WHAT IS COLLAGEN?
There are 3 distinct types of collagen, with completely different functions Type I, Type II and Type III. All 3 types of collagen contain different collagen peptides that have a distinct function in the body.
Over 90% of the collagen in the body consists of Type I and Type III collagen and 36% of the bones consist of Type I and Type III collagen.
Over time, the ideal levels of collagen that our bodies naturally produce begin to decrease. At the age of 40, the body's ability to produce collagen decreases by 25%. At age 60, the reduction is over 50%. This is especially true for collagen Type I and Type III.
The difference between smooth and elastic skin, and loose skin with wrinkles is the amount of collagen the body produces. Wrinkled and loose skin contains less collagen fibers which creates gaps in the skin and thus makes it wrinkled. Youthful skin has a rich, well-structured network of intact collagen fibers.
Collagen is a protein that evens skin texture and smooths wrinkles, gives skin elasticity and improves skin tension. The result is firm, healthy and hydrated skin without wrinkles and fine lines. Fortunately, the youthful structure of the skin can be maintained even in older age, but it is necessary to act from the inside and stimulate the body to produce collagen, so the body needs help in the form of nutritional supplements such as
Dimas Pure Collagen Peptides.
Collagen positively affects the hair in several ways – it reduces the appearance of gray hair, treats dry, cracked and brittle hair, strengthens the ends and stimulates the growth of new follicles. It also has a positive effect on the reduction of hair loss, that is, it helps in the restoration and faster growth of hair. The conclusion is that with the help of collagen we achieve thick, shiny, healthy and elastic hair.
As we discovered, unfortunately collagen decreases in our body with age, so it is necessary to replace or even stimulate its production. A proper and balanced diet, as well as regular physical activity can slow down the loss of collagen. It is necessary to eliminate refined sugar and increase the intake of vitamin C, which is a basic nutrient required for collagen biosynthesis. But the diet itself cannot affect the increased production of collagen, so it’s necessary to add special nutritional supplements such as Dimas Pure Collagen Peptides., which will stimulate the body to produce collagen in a natural way.
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body and consists of interconnected amino acids that make up the connective tissue of tendons, ligaments and skin. It plays a crucial role in maintaining the strength of bones and joints. It provides a structural framework for bones, promoting bone density and reducing the risk of fractures. When it comes to joints, collagen helps maintain cartilage – the cushioning material that allows for smooth movement and prevents wear and tear.
Regular consumption of collagen can reduce joint pain, improve mobility, and support overall joint health by promoting the repair of damaged cartilage and reducing inflammation. These benefits make collagen essential for individuals who want to have and maintain healthy bones and joints at any age. But since the ideal levels of collagen that our bodies naturally produce begin to decrease over time, it is necessary to include collagen supplements in the diet. If your goal is to maintain healthy and strong bones and joints, Dimas Beef Collagen will allow you to achieve that goal quickly, easily and in a 100% natural way.

Collagen is the most important and abundant protein in the human body (it makes up 35% of all proteins). It is the main component of all connective tissues, skin, muscles, blood vessels, bones, joints and cartilage, providing them with structure, strength and elasticity.
There are several types of collagen in the human body, but the most important are:
- Collagen Type I - the most effective and makes up about 90% of the total amount of collagen in our body. It provides structure and elasticity to the skin, tendons, cartilage, connective tissue, helps in the formation of bones and teeth and is very important for wound healing.
- Collagen Type II - affects the quality of the bone-joint system, and is most important for cartilage and tendons. Preventive intake is recommended to prevent joint pain and arthritis.
- Collagen Type III - especially important for blood vessels and muscles, and it’s also found in some vital organs (lungs, liver, spleen). It supports the immune system, aids digestion and absorption of nutrients.
Collagen Type I and Type III should be taken together in order to get the best results, while collagen type 2 should be taken separately from them so that it can be properly and fully absorbed.
Collagen is responsible for healthy and wrinkle-free skin, thick and strong hair, strong and beautiful nails, as well as for maintaining healthy teeth, tendons and eyes.
It protects and restores joints, strengthens muscle mass, protects blood vessels, accelerates wound healing, positively affects intestinal flora, contributes to the reduction of cellulite, improves metabolism and provides energy.
Our body has the ability to naturally produce collagen. But over time, the ideal levels of collagen that our bodies naturally produce begin to decrease. By the age of 30, the human body loses an average of 1.5% collagen per year. At the age of 40, the body's ability to produce collagen decreases by 25%. At age 60, the reduction is over 50%.
The decrease in the quantity and quality of natural collagen in the body negatively affects the appearance and overall condition of the body, and is also associated with numerous health problems.
The first symptoms indicating that our body lacks collagen are dry, wrinkled and loose skin, thin and brittle hair, weak nails prone to peeling, joint and muscle pain, sensitive tendons and ligaments, poor circulation, digestive problems, hormonal imbalance.
Since lost collagen can hardly be compensated through diet alone, it’s necessary to act from the inside and stimulate the body to produce collagen. It’s recommended to start consuming collagen supplements (beef or fish collagen) at around 25 years of age.
Both beef and fish collagen are available in the form of hydrolyzed collagen peptides, because in this form collagen is easily resorbed in the body, distributed in all tissues and reaches the deepest layers of the skin (dermis). The absorption of hydrolyzed collagen powder is about 90%, while the absorption of collagen from food is less than 30%.
When choosing collagen supplements, it is most important to consider what results we want to achieve.
All collagen peptides currently available on the market are of animal origin, the most common being bovine collagen (collagen type I and III) and fish collagen (collagen type I).
The Dimas beef collagen (Bovine collagen) is especially recommended for joints, cartilage, tendons and ligaments. Also, this type of collagen ensures faster recovery of the body after sports activities and exercise.
The Dimas fish collagen is resorbed faster (1.5 times more efficiently), so it gives slightly faster results when it comes to restoring skin, hair, nails and other tissues in the body.
You can notice the first positive results after a month of regular use. Some users have noticed improvements after a few days, others after a few weeks. Each organism is individual, but for the best results it’s recommended to continuously consume collagen for 3 months. For the results of consuming the Dimas Collagens, we suggest you read the experiences of our customers.
For most people, consuming collagen supplements is completely safe, even long term. Only people with kidney problems, for whom a low-protein diet is recommended, should pay special attention.
Collagen supplements rarely cause contraindications, but if an allergic reaction, nausea, stomach discomfort or diarrhea occurs, it is recommended to consult a doctor. In most cases, it is only necessary to replace the collagen from one manufacturer to another or to replace the type of collagen (if you have been taking collagen derived from chicken cartilage, replace it with beef or fish collagen).
The recommended daily dosage for collagen intake is 10 g beef collagen (1 tablespoon) or 5 g fish collagen (1 teaspoon).
The two types of Dimas Collagen Peptides contain 30 portions (beef collagen comes in a 300 g package, and fish collagen in a 150 g package), which is the necessary and sufficient amount of collagen for 30 days of continuous consumption.
You can also drink both types of Dimas Collagen Peptides at any time of the day (choose the time that suits you best - in the morning on an empty stomach, before bed, before or after a meal), mixed with water, juice, coffee, tea, yogurt, shake, in a smoothie or as part of a meal (in oatmeal, salad). The Dimas Collagen has neither smell nor taste, so it can be easily combined with various drinks, dishes and desserts!
We recommend that you drink the Dimas Collagen Peptides continuously for at least three months, and then take a break of one month.
Considering that all collagen peptides currently available on the market are of animal origin, people who follow a vegan diet cannot consume any collagen, while fish collagen is suitable for a vegetarian diet.
The Dimas Collagen Peptides, unlike other collagen supplements on the market, are the only ones that have a recommendation from the Faculty of Pharmacy in Novi Sad as completely safe for pregnant women and women who breastfeed.
