Why is Collagen Essential for a Resilient Gut?
Our guts are lined with a thin mucosal lining. This lining is the home for our microbiome. It has the important job of allowing substances we such as water and nutrients to pass through into our bloodstream, while keeping large, undigested or dangerous particles inside our gut. Problems occur when our gut lining starts to fail. Ever heard of leaky gut syndrome? The collagen and amino acids in this powder help to boost the integrity of and feed our gut lining.
Another common gut problem is inflammation. Whether it's an inflammatory disease or low level inflammation, this wreaks havoc on our digestive tract. Did you know that collagen peptide powder is easily digested and anti-inflammatory providing the building blocks that our gut lining needs to stay strong and supple.
Why Type 1 and Type 3 Collagen?
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body and is a major component of connective tissues, including skin, bones, tendons, and ligaments. Type 1 and Type 3 collagen the two most common types found in the body, each serving distinct functions.
Type 1 Collagen
Type 1 collagen is the most abundant collagen in the human body.
It is composed of densely packed fibers, making it very strong and capable of providing significant tensile strength.
Type 1 collagen is primarily found in:
Skin
Bones
Tendons
Ligaments
Cornea
Blood vessel walls
Intervertebral discs
Type 1 collagen plays a crucial role in:
Maintaining the structural integrity of tissues
Providing strength and support to the skin, bones, and connective tissues
Healing wounds and repairing tissues
Supporting the structure and function of tendons and ligaments
Type 3 Collagen
Type 3 collagen is also widely distributed but is less abundant than Type 1 collagen.
It is composed of thinner and more flexible fibrils compared to Type 1 collagen.
Type 3 collagen is primarily found in:
Skin
Blood vessels
Intestinal walls
Uterus
Muscles
Liver
Lungs
Type 3 collagen is important for:
Supporting the structure and elasticity of hollow organs and tissues that require flexibility
Maintaining the integrity of blood vessels and organs
Playing a role in the early stages of wound healing, where it is later replaced by Type 1 collagen for scar tissue formation
Differences Between Type 1 and Type 2 Collagen
Strength and Flexibility: Type 1 collagen is stronger and more rigid, providing structural support and tensile strength, whereas Type 3 collagen is more flexible and provides elasticity.
Tissue Distribution: Type 1 collagen is more prevalent in dense tissues like skin, bones, tendons, and ligaments. In contrast, Type 3 collagen is found in more flexible tissues such as blood vessels, intestines, and muscles.
