What’s the Difference in Collagen Type 1 and 3?

What’s the difference in Collagen Type 1 and 3? The main difference is Collagen Type 1 is sourced from marine life. Collagen Type 3 is sourced from cows.

There is quite a bit of debate out there between which collagen is best. I choose to use dōTERRA’s MetaPWR Advantage daily.

Here are a few reasons why. While most collagen products use only one or two collagen peptide types usually related to skin and beauty, MetaPWR Advantage contains nine, each type supporting different biological systems. Here is a breakdown of those 9 collagen types.

• Collagen Type I skin beauty.

• Collagen Type II bone protection and is the main component of cartilage.

• Collagen Type IV dermis and epidermis malleability and elasticity.

• Collagen Type V stabilizes Type I, II collagen.

• Collagen Type VI stabilizes muscle function, cell membranes, inhibiting cell apoptosis and oxidative stress.

• Collagen Type IX cartilage, growth plates, joints, and intervertebral discs.

• Collagen Type XXV Supports normal aging

• Col1a2 supports elastic fiber formation in connective tissue

• Vacuolar Protein sorting 37a involved in cell growth and differentiation.

This collagen also includes 10 other powerhouse ingredients that work synergistically together to slow the signs of aging and to extend our healthspan. Healthspan refers to how long your wellness and overall health last.

My sweet grandma has been in the nursing home with dementia for 14 years. She’s been unable to care for herself for quite sometime. I’m trying to increase my healthspan as close to death as possible.

The other amazing ingredients are:

Resveratrol is found in red wine. Some believe resveratrol explains the “French paradox” (the phenomenon whereby French have low rates of heart disease despite a diet relatively high in saturated fats like butter and cheese).

• NMN

• NADH

• Rose apple extract

• Red-orange complex

• Sea buckthorn Rice ceramides

• Biotin Hyaluronic acid

• Liposomal vitamin C

I know sometimes we see collagen in liquid form. From what I’ve read, the process used to sterilize the water-based delivery system not only eliminates the harmful bacteria, but it also eliminates the beneficial active ingredients like vitamins, flavonoids, and polyphenols.

Powdered collagen mixed with water immediately before ingesting is much more effective and preferred by your body’s systems.

 I know some companies source their collagen from pork or beef (Type 3).  Our collagen is sourced from sustainably harvested cold-water marine fish that’s been predigested, by enzymes. These enzymes create small tripeptide fragments of three amino acid sequences for optimal absorption. As far as I know we have the only collagen that is cut into specific tripeptide fragments, which dramatically increases its bioavailability.

 So what does that mean? Other companies may contain 15–35% tripeptide content while our Advantage collagen is over 70% tripeptide fragments and has been demonstrated to be up to 12X more absorbable than other brands. The 3 gram sachet of MetaPWR Advantage is equivalent to 36 grams of other collagen on the market.

The before and afters I’m seeing after only 30 days are AMAZING!!

• People are releasing weight and aren’t as hungry

• Seeing improvement in cholesterol, health and blood sugar regulation

• Seeing a visible difference in hair, nails and skin

• Noticing better sleep, more energy, mental clarity, stress management

• Quicker muscle recovery less inflammation in joints and muscles

 At the time of this recording,

I’ve been on the new system for 7 weeks. I can tell a difference in my sleep. Like I’m sleeping hard in a really deep and quality sleep. I have energy without using stimulants. I’m noticing less inflammation in my body after workouts. And I’ve lost 15 pounds. My stamina in workouts and hikes has greatly increased.

To recap doTERRA MetaPWR Advantage has

• 19 active ingredients including a natural source of NMN and NADH.

• Proprietary sustainable marine source

• 9 specific type of tripeptide collagen

• up to 12x the absorption

• no emulsifiers

• no sugar

I highly recommend trying this for 30 days. Here is a link to purchase the doTERRA Advantage Collagen+

FAQ

"Is MetaPWR safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding?"

As a rule, expecting and breastfeeding mothers should always consult with their healthcare provider about anything they plan to take during pregnancy or while nursing. Talk to your provider about your situation, but we know of no ingredients in MetaPWR products that would make using them unsafe during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

"Why did dōTERRA chose marine-sourced collagen for MetaPWR Advantage?"

Our marine collagen is sourced from sustainably harvested cold-water fish in global locations like Italy. Marine-sourced collagen is generally more sustainable, economical, and environmentally friendly. The percentage of collagen
in a fish is high, and collagen yields from the non-flesh portion of fish can be between 50 and 70%, which makes marine collagen a sustainable source. Using marine- sourced collagen makes MetaPWR Advantage friendly for those who avoid cow or pig sourced collagen.

On the topic of ingredients, I’ll note that MetaPWR products are gluten-free, dairy-free, corn-free, and keto-friendly. The products are also free of maltodextrin, carrageenan, glyphosate, artificial sweeteners, and added sugars.

“Will a vegan version of MetaPWR Advantage be available?”

Collagen is synthesized by animals and available exclusively from them. Sometimes you may see products marketed as vegan collagen. However, looking closely you’ll realize they’re usually collections of vegan sourced amino acids not the actual collagen tripeptides. There are vegan-friendly products and compounds that support the synthesis of collagen. In fact, Yarrow|Pom Capsules are vegan and fill this role.
