Collagen is a naturally occurring protein that is crucial for supporting your healthy skin, bones, muscles, tendons and overall health. While your body normally produces its own supply of collagen, this production slows down significantly as you age. Fortunately, you can naturally boost your collagen levels by supplementing with high-quality collagen peptides.

What is Groovy Bee® Collagen Joint Support with Black Currant made of?**
Our natural collagen joint support blend is packed full of antioxidants and other nutrients known to support joint health.

Marine collagen peptides – Collagen is a naturally occurring protein that can be found in your skin, muscles, tendons, cartilage, ligaments, bones, teeth and blood vessels. Collagen peptides are a bioavailable form of collagen produced through a process called hydrolysis. This process breaks down collagen into more easily absorbed, smaller pieces that your body can use as building blocks to repair and restore aging tissues. To help improve its bioavailability without losing any of its nutritional value, collagen often undergoes the process of hydrolysis. We use lab-verified hydrolyzed CollaGEM™ Marine Collagen Peptides for our premium Collagen Beauty Support Instant Powder.

Black currant juice powder – Black currants are the dark purple edible berries that grow on the Ribes nigrum shrub, which is a member of the gooseberry family. Packed with a number of phytonutrients and antioxidants, black currants are naturally abundant in anthocyanins, polyphenols, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, copper, calcium, gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) and vitamins A, B1, B5, B6, C and E. In particular, black currants can contain up to 4 times more vitamin C than oranges and around twice the antioxidant content of blueberries. All of these potent antioxidants can allow black currants to support healthy eye, kidney, gut, skin and immune functions. That's why we've included FiberJuice™ Black Currant Juice Powder in our premium Collagen Beauty Support Instant Powder blend.

Blueberry extract – Blueberries are tiny, dark blue, edible berries that are produced by the Vaccinium corymbosum shrub, which belongs to the heather family. Similar to many other brightly colored fruits and berries, blueberries contain high concentrations of anthocyanins, which are the main antioxidant compounds in blueberries. Other potent antioxidants found in blueberries include myricetin, quercetin, resveratrol, kaempferol, procyanidins, pterostilbene, chlorogenic acid, resveratrol and vitamins A, C and E. Due to their natural abundance of powerful antioxidants, blueberries can support the healthy functions of your heart, eyes, brain, skin and bones, as well as your digestive and immune systems.

 
Vitamin C – Also known as ascorbic acid, vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin best known for supporting healthy immune function. It is also important for the healthy functions of nearly all the organs in your body, including your heart, brain, skin, bones, lungs and digestive system. As one of the most important micronutrients for maintaining optimal overall health, vitamin C is necessary for proper iron absorption, normal collagen production and supporting your body's natural healing process. Furthermore, vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that can help protect your body from oxidative stress and support your optimal health and well-being.

Fermented Super Berries Essence Powder – Berries should never be underestimated when it comes to their nutritional value. As one of the healthiest snacks Nature can provide, these tasty and nutritious superfruits are especially known for their high concentrations of bioavailable anthocyanins, vitamin C, antioxidants and phytochemicals. All of these potent antioxidants and phytonutrients can help protect your body from oxidative damage caused by harmful free radicals and support your overall health and well-being.

Inulin – Inulin is a soluble dietary fiber that is naturally produced by plants and is used as an energy source. It is believed to possess prebiotic qualities that can nourish the friendly bacteria in your gut and support healthy digestive function and metabolism. Inulin is also known to naturally uplift your mood.
 
Elastin – As one of the most abundant proteins in your body, elastin plays a critical role in helping the muscles, tissues and organs in your body stretch. In fact, elastin is believed to be approximately 1,000 x's stretchier than other proteins, such as collagen. Elastin is responsible for keeping your skin flexible while still being able to return to its original shape.

Glutathione – Sometimes referred to as the "Mother of all Antioxidants," glutathione is a potent antioxidant that is composed of three amino acids, namely glutamine, glycine, and cysteine. Glutathione plays a vital role in supporting healthy skin and immune functions, as well as supporting your liver's natural detoxification process.

Ceramide – Ceramides are a class of fatty acids called lipids, or fat molecules, that serve as a major component in your skin's natural composition. Since they make up around 50% of your epidermis, or the outer layer of your skin, ceramides undoubtedly play a crucial role in supporting the growth of healthy, radiant skin.
