What is the difference between Marine Collagen Peptides and Collagen Peptides?

Follow

The main difference between Natural Force® Marine Collagen Peptides and Organic Grass-Fed Collagen Peptides is their source and collagen types.

Marine Collagen Peptides

• Made from wild-caught Alaskan cod
• Sourced from fish skin and scales
• Contains approximately 99.9% Type I collagen
• Hydrolyzed into smaller collagen peptides
• A good option for people who avoid beef products

Organic Grass-Fed Collagen Peptides

• Made from bovine (beef) hides
• Contains Type I and Type III collagen
• Sourced from USDA Organic, grass-fed, pasture-raised cattle

Which one should I choose?

Both provide collagen peptides, so the choice mainly comes down to your dietary preferences, source of preference, and any allergies or sensitivities.

Marine Collagen may be a good fit if you prefer a fish-based collagen or avoid beef. Organic Grass-Fed Collagen may be a better fit if you prefer a bovine source or want a combination of Type I and Type III collagen.

In short: Marine Collagen is fish-sourced and primarily Type I collagen, while Organic Grass-Fed Collagen is bovine-sourced and contains Types I and III.
