, skin and nails: Collagen is an integral, key component.
Type I Collagen is the primary collagen found throughout the body in most of our tissues including skin, tendons, bones, artery walls, intestines and more. Collagen is even a critical component to bones, cartilage, ligaments and skeletal muscles. |
Of all the amino acids, nine are considered to be essential to the body. This means that without introducing them to your body in some way, you will die. While a balanced diet - including proper amounts of protein rich foods - can supply enough amino acids to keep you alive, supplementing your daily protein intake with Champion's Collagen will help ensure you enjoy the many benefits of a diet rich in Collagen Peptides (amino acids).

Champion Collagen | As We Age...
Champion Collagen peptides provide premium nutritional building blocks needed to support youthful vitality and offer overall healthy aging support. As we age, our collagen is gradually less able to regenerate itself, resulting in a noticeable lack of skin firmness, loss of mobility in joints, and muscle tissue and bone loss.
Champion's Collagen supplements supply the body with critical amino acids that serve as the foundation to provide a range of health benefit solutions for healthy-aging and to help maintain a youthful look and feel.
In fact, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies on the anti-aging properties of Champion Collagen have found that 0.5–5 grams of collagen used among women aged 35–55 once daily for eight weeks significantly improved skin elasticity, skin moisture, dryness (transepidermal water loss) and skin roughness, with little to no side effects.

Getting Older...
- Sarcopenia (aka muscle-mass loss with age) is a major concern for aging boomers.
- Muscle loss is a natural consequence of aging (Decreased Hormones)
- Muscle mass loss is estimated to be up to 8% per decade (range of 40-70 years) with an inactive lifestyle.
- Aging process causes diminished strength and body weakness.
- An increased likelihood of falls and restriction in the ability to perform daily routine activities has been linked to Sarcopenia.
- And a plethora of other age related maladies….

Champion's Collagen | The Science...
|
Double-blind, placebo-controlled studies on the anti-aging properties of collagen have found that 2.5–5 grams of collagen used among women aged 35–55 once daily for eight weeks significantly improved skin elasticity, skin moisture, dryness (transepidermal water loss) and skin roughness, with little to no side effects. This proves Champions Collagen one of the best natural skin care ingredients available.

Type I Collagen is the most abundant in the skin, and along with elastin, forms fibers that guarantee structure, elasticity and firmness. A diet rich in Champion’s Collagen Peptides has shown significant improvement on skin appearance. Several experiments suggest that collagen peptides are efficiently absorbed and distributed to the various layers of the skin.
Champion’s Collagen peptides stimulate the proliferation of cells responsible for the synthesis of collagen (fibroblasts), contributing to production of new collagen molecules and significant increase in density and diameter of these collagen fibers in the dermis.
Long-term ingestion of Champion’s Collagen peptides presented benefits related to skin resistance to external factors such as damage caused by UVB radiation. It has been shown in some studies that collagen peptides decrease water loss from the skin, and affect the function of the epidermal barrier and elasticity of the skin.
It has been verified that collagen peptides stimulate a higher production of hyaluronic acid. It is possible that increasing the amounts of hyaluronic acid in the skin aids to improve hydration and elasticity, as well as epidermal barrier function.

Methodology: Double blind test. Observations: Increase in the water absorbing capacity of the stratum corneum during the test period higher for the collagen-ingesting group than that of the placebo group at 1 month. Difference became larger when the test period was extended to 2 months. Result: Increased moisture content in the stratum corneum. |

Supplemental Ingestion of Collagen Peptide Suppresses Ultraviolet-induced Erythema
Solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation leads to immune suppression, inflammation, photo aging, and skin carcinogenesis. Acute as well as chronic sun exposure induces short and long term clinical damage to the skin. Erythema and pigmentation are the short term responses of normal human skin exposed to UV radiation, while the long-term effects are photoaging and photocarcinogenesis of the skin.
A Randomized Double-blind Placebo-controlled Study results suggest that supplemental ingestion of collagen peptide has beneficial effects on human skin for suppressing erythema induced by ultraviolet irradiation, particularly in older subjects above 30 years of age.

Collagen is a key component for bone strength and flexibility and collagen comprises nearly 90% of our organic bone mass. Among other factors, it works in concert with calcium-phosphate and minerals to help make bones rigid and strong. As we age, our bones gradually loose their ability to “turnover” and increase bone mass formation.
|
|
When we are young this is not a problem, but this “turnover” process lessens with time and age, and bone loss can begin to occur. Osteoporosis and an increased risk of bone fractures can also be attributed to aging in general.
Research shows Champion’s Collagen peptides can help to maintain bone health and to help prevent the pain and stiffness caused by osteopenia and osteoarthritis.
Osteoarthritis results in joint and cartilage degradation and is the most common form of arthritis. The hips, knees and vertebrae are the most common problem areas for joint degradation. This condition can lead to pain and a noticeable loss of mobility. This can affect any and all joints in the body.
With age we lose the ability to replenish our body’s natural collagen levels. This contributes to stiff joints and pain...

As Champion’s Champions will tell you, stiff, painful joints aren’t just found in the elderly! Athletes are also prone to joint pain and mobility issues.

A diet including Champion Collagen peptide helps promote joint health by helping to repair deteriorated joint matrices, and improving long-term joint comfort and mobility.
Champion Collagen | Diet, Satiety & Protein
|
Proteins are the most satiating macronutrient, but it is important to remember that not all proteins are the same. A study has shown that an up to 30% reduction in calorie intake during lunch was noted after a breakfast containing collagen peptides with tryptophan, compared to a breakfast containing the same amount of whey-GMP1 or soy.
Secretion of hormones (PYY) are influenced by collagen peptides: promoting satiety and thus aiding reduction of calorie intake of the following meal. Diets high in protein and low in glycemic help maintain weight after weight loss. |
Champion’s Collagen Peptides Contribute to Active Calorie Management
The results of several studies on collagen peptides have shown:
The results of several studies on collagen peptides have shown:
- A healthy, protein rich diet is essential for maintaining proper levels of amino acids in the body for protein synthesis.
- A clinical study showed that a low glycemic, protein rich diet presented a positive results in loss and maintenance of weight. The benefits of this diet are in the satiety effects caused by the high amount of protein intake.
- Collagen peptides induced the increase in hormones responsible for satiated sensation in the blood of obese patients. A diet focused on collagen peptides proved to be useful in reducing the appetite and consequently, in reducing energy intake in obese patients, making collagen an excellent contributor to the effectiveness of low-calorie diets, as well as improving control for diabetic patients.

Collagen peptide supplementation in combination with resistance training improves body composition and increases muscle strength in elderly sarcopenic men: a randomised controlled trial
|
Study confirms previous results that 60 min of resistance exercise, performed three times per week, is well suited to significantly increase muscle mass, muscular strength and motor control in subjects with sarcopenia class I or II. The study has demonstrated that the combination of resistance exercise and collagen peptide supplementation resulted in a more pronounced improvement of body composition, as indicated by a significant increase in muscle mass and decrease in FM, compared with placebo. In addition, muscular strength was significantly improved after collagen peptide intake compared with the training program plus placebo.

Post-exercise muscle anabolism: The search for the optimal recovery drink...
Recent studies have shown that nutritional mixtures containing protein hydrolysates (i.e. Champion Collagen), added leucine, and high-glycaemic carbohydrates greatly augment insulin secretion compared with high-glycaemic carbohydrates only.
When post-exercise hyperinsulinaemia is supported by hyperaminoacidaemia induced by protein hydrolysate and leucine ingestion, net protein deposition in muscle should occur.
Protein hydrolysates (i.e. Champion Collagen) are absorbed at a faster rate from the small intestine than are intact milk proteins [whey], as reflected by the rapid increase in the plasma concentration of branched-chain amino acids in peripheral blood.
Thus, consumption of post-exercise recovery drinks containing these nutrients in conjunction with appropriate resistance training may lead to increased skeletal muscle hypertrophy and strength.
