About this supplement

Verisol is a specific brand of bioactive collagen peptides produced through enzymatic hydrolysis of type I collagen derived from bovine sources. These peptides are characterized by their low molecular weight (approximately 2-5 kDa), which enhances bioavailability and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. Unlike generic collagen, Verisol peptides are designed to be bioactive, meaning they can stimulate specific biological responses in target tissues, particularly in skin and connective tissue. The proprietary enzymatic process yields specific peptide sequences (e.g., Pro-Hyp, Gly-Pro-Hyp) that have been clinically studied for their ability to promote fibroblast activity, increase collagen and elastin synthesis, and reduce collagen fragmentation. It is primarily used as an oral supplement for skin, hair, nail, and joint health.

Chemical ID (CAS)

9064-67-9 (for collagen hydrolysate)

Physical properties

Fine, off-white to light yellow powder. Typically odorless with a neutral taste. Highly soluble in cold water, forming clear or slightly opalescent solutions. Hygroscopic (absorbs moisture from air).

How it’s made

Produced via controlled enzymatic hydrolysis (using proteases like trypsin, pepsin, or bacterial enzymes) of purified, native type I collagen extracted from bovine hide or bones. The process involves cleaning, demineralization, and alkaline treatment of raw material, followed by extraction of collagen, enzymatic digestion to specific peptide sizes, filtration, sterilization, and spray-drying to produce a powder.
