Rousselot Debuts Peptan Collagen Peptides

SON, NetherlandsRousselot® will showcase its Peptan® collagen peptides to the nutraceutical and nutricosmetic industries at Vitafoods 2013 in Geneva May 14-16. This year, Rousselot has integrated Peptan into an Acti-Bone dairy shot promoting mobility, a high-protein pumpkin soup for the elderly, almond cookies and a tropical collagen water.

Peptan is available as a clean label and pure protein powder in different molecular weights and densities, making it easy to integrate into products. It's manufactured in plants in France and Brazil. The manufacturing process is rigorously controlled to ensure organoleptic properties and neutrality in terms of color, odor and taste.

Peptan collagen peptides have proven ability to help seniors stay active and mobile. Studies have shown that daily intake supports joint and bone health. As a pure protein, it can also support muscle regeneration and prevent sarcopenia. In a 2012 clinical study conducted by French laboratory, COSderma, the anti-aging benefits of Peptan F were confirmed. The study used skin assessment technologies like laser scanning to assess the effect of oral ingestion of fish collagen peptide Peptan F on the skin properties of volunteers, compared to a placebo.
