FAQs

Collagen is a natural structural protein that represents almost 30% of the total body protein of mammals.  It is the major component of skeletal and connective tissue and provides structural support.  It is found throughout the body – in skin, muscle, tendon and bone.  Fibres of collagen are woven together like threads in fabric to form a framework into which new cells can grow. In the skin, collagen provides texture, resiliency, and shape.  From the age of 25, your body depletes collagen at 1.5% every year.  For instance by the time you reach 45, you will have lost 30% of your body's collagen. Taking 100% Collagen helps to make up for this loss.

It is a natural part of the ageing process.  The signs of aging are also accelerated with sun exposure, stress and smoking.  Fresh collagen production can drop by up to 40% from smoking. With sunlight, the UV rays can damage the skin and stop the production of collagen.

Collagen's effect on our appearance is well documented.  Research has shown that taking Puraz 100% Collagen provides support for:

• Reduced appearance of lines and wrinkles
• Improved skin elasticity
• Strengthened nails
• Strengthened hair
• Sleep support

Take two capsules, once daily, with or without food.

Many people report improvements soon after beginning to take Puraz 100% Collagen capsules.  Individual results may vary, but generally customers report noticeable changes to their hair, nails and sleep within the first month and then changes to skin after 3-4 months consistent usage.

There are no known side effects to the oral consumption of collagen capsules.  In over 16 separate clinical research studies involving over 2500 individuals, conducted over the past 20 years, no adverse reactions have been reported. If you are allergic to protein, you must seek medical advice before taking Puraz 100% Collagen capsules.

Puraz 100% Collagen is not known to interact with any medication with many customers taking it safely alongside their medication. However, if you are on medication, you should always consult your doctor before starting any dietary supplement.

Collagen injections target just one area, for example your lips, and are comparatively expensive.  Puraz 100% Collagen capsules are pain-free and much easier to take.  The benefit of the capsule is that collagen is dispersed throughout the entire body, not just to one area, with natural looking results.

Men and women around the world who want a more youthful appearance take Puraz 100% Collagen, as it helps to fight the signs of aging. Because of natural looking results, many leading beauty therapists recommend Puraz 100% Collagen as part of their non-surgical programme to help reduce the appearance of crow's feet, sagging, lines and wrinkles.

Puraz 100% Collagen is a pure, high quality form of collagen hydrolysate. Collagen in its natural state has a very large molecule size so is not very well absorbed by the body. Puraz 100% Collagen is a special form of collagen that has been hydrolysed, breaking down the collagen into small molecular fragments to enhance absorption into the body without effecting its beneficial components. The peptides in Puraz 100% Collagen have been hydrolysed to a specific short peptide length, making them easily digestible as well as highly bioavailable.

Puraz 100% Collagen was one of the first collagen supplements to hit the market. Our formula has been around for longer than most, and many have tried to replicate it.  Not all collagen supplements are equal. Puraz 100% Collagen has been continually tweaked and improved over the years to get what we consider to be the very best available in terms of its quality, pureness, absorption and effectiveness.

Puraz 100% Collagen is sourced from bovine (cow). We consider bovine collagen to be the superior form of collagen. Bovine collagen proteins have the closest resemblance to human collagen in molecular structure, so the body recognizes it and the bio-availability (absorption into the body) is better. In addition, fish (the other main source of collagen in the market) is a prevalent allergen, whereas bovine collagen is hypoallergenic.

For rapidly smooth facial skin, Puraz COMPLETE anti-aging day serum works on muscle nerve endings to help relax and prevent wrinkles, making it the perfect non-invasive alternative for beautiful skin.  It contains the active molecules Argireline and Matrixyl, powerful anti-wrinkle peptides.

For youthful, smooth skin, Puraz COMPLETE anti-aging night cream improves skin radiance and helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles and lines.  It contains the active molecule Matrixyl 3000, a powerful anti-wrinkle tetra-peptide.  Matrixyl 3000 penetrates the skin reaching fibroblast cells contributing to the appearance of youthful, smooth skin.  With added nutrients and kiwifruit extract it improves skin radiance.

This will depend how and where it is used.  The COMPLETE pack will typically last for approximately 6 weeks when 1 pump of the serum and 2 pumps of the cream are applied to the face concentrating on wrinkle prone areas. However, some people like to apply it to their neck and other areas of the body meaning they use the product quicker than others.  For Puraz Club members, your COMPLETE pack is shipped every 45 days by default. If you find it is taking you less or more time to use the product, we can easily change the shipment frequency at your request.

Yes.  The day serum is not a moisturiser so some people like to apply some after application of the serum.  After applying the serum, simply allow 5 minutes for the serum to absorb into the skin before applying moisturizer.

No.  Neither the day serum or night cream provides sunscreen protection.  You can apply sunscreen after application of COMPLETE. Simply allow 5 minutes for it to absorb into the skin before applying sunscreen.

COMPLETE does not generally cause any adverse reactions or skin irritations.  However, as a precaution, we recommend a patch test be carried out before using any of the product.

COMPLETE helps to synthesize collagen deposits beneath the skin.  COMPLETE has one of the highest rates of Collagen synthesis in the market - supporting Collagen uptake in skin cells by up to 93.1%.  Combining COMPLETE with Puraz 100% Collagen ensures the collagen replenishment provided by the capsules is maximised in the specific areas where it is applied and required most.

COMPLETE is a high end skin night cream and day serum using the most advanced technology available to the market at less than a third of the normal price, but with higher concentration of the key active ingredients.

By taking Puraz PRO-d you can enjoy support for - joint mobility & comfort, cartilage regeneration, lubrication of joints and cartilage, and optimal bone health.

As all people are different, the physical effects of taking PRO-d will vary from person to person and over different periods of time.  Just as your joint stiffness probably didn’t happen overnight, cartilage regeneration also takes time.  Many will experience initial benefits in the first month of taking the product, but full benefits are generally felt after 3-4 months of consistent usage.

Stir and dissolve one level scoop in a glass of water, once daily. One scoop may also be added to foods or non-acid fruit juices or cold beverages. The scoop is included inside the container.

Yes.  According to numerous scientific studies, there are no known interactions caused by the ingredients used in PRO-d.  There are no known reports of allergic reactions to PRO-d; however those with known allergies to protein should not take PRO-d without medical advice.

PRO-d is not known to interact with any medication with many customers taking it safely alongside their medication.  However, if you are on medication, you should always consult your doctor before starting any dietary supplement.

No.  PRO-d should not be taken during pregnancy or lactation.

No, it's not suitable for vegetarians due to the collagen originating from animal protein.

No.  PRO-d does not contain any sugar and is safe for diabetics to take.

Krill (Euphausia superba) are tiny shrimp-like crustaceans found in the Antarctic Ocean.

Yes.  Puraz 100% Krill Oil naturally contains omega-3 DHA/EPA fatty acids, phospholipids and natural antioxidants like astaxanthin, which gives its vibrant red colour.

It supports the heart & cardiovascular system, joint health & mobility, healthy brain function, antioxidant protection and helps prevent free-radical damage.

One of the main differences between krill oil and fish oil, is that krill oil naturally contains phospholipids in addition to the omega-3’s.  These phospholipids are responsible for krill oil’s bio efficiency, helping to facilitate the uptake of the omega-3s into the cells. Another difference is that krill oil contains natural antioxidants like astaxanthin.

Yes.  Because of krill oil’s unique biochemical composition the DHA and EPA are better absorbed and utilized in the human body than regular fish oil.  Studies have shown that krill oil provides superior cardiovascular benefits at half the daily dosage of fish oil.

Puraz 100% Krill Oil is gluten free.  However the capsules may come into contact with traces of gluten from other products when manufactured.

No.  Puraz 100% Krill Oil is derived from krill which are a form of crustaceans; therefore this product is not to be taken by those with shellfish allergies.

Krill is caught from the pristine waters of Antarctica and only eat at the lowest end of the food chain.  They are therefore less infused with metals that are normally found in larger marine life.  Even so, Puraz 100% Krill Oil has been tested and is free from any heavy metals, mercury, dioxins and pesticides.

Puraz 100% Krill Oil is from a natural source.  The krill is harvested from the pristine waters of the Antarctic via a sustainable process.

No.  Puraz 100% Krill Oil only uses krill harvested from the southern Antarctic Ocean which is under strict regulation.  In 1982, krill nations bordering the Antarctic Ocean formed a treaty organisation; the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) to ensure that krill were being harvested in a sustainable way.

This is not essential, but studies do show better absorption when taken with food.

No.  Do not take Puraz 100% Krill Oil during pregnancy or lactation, unless otherwise advised by your doctor.

Cholesterol is a waxy, fatlike substance that is naturally present in cell walls or membranes everywhere in the body.  Your body uses cholesterol to produce many hormones, Vitamin D, and the bile acids that help to digest fat.

The most common causes of high cholesterol are all related and include a high fat diet, inactivity, and obesity.  Less commonly, genetic causes can decrease the ability of the body to metabolize cholesterol or cause the liver to produce too much cholesterol.

HDL (high-density lipoprotein) -"good cholesterol” has a protective effect on the body, helping carry cholesterol away from organs to the liver where it can be removed.  LDL (low-density lipoprotein) - "bad cholesterol“ - which transports fatty deposits to the tissues causing a build-up on the artery, restricting blood flow and increasing the risk of heart disease or stroke.

Triglycerides are a type of fat found in your blood. Your body uses them for energy.  High triglycerides can raise your risk of heart disease.  Blood tests to measure your cholesterol almost always include a measure of your triglyceride levels. Generally, diet and lifestyle changes will help to bring triglycerides to a healthy level.

Cholesterol Manager is a blend of clinically researched natural ingredients that support healthy cholesterol levels.  A cutting-edge creation based on the latest scientific research, its six key active ingredients work to support both sources of cholesterol:  (1) internal - in the liver and (2) external - via food. Cholesterol Manager also provides potent antioxidant support for cardiovascular health.

It contains a unique blend of polymethoxylated flavones from citrus peel, tocotrienols from sustainable palm oil, policosanols from sugar cane wax, theaflavins from black tea extract, phytosterols derived from soy, and curcuminoids from turmeric.

Cholesterol Manager supports the maintenance of healthy cholesterol levels by providing support for healthy cholesterol production in the liver.  It helps in the healthy balance of HDL and LDL cholesterol whilst also helping to decrease the absorption of dietary cholesterol from the gut.  For optimum results, use Cholesterol Manager in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise.

Cholesterol Manager is a cutting-edge natural formula based on the very latest scientific research.  It offers six of the most effective natural ingredients for supporting healthy cholesterol levels, at optimal doses. Cholesterol Manager targets both sources of cholesterol for total cholesterol management.

As all people are different, the physical effects of taking Cholesterol Manager will vary from person to person and over different periods of time.  Some people will start to notice improvements immediately but for most people it will take 3 to 4 months of consistent use before results will be really seen.  For optimum cholesterol management, it is best to combine Cholesterol Manager with a healthy diet and exercise program.

Yes.  Cholesterol Manager is gluten free.  However the capsules may come into contact with traces of gluten from other products when manufactured.

This is not essential, but to get maximum results from Cholesterol Manager it is best to take it 30 minutes prior to your main meal when and where you can.

Cholesterol Manager is generally very safe and has no known adverse effects, however everyone is different and so we encourage anyone with a medical condition to consult with their licensed health care provider to ensure this product is right for them.

CoQ10 is a vitamin-like nutrient that plays a vital role in cellular energy production.  It also functions as an important antioxidant.  CoQ10 is found throughout the body with the highest concentrations in the cells of organs that require large amounts of energy such as the heart.

CoQ10 participates in the body’s generation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy on which the body runs.  CoQ10’s role is similar to that of a spark plug in a car engine - without that initial spark, the human body cannot function without CoQ10.

It supports a strong healthy heart, your circulation, energy levels and helps maintain well-being.  A powerful antioxidant, it supports a healthy immune system.  It also offers essential CoQ10 support for those taking cholesterol lowering statin medication.

No, not everyone needs to take a CoQ10 supplement.  In young and healthy individuals, the body produces adequate levels of CoQ10.  However, as people age, the ability of the body to produce and metabolize CoQ10 declines. This can be due to a number of reasons including insufficient dietary intake, disease, oxidative stress, or certain medications such as statin drugs which have been shown to deplete levels of CoQ10 in the body.

The average diet supplies only a small amount of CoQ10.  It is difficult to get enough in your diet to significantly affect blood levels.  CoQ10 is found in relatively small amounts in a wide variety of foods, with the highest amounts found in organ meats such as heart, liver and kidney, as well as beef, sardines, mackerel, and peanuts.  However, it is not practical to consume the amounts required to obtain a reasonable amount of CoQ10 from dietary sources.  To put dietary CoQ10 intake into perspective, 500g of sardines, 1kg of beef, or 2kgs of peanuts, provide only 30mg of CoQ10.  The best way to get CoQ10 in a concentrated form is through daily supplementation.

Puraz CoQ10 enhanced formula offers superior absorption to regular forms of CoQ10.  It is 100% naturally fermented and the molecular structure of it is identical with the human body.

Puraz CoQ10 is microencapsulated ubiquinone.  This is a process by which oil-soluble ingredients, such CoQ10, can become soluble in water.  This process ensures Puraz CoQ10 offers greater stability and superior absorption to conventional fat-soluble CoQ10 supplements which are difficult for the body to absorb.

At present, we believe the best form of CoQ10 is an enhanced water soluble ubiquinone that offers superior absorption to ordinary ubiquinone such as Puraz CoQ10.  The ubiquinol form is being heavily marketed as being superior to the more traditional ubiquinone form by being more “bio-absorbable”.  There is simply not enough research to support these claims.  There have been very few studies in humans done on ubiquinol, compared to many hundreds of clinical trials done with ubiquinone.  The facts are that the human body easily converts ubiquinone into ubiquinol.  Outside of the body, ubiquinol tends to be very unstable.  Ubiquinone is the more stable compound and the body tends to use it every bit as much as ubiquinol, freely converting back and forth between the two forms as needed.

No, there are no known side effects and Puraz CoQ10 is generally very well tolerated.

Yes, it is best to take CoQ10 with food to achieve maximum absorption.

No.  Due to the fact that no studies have been done in this area, if you are pregnant or a feeding mother do not use Puraz CoQ10 without professional medical advice.

A high-strength natural formula, Inflamox incorporates the latest ingredients to soothe muscles, joints and nerves.  It's a non-greasy, soothing cream that has no lasting odour.

Inflamox contains capsaicin which is derived from the seeds and membranes of chilli peppers, and is the chemical that makes chillies hot. Inflamox also contains arnica, ginger, and St. John's Wort oil along with peppermint oil and menthol.

Yes, all of the active ingredients used in Inflamox are totally natural.  No pharmaceutical drugs or medicines are used in Inflamox.

Inflamox has been specifically formulated for people who need day-to-day rapid relief for joint mobility, muscular and nerve issues.

Inflamox works through topical application to the affected area.  Its active ingredients work synergistically, quickly penetrating deep to provide rapid relief to the affected area.

Simply, apply Inflamox by rubbing gently into the affected area.  It offers an immediate warming and soothing effect soon after application so it begins to provide relief relatively quickly.

This is down to personal preference and the type of issue being addressed.  Inflamox is a quick penetrating formula so apply small amounts at first, and then increase as required.

Telomeres are buffers, protective pieces of DNA material at the ends of each and every chromosome in every cell in the body. Telomeres perform a similar role to the plastic tip at the end of a shoelace. Like these plastic tips that keep shoelaces from becoming damaged or frayed, telomeres protect our chromosomes from the critical shortening and damage that may ultimately lead to cellular death and loss of health. Our telomeres are essentially a bio-marker of our age, or "genetic time clock" getting shorter and shorter throughout our lifetime, until they reach a point where our cells cannot divide any further, and we die of old age.

Studies have shown links between shorter telomere length and various types of diseases. Conversely, longer telomeres are linked to healthy aging and overall longevity.

Telomerase is our body's own naturally produced enzyme that is commonly referred to as the 'fountain of youth'. Telomerase counteracts telomere shortening by rebuilding and replenishing the ends of the chromosomes to keep cells (and you) healthy. If telomerase enzyme levels are high, the telomere length is maintained and our cells can be replicated more completely, rather than degrading over time.

Telomere Health contains astragalus extract (including 10% Astragaloside IV) and selenium to support the body's increase of telomerase enzyme, along with baicalin, glutathione and a New Zealand made antioxidant complex to protect against the oxidative stress that causes telomere shortening.

Produced from the latest research available on telomeres, Telomere Health contains nutritional ingredients that are proven to support the two major causes of telomere shortening, 1) loss of telomerase and telomerase activity, and 2) oxidative stress. Most other products on the market will generally only target one of these areas.

Results and benefits will of course vary from person to person. Some people experience improved energy, well-being, and even more. Others do not report "feeling" any differently, but continue to take Telomere Health in the knowledge that its active ingredients are backed up by scientific research and they are supporting their telomere health and telomerase activity.

Yes. Research shows that positive lifestyle changes can not only maintain but also increase your telomere length. Stress management techniques such as yoga, exercise and a healthy diet have been shown to have a positive impact on telomere length and telomerase activity. We recommend combining Telomere Health with good lifestyle choices for optimum health and longevity.

No. Due to the fact that no research has been done in this area, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding do not use Telomere Health without professional medical advice.

No, there are no known side effects and Telomere Health is generally very well tolerated.

Petifort is the advanced animal joint formula. A leading-edge formulation using the latest scientific research available, Petifort works to increase your pet's overall mobility and quality of life.

Petifort is easy to administer to your pet. Simply sprinkle powder evenly over, or mix into your pet's food using the enclosed scoop. Petifort is a great tasting powder that your pet will love.

Petifort provides support for joint mobility and comfort for your pet, repair of damaged cartilage, lubrication of joints and cartilage, and optimal bone health.

Petifort contains three key active ingredients: collagen hydrolysate - specially optimized bioactive collagen peptides to support cartilage regeneration; green-lipped mussel - a natural source of chondroitin sulphate, glucosamine sulphate and omega-3 fatty acids for optimal bone & joint health; and hyaluronic acid - a compound found naturally within the body to keep joints and cartilage lubricated.

Petifort also contains: vitamin C to support cartilage formation and maintenance; manganese to support bone and cartilage development; boron to build and maintain healthy bones; and selenium to support and protect cartilage whilst also providing your pet with an overall powerful antioxidant to maintain positive joint health.

As all pets are different, the physical effects of taking Petifort will vary from animal to animal and over different periods of time. Just as your pet's limited mobility and joint discomfort probably didn't happen overnight, cartilage regeneration also takes time. Initial improvements can be seen relatively quickly, but full benefits from the product are generally seen after 3-4 months of consistent usage.

Petifort is formulated using the very latest scientific research available. It is a great tasting powder your pet will love. It is very easy to administer, just sprinkle over or mix into your pet's food.

Petifort has been specifically formulated for dogs and cats, but can also be given to other animals in consultation with your veterinarian.

A multivitamin acts as an insurance policy. It can be a daily guarantee that your body is getting enough vitamins and minerals to function optimally and ensure any deficiencies or gaps in your diet are covered, so you are operating at 100% right now and in the future.

No. When choosing a multi, it is not only important to ensure dosages are at the correct level and that it contains all the necessary nutrients, but it’s just as important to check the actual form of vitamins and minerals being used. Many manufacturers use vitamins and minerals in their most common and often cheapest form – meaning they are poorly absorbed by the body and relatively less effective.

Puraz Men’s Multi uses a premium formulation incorporating a broad range of essential vitamins and minerals in their most biologically active and absorbable forms at the appropriate dosage. Men’s Multi incorporates activated vitamins and bioavailable minerals to ensure you can feel confident you are getting the full benefit from your multi. Men’s Multi contains a full vitamin B complex. Key minerals such as magnesium, selenium, boron and zinc are present in bioavailable, organic and chelated forms. Men’s Multi incorporates all of the fat soluble vitamins A,D,E and K including both forms of K2 (most multi’s will only have K1). Also, unlike many multivitamins on the market, Men’s Multi has a special form of lutein for eye health and citrus bioflavonoids for additional antioxidant support, and importantly added lycopene for supporting prostate health.

Men’s Multi has been scientifically formulated specifically for men. Although men and women mostly have the same dietary requirements, it is important a multivitamin is specifically designed for each gender as there are some subtle differences in requirements.

Men’s Multi does not contain iron, as research suggests that men should not take iron unless they have a medically diagnosed iron deficiency. While iron is a necessary nutrient, it’s required only in small amounts which men can usually get from their food.

We recommend that you consult with your doctor before using any multivitamin supplement. There are certain ingredients that can adversely affect some medications. For example, Men’s Multi contains vitamin K, so you shouldn’t take it while on warfarin therapy without medical advice.

You can take Men’s Multi at any time of the day.

It is not absolutely necessary to take Men’s Multi with food but many nutrients are best absorbed and utilized when they are ingested with food so that’s why we recommend they be taken with food.

We do not recommend exceeding the recommended dosage. Men’s Multi was formulated by a nutritional expert to deliver an effective dose of active ingredients that address daily needs and promote optimum health.

No. Men’s Multi is formulated specifically for men, aged 18+.

Bee Effects is a high end certified all-natural skincare range based on a combination of two of New Zealand’s most potent natural ingredients, pure bee venom and active manuka honey. The Bee Effects collection includes Anti-Aging Serum, Anti-Aging Day Cream, and Anti-Aging Night Cream for use over the face & neck.

The Bee Effects skincare collection works synergistically to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, smooth, firm and strengthen skin, nourish, hydrate and moisturise skin and repair and renew skin cells.

Yes. Bee Effects skincare is certified natural by the NATRUE seal. Only truly natural cosmetics are recognised by this seal. The NATRUE label sets a high standard when it comes to defining the naturalness of cosmetic products.

Many consumers care about not only what they put in their bodies but also what they put on their bodies. Increasingly, consumers wanting to do the right thing are taken advantage of by products marketed under the guise of being “natural” when many bear little resemblance to what a consumer would either expect or would be allowed under natural standards. Bee Effects skincare is certified natural by the NATRUE seal. NATRUE certification guarantees Bee Effects skincare collection contains only natural ingredients. It also ensures no animal testing, no synthetic fragrances and colours, no genetically modified ingredients, no petroleum and silicone oils and derivatives, and no irradiation of end products and botanical ingredients.

The Bee Effects skincare collection is based on a combination of two of New Zealand’s most potent natural ingredients, pure bee venom and active manuka honey. These two substances are proven, potent, anti-aging skincare ingredients.

Manuka honey is special as it contains an antibacterial ingredient called methylglyoxal (MG). The higher the level of MG in your manuka honey, the higher the effectiveness and benefit. Bee Effects skincare uses only high grade certified active manuka honey with an MG level of 830mg/kg (equivalent to UMF 20+). This high concentration of MG ensures our customers are getting a powerful premium anti-aging skincare range.

The Bee Effects skincare collection is all you need for your daily skincare regime. The full range consists of Anti-Aging Serum, Anti-Aging Day Cream, and Anti-Aging Night Cream for use over the face & neck. Each product can be used on its own but for best results (and value), all should be used together daily:
Morning – Cleanse. Apply Anti-Aging Serum. Allow serum to absorb then apply Anti-Aging Day Cream.
Night – Cleanse. Apply Anti-Aging Serum. Allow serum to absorb then apply Anti-Aging Night Cream.

No. Do not use if you have an allergy to bee stings or any of the listed ingredients. We recommend a patch test before use.

No. There is no pain involved in using Puraz Bee Effects skincare.

No. We ensure the bees are not harmed in anyway while sourcing our venom. For the collection of Bee venom, a glass sheet with a light electrical current running through it is placed near the bees. The current attracts the bees to sting the glass, which leaves the venom on the surface. Because the bees sting the glass sheet this ensures they don’t lose their stinger and are not harmed.

No. We do not test on animals.

This will depend how and where it is used. The Bee Effects pack will typically last for approximately 6 weeks. For Puraz Club members your Bee Effects pack is shipped every 45 days by default. If you find it is taking you less or more time to use the product, we can easily change the shipment frequency at your request.

No. You can apply sunscreen after the application of Bee Effects. Simply allow a couple of minutes for Bee Effects to absorb before applying your sunscreen.

No. Bee Effects does not have any collagen in it. Research shows that the collagen molecule is too large to be absorbed into the skin when applied topically. Do not waste your money on skin creams that promise to deliver collagen to the skin as this is not possible. The best way to replenish collagen is to use Puraz 100% Collagen capsules.

Collagen is a natural structural protein that represents almost 30% of the total body protein of mammals. It is the major component of skeletal and connective tissue and provides structural support. It is found throughout the body – in skin, muscle, tendon and bone. Fibres of collagen are woven together like threads in fabric to form a framework into which new cells can grow. In the skin, collagen provides texture, resiliency, and shape. From the age of 25, your body depletes collagen at 1.5% every year. For instance by the time you reach 45, you will have lost 30% of your body's collagen. Taking 100% Collagen Infusion helps to make up for this loss.

It is a natural part of the ageing process.  The signs of aging are also accelerated with sun exposure, stress and smoking.  Fresh collagen production can drop by up to 40% from smoking. With sunlight, the UV rays can damage the skin and stop the production of collagen.

Puraz 100% Collagen Infusion contains a special form of 100% collagen peptides that have been infused with New Zealand phenolic antioxidants. Research has shown that when taken regularly, the easy to swallow capsules support:

• Reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• Smoother and firmer skin
• Protection against the free radicals that can cause skin damage and aging
• Strengthening of hair and nails
• A healthy night’s sleep

Take three capsules, once daily, with or without food.

Many people report improvements soon after beginning to take Puraz 100% Collagen Infusion.  Individual results may vary, but generally customers report noticeable changes to their hair, nails and sleep within the first month and then changes to skin after 3-4 months consistent usage.

There are no known side effects to the oral consumption of collagen.  In over 16 separate clinical research studies involving over 2500 individuals, conducted over the past 20 years, no adverse reactions have been reported. If you are allergic to protein, you must seek medical advice before taking Puraz 100% Collagen Infusion.

Puraz 100% Collagen Infusion is not known to interact with any medication with many customers taking it safely alongside their medication. However, if you are on medication, you should always consult your doctor before starting any dietary supplement.

Collagen injections target just one area, for example your lips, and are comparatively expensive. Puraz 100% Collagen Infusion capsules are pain-free and much easier to take. The benefit of the capsule is that collagen is dispersed throughout the entire body, not just to one area, with natural looking results.

Men and women around the world who want a more youthful appearance take Puraz 100% Collagen Infusion, as it helps to fight the signs of aging. Because of natural looking results, many leading beauty therapists recommend Puraz 100% Collagen Infusion as part of their non-surgical programme to help reduce the appearance of crow's feet, sagging, lines and wrinkles.

Puraz 100% Collagen is not just another collagen capsule. It is a market leader for a reason. Using only the very finest quality ingredients available, 100% Collagen Infusion provides highly effective and visible results to the user.

Puraz 100% Collagen Infusion contains the purest, highest quality collagen peptides available. Collagen in its natural state has a very large molecule size so is not very well absorbed by the body. Puraz 100% Collagen Infusion contains a special form of collagen that has been hydrolysed, breaking down the collagen into small molecular fragments to enhance absorption into the body without effecting its beneficial components. The peptides in Puraz 100% Collagen have been hydrolysed to a specific short peptide length, making them easily digestible as well as highly bioavailable.

The 100% Collagen has been also been infused with New Zealand phenolic antioxidants, providing support for protection from the free radicals that can cause skin damage and aging. This special formulation of phenolic antioxidants are extracted from four New Zealand super fruits: grapes, boysenberries, blackcurrants and kiwifruit.

The 100% collagen peptides are derived from bovine (cow). We consider bovine collagen to be the superior form of collagen. Bovine collagen proteins have the closest resemblance to human collagen in molecular structure, so the body recognizes it and the bio-availability (absorption into the body) is better. In addition, fish (the other main source of collagen in the market) is a prevalent allergen, whereas bovine collagen is hypoallergenic.
