## Description

First, Collagen contains a full spectrum of all five critical collagen types. Let’s break down how each type can help you.

 

TYPE I If collagen’s skin-related benefits are your top priority, type I collagen is your go-to, as it makes up 90 percent of your hair, skin, and nails (organs, bones, and ligaments, too). Type I collagen can help ward off the hallmarks of the appearance of aging skin, like the stretching out or thinning of the skin.

 

TYPE II

Type II collagen is known for supporting the immune system and joints. Type II collagen is VERY important and is a major part of our gut lining. It helps it act as a barrier between the substances we consume and our bloodstream. This helps our digestive system run smoothly, and also benefits our immune system. It’s also a major building block of cartilage, which is why it’s so crucial for joint health.

 

TYPE III

Type III collagen helps form arterial walls, which is key for cardiovascular health. It’s often found alongside type I collagen in the body (think bone, cartilage, dentin, tendons, skin, and other connective tissues)— though in smaller amounts—and thus offers similar skin and bone related benefits. For that reason, types I and III make perfect supplement sidekicks, packing a one-two punch.

 

TYPE V AND X COLLAGEN Though the first three types of collagen are the most abundant in the body and the most commonly found in supplements, some of the lesser-seen types— notably types V and X—are also important for key body functions. Type V collagen helps form cell membranes and the tissue in women’s placentas, while type X plays a crucial role in bone formation.
