Look and Stay Young and Radiant with Bodagen! Your browser does not support our video. Bodagen is the ultimate source of collagen for your body. It contains both type I and III collagen peptides. Collagen is widely known for promoting healthy skin, hair, nails, and joints, but that’s not where the potential of collagen ends! Several studies have explored the beneficial effects collagen had in preventing bone loss, increasing muscle mass, improving heart and blood vessel health, and on correcting cholesterol levels. Bodagen also contains silica sourced from bamboo shoots that help your body produce its own collagen. Like collagen, silica is truly a fascinating element that has numerous benefits, from preventing the loss and weakening of bones, to keeping nails healthy, optimizing the growth of hair, increasing the production of hyaluronic acid and natural compounds that play important roles in keeping tissues healthy in the skin, eyes, tendons, bones, cartilage, blood vessels, and heart. Thanks to its formulation, Bodagen helps you look and stay young and radiant while providing you with biotin, zinc, as well as vitamins A, C, D, and E. Bodagen contains zero calories and GMOs. Our collagen is obtained from grass-fed and pasture-raised sources. Bodagen is manufactured in the US in facilities that adhere to GMP regulations by Coreceutimin, a trusted family-owned company that has been making health products for 25 years, using only the highest quality ingredients. The Science Behind Silica Silica is the most abundant element on our planet after oxygen. It can be found in water and in different kinds of plants. It is also one of the most abundant trace elements in the human body. Silica plays a very important role in keeping our bodies healthy. Fibroblasts are the most common type of cell found in the connective tissue. They are responsible for producing the backbone of our tissues as well as wound healing. Studies have shown that physiological levels of silica stimulated the synthesis of type I collagen by skin fibroblasts. Other studies have shown that fibroblasts are not the only types of cells that can synthesize more collagen thanks to silica. Osteoblasts are a type of cell that are similar to fibroblasts. They are responsible for synthesizing the different components of bones. Silica has also been proven to increase the synthesis of collagen by osteoblasts. Silica not only makes osteoblasts produce more collagen, but it can also stimulate their growth. Researchers think silica may even prevent the loss and weakening of bones by inhibiting the production of osteoclasts, the cells that break down bones. Other studies have shown that silica can increase the concentrations of hydroxyproline in the skin. Hydroxyproline is an amino acid and is one of the main components of collagen as well as playing a key role in maintaining the stability of collagen. Hydroxyproline is created in the human body when hydrogen atoms are grafted on proline, which is itself an amino acid. This is the most important process in the synthesis of collagen. This process is only possible thanks to an enzyme called prolyl hydroxylase. Scientists believe that the activity of prolyl hydroxylase is directly linked to the amount of silica in the body. Silica has been linked to the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans, a family of proteins comprising of hyaluronic acid as well as other proteins that play very important roles in keeping tissues healthy in the skin, eyes, tendons, bones, cartilage, blood vessels, and heart. Scientists think that hair strands with the highest concentrations of silica have a lower probability of falling and better brightness. Studies have also shown that silica may increase the speed of hair growth, reduce dandruff, and optimize blood circulation in the scalp. Silica also plays a major role in maintaining healthy nails as it is one of its main components. Silica has been shown to possibly help prevent nail infections.
