Description
Bovine Collagen Peptides
What is bovine collagen?
Our collagen peptides contain 18 amino acids, the building blocks of our tissues and the primary component of proteins. Glycine, Proline and Hydroxyproline represent around 50% of the total amino acid content.
The glycine and proline concentration are 10 to 20 times higher than in other proteins. As a result, our product offers health benefits that cannot be found in other protein sources.
Benefits of Proline and Glycine in BODYBALANCE
Our powdered bovine collagen contains higher percentages of the amino acids Proline and Glycine when compared to other dietary proteins, offering distinct benefits:
Proline - Helping to form new collagen, regenerating cartilage, forming connective tissue, healing the gut lining and aiding joint repair.
Glycine - Used to make powerful antioxidant Glutathione, which helps protect your cells against oxidative damage.
Bovine Collagen Benefits - Backed by Scientific Research
Several randomised, placebo-controlled, double blinded studies on our collagen peptide, have demonstrated the efficacy and potential of the daily intake of 15g BODYBALANCE in combination with resistance training.
114 healthy, physically inactive men, aged 35-60 participated in a study which revealed a statistically significant (p<0.05) increase in lean body mass after BODYBALANCE supplementation. It also resulted in improved muscle strength, a reduction of waist circumference and a statistically significant fat mass reduction.
Optimised for High Bioavailability and Bioactivity
To ensure bioactivity, it is essential to have exceptional bioavailability in the target tissues. Our hydrolysed bovine collagen peptide has been shown to have high digestibility and excellent absorption. More than 90% is digested and available as small peptides in the blood stream within one hour.
From the blood the peptides are transported into the target tissues, e.g. muscle infrastructure, cartilage, tendons, skin, bone, where they act as building blocks for the local cells and help boost the production of new collagen fibres.
Added UC-II Chicken Collagen:
We have also added 40mg of a patented form of un-denatured type II collagen (collagen is not processed by high heat or chemicals) derived from chicken sternum cartilage. In clinical studies it has been shown to improve knee joint extension and alleviate the joint pain. See link to study:

Extra L-Glycine
In addition, We have added an extra 6 grams of Glycine per serving. Glycine is a non-essential amino acid, meaning the body can produce it, but it's also obtained from dietary sources.
Glycine is indispensable for collagen turnover due to its structural role in collagen molecules and its necessity for collagen synthesis. Ensuring adequate glycine intake through diet or supplementation can support efficient collagen production, crucial for maintaining healthy connective tissues, promoting wound healing, and ensuring the structural integrity of the body. Studies highlighting the benefits of Glycine:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5350494/
Added Vitamin C
We have also added Vitamin C to our powder collagen blend which increases the utilisation and generation of collagen within the body. Vitamin C interacts with the amino acids within the collagen cells. It adds hydrogen and oxygen to those amino acids, helping them to do their part in collagen production.
Unflavoured and Easy to Add to your Diet
Our premium quality bovine collagen peptides can be incorporated into any diet. The powder blends into drinks and smoothies quickly without clumping and has a neutral taste. It can also be mixed with foods.

The quality of our ingredients and the manufacture of our products is absolutely key to our ethos. We choose the companies we work with very carefully and we only use the best manufacturers in the UK for the blending, encapsulation and tubbing of our products. It is important to us that they are regulated and adhere to the highest industry standards. The manufacturers we work with have the accreditations listed below.
The manufacturing facilities we use are also fully GMP certified. GMP covers everything from manufacturing procedures to personnel, premises, equipment, storage and transport – all have to meet exacting standards. The standard defined as GMP are the same principles that underpin pharmaceutical medicine.
We do not cut any corners, if we cannot produce a product adhering to these high standards then, we won't. In this way our customers can have complete confidence that the highest standards have been followed when manufacturing each and every one of our products.
BRC Food 8 - Issue 8 has been developed to specify the food safety, quality and operational criteria that are required to be in a place within a food manufacturing organisation. It aims to fulfil obligations in regard to legal compliance and customer protection.
Issue 8 focuses on the implementation of good manufacturing processes, in particular labelling and packaging. Another key focus is support for quality management systems as well as Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) based food safety programmes.
Sedex is home to one of the world’s largest collaborative platform for buyers, suppliers and auditors to store, share and report on information quickly and easily. The platform is used by more than 40,000 members in over 150 countries to manage performance around labour rights, health & safety, the environment and business ethics.
ISO 14001 means having a system in place to help us manage our impact on the environment. This can be through reducing the amount of waste we put into landfill or by reducing the amount of electricity we use. People are also part of the environment and they need to be protected too, through proper health and safety protocol when dealing with products or being safe in the warehouse.
ISO 22000 is an international standard that defines the requirements of a food safety management system covering all organisations in the food chain from “farm to fork”. It is based on Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) as the main tool for identifying risks and their associated controls.
Every batch of product that arrives at our manufacturer warehouse is subject to FTIR testing. This provides us with a chemical fingerprint of the material to confirm the chemical structure of the product is as expected.
For pesticide residues, compliance with Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 is the ensured benchmark and verified by obtaining supplier assurances. The analytical team test any product deemed as high risk for pesticides to ensure they meet EU requirements.
We perform microbiological testing on all powders arriving at our warehouse. We perform further microbiological testing during the approval stage to verify the supplier specification.
As part of authenticity testing, where it is deemed necessary during approval, a product may be sent for C-14 testing. This allows us to effectively check whether a material has been adulterated with a synthetic substance and labelled as a natural product, providing food fraud assurances.
Further contaminants associated with food products and covered under Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006 are checked for compliance by our approval team. This includes nitrate, mycotoxins, 3-MCPD, dioxins, polychlorinated biphenyls, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), solvents (apart from water), acrylamide, antibiotics, and melamine. Our approval team risk assess whether the material may be at risk and obtain assurances or testing from the manufacturer.
Third Party Testing
We are performing third party testing on selected products to verify and provide assurances to our customers that what is stated on the label is exactly what is in our products. Honesty and transparency are a core part of our values. Few supplement companies invest in this level of testing, but we believe our customers deserve it. It demonstrates that we are completely confident about our products, their ingredients, and their quality.
The third-party testing is carried out by Eurofins, a world-renowned testing company with leading laboratories. They maintain the highest standards in all aspects of their work.

welcome to lls
Hi, I'm Ben. I founded Love Life Supplements in 2012 with a clear mission - to help as many people as possible achieve optimal health by providing high quality, highly effective nutritional supplements, with nothing unnecessary, unhealthy or 'nasty' added, and manufactured to the highest possible standards in the UK.
I'm a bit of a health freak and was frustrated with the lack high quality supplements on the market, with clear and transparent labelling. I knew we could do better, hence LLS was born.
"Live Healthy, Love Life."
