Peptides: What They Are & Why Collagen Peptides Matter
If you’ve been keeping up with beauty and wellness, you’ve probably heard of peptides. But what exactly are they, and why are collagen peptides (like the ones in Happy Glow) such a powerhouse for your skin, hair, and nails? Let’s dive in.
What Are Peptides?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids — the building blocks of protein. They act like little messengers in your body, signaling your cells to perform specific functions. Collagen peptides in particular tell your body to rebuild and restore collagen, which naturally decreases with age.
Why Collagen Peptides?
Collagen itself is a large, complex protein that’s harder for your body to digest. When it’s broken down into peptides, your body can easily absorb and put it to use. Once absorbed, collagen peptides stimulate cells (called fibroblasts) to produce new collagen and elastin — giving your skin, hair, nails, and joints the support they need.
Type I & Type III Collagen Peptides
Not all collagen is the same — in fact, there are 28 different types found in the body. Happy Glow contains the two most important for beauty and wellness:
✨ Type I Collagen – This is the most abundant type in your body, found in skin, tendons, bones, and teeth. It’s what gives skin its firmness and structure. Supplementing with Type I collagen helps smooth fine lines, improve skin elasticity, and support stronger hair and nails.
✨ Type III Collagen – This type is found alongside Type I in skin, muscles, and blood vessels. It plays a key role in maintaining skin elasticity, supporting circulation, and keeping connective tissue healthy. Together with Type I, it helps your skin look plumper and more youthful.
Why the 5,000mg in Happy Glow Matters
Many collagen products fall short on dosage, offering less than the clinical minimum (2,500mg). Happy Glow doubles that standard with 5,000mg of Type I & III collagen peptides per serving — meaning you’re getting enough to actually see and feel results.
Backed by research, collagen peptide supplementation at this level has been shown to:
Improve skin hydration and elasticity
Reduce wrinkles and fine lines
Support hair thickness and growth
Strengthen nails and reduce brittleness
Promote joint comfort and mobility
