À propos de cet ingrédient
Hydrolysed marine collagen extracted from fugu (Takifugu rubripes) skin — a Yamaguchi Prefecture specialty. Shimonoseki has 80%+ of Japan's commercial fugu industry; fugu-skin upcycled into cosmetic-grade and supplement-grade collagen is a 2010s-onward value-add. Distinct from existing 'hokkaido-marine-collagen' (fish-broad-spectrum) entry. Fugu collagen's high glycine-proline composition gives it favourable bioavailability profiles. Used in beauty drinks, skincare, and joint-health supplements.
