Apollon Nutrition - Collagen Premium Peptides
Apollon Nutrition is known for the hardest-hitting supplements in sports nutrition, and they haven't stopped at their dual-source collagen. While this isn't considered a "hardcore" product in their line, it's just as effective in helping you look and feel radiant from top to bottom.
Today's world is taking its toll on all of us. Daily micro- and macro-stresses contribute to our aging faster, cause wrinkles, damage our joints and rob us of our youthful appearance.

Designed by a real Pharm. D. medical professional, Apollon Nutrition's Collagen is truly made for anyone who wants to bring back their youthful appearance and health. Apollon Nutrition has built its reputation on bringing you only the absolute best products money can buy, and they have spared no expense in developing dual-source collagen with premium peptides.
What differentiates Apollon Nutrition's collagen from its competitors?
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body, providing structure and support. It also plays a role in skin elasticity and joint integrity. Collagen is essentially the “glue” that holds your body together.
However, between the ages of 25 and 30, the body's ability to synthesize collagen continually declines, leading to aging, reduced skin elasticity, reduced recovery, slower wound healing, and limited joint mobility.
Several other factors can also adversely affect your body's collagen production, including:
- Excessive sugar consumption
- Prolonged exposure to sunlight
- Drink
- Smoke
- In addition, the modern diet is not very rich in foods that promote collagen production (e.g., bone broth, gelatin, etc.).
Fortunately, collagen peptide supplementation has been shown to be an effective and affordable way to support the body's natural collagen production, thereby supporting joint health, beauty, recovery and body composition. In true Apollon Nutrition style, they haven't just done the same thing as every other brand out there with collagen supplementation (i.e. 10-20 grams of collagen with a dash of hyaluronic acid).
Apollon Nutrition has combed through the research and evaluated the ingredient landscape to develop a superior option for those seeking a supplement that fits their demanding lifestyle. The result is Apollon Nutrition COLLAGEN!
The premium collagen supplement contains a unique blend of collagen peptides, vitamins and antioxidants that nourish, strengthen and hydrate your body's most important structures, helping you perform, recover and perform at your best!

Apollon Nutrition - Collagen Premium Peptides Ingredients:
NATICOL®
Collagen peptides have been extensively studied and found to provide a range of benefits related to joint health, skin firmness, wrinkle reduction, and more.
Naticol is a select blend of natural fish collagen peptides that offers high levels of purity, a robust nutritional profile and proven health benefits.
Marine collagen has been researched in both humans and animals and has been found to possess beneficial activities including:
- Anti-hypertension
- Anti-aging
- Anti-ulcer
- Longevity
- Supplementation with just 2.5 grams of Naticol per day has been shown to significantly improve skin firmness, texture and radiance.
Other studies show that supplementing with 10g Naticol per day for 12 weeks improves symptoms of osteoarthritis.
Additional animal studies suggest that Naticol supplementation may improve body composition and attenuate fat gain on a high-fat diet.
MARINE VS BOvine COLLAGEN Bovine collagen is the form of collagen used in most collagen supplements on the market. Although effective and safe, based on research, marine collagen peptide molecules are typically smaller than bovine collagen, meaning they are slightly more bioavailable and absorbable.
Both are rich in the key building blocks of collagen (proline, hydroxyproline, glycine, etc.), but marine collagen contains types I and II collagen.
For your information, Type I collagen is the form of collagen that is most prevalent in the body.
Bovine collagen mainly contains types I and III collagen.
DOES MARINE COLLAGEN TAST/SMELL LIKE FISH? For those of you worried about a “fishy” taste or smell with marine collagen, rest assured – Naticol is tasteless and odorless. It also blends easily, making it a great addition to smoothies, intra-workout or post-workout shakes, soups, oatmeal, yogurt, etc.
COLLAGEN II-XS™
KollaGen II-XS is a specialized collagen type II hydrolyzate proven to contain 55-70% collagen type II. It also contains 30-45% mucopolysaccharides (including chondroitin, glucosamine and hyaluronic acid), which serve as key components of articular cartilage. KollaGen II-XS is designed to support collagen production, soothe joints, reduce joint friction and support an active lifestyle.
Research has shown that daily supplementation with KollaGen II-XS can reduce pain and significantly improve joint comfort and functionality.
ASTRION™
Developed by NuLiv Science, Astrion is a premium blend of Astragalus membranaceus and Centella asiatica to support hydration, improve firmness and revitalize your skin.
Research shows that Astrion increases the production of type I collagen in the outer layer of skin (epidermis) by 60% and in the middle layer (dermis) by 80%. Additional studies suggest that Astrion supplementation may help reduce the number and appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This occurs through increased body production of collagen and hyaluronic acid as well as increased absorption of important collagen components such as proline and glucosamine.
HYALURONIC ACID
Hyaluronic acid is a component of the extracellular matrix and plays a key role in skin hydration. It's no wonder that hyaluronic acid (HA) has been identified as one of the markers for the appearance of skin aging.
Hyaluronic acid has a fairly short half-life, remaining in the blood for only 3-5 minutes, in the skin for less than 24 hours, and in the cartilage for 7-21 days.
Supplementing with hyaluronic acid at varying doses (120-240mg per day) has been reported to reduce wrinkles and promote more hydrated, youthful-looking skin.
Apollon Nutrition Collagen provides 200mg of hyaluronic acid per full serving.
DERMAVAL®
Developed by FutureCeuticals, Dermaval is a blend of “superfoods” (including pomegranate, mangosteen, coffee fruit and acai) that are rich in phytonutrients and antioxidants, including vitamin C, quercetin, anthocyanins and chlorogenic acid.
Research has shown that a low dose of Dermaval (50mg) significantly inhibited both elastase and gelatinase activity in human participants.
Elastase and gelatinase are two enzymes that break down proteins in the body, namely elastin (a protein that gives your tissues elasticity and strength) and gelatin (a form of collagen).
Inhibiting the action of these enzymes supports more endogenous collagen for better skin quality, improved healing and better recovery.
VITAMIN C
Last but not least, Apollon Nutrition Collagen contains 250mg Vitamin C. Vitamin C is not only a powerful antioxidant that helps fight oxidative stress (a factor that contributes to skin aging), but also supports the absorption and synthesis of collagen.
