What type of collagen is Landish marine collagen? Does the type matter?Updated 2 months ago
Landish marine collagen is Type I collagen (with a bit of Type III) — the most abundant collagen in your body.
However, don’t get hung up on “Type I” versus “Type II” or “III.” Once collagen is hydrolyzed, the amino acid profiles across types are so similar that it won’t make a real difference in quality or benefits. Any claims that one type (I, II, III, etc.) of hydrolyzed collagen is meaningfully superior for a particular function are just marketing hype.
Why Our Marine Collagen Stands Out (what actually matters)
Health Canada-Approved for Joint Pain: Not just for skin and beauty—our marine collagen is recognized for promoting collagen production in the body, supporting joint health and reducing joint pain associated with osteoarthritis.
Superior Absorption: Marine collagen’s naturally low molecular weight makes it easier to absorb, so you see results faster. Studies have shown high levels of collagen peptides in the bloodstream after ingestion.
Pure Source: Sourced from wild North Atlantic cod and haddock skins—free of hormones, antibiotics, and heavy metals like mercury—delivering top-tier, lab-tested purity in every lot. The same quality and purity simply cannot be achieved with bovine, porcine, or chicken collagen.
Choosing hydrolyzed collagen is about quality and bioavailability, not type, contrary to common marketing messages.
