Where is collagen produced?

The first piece of advice is to research where the collagen is produced. There is a widespread assumption that most collagen is produced within the EU, but this is not necessarily the case.

Many collagen products are produced in countries such as China and India, and this is often reflected in the quality of the collagen. This is because these countries are not subject to the same legislation as countries in the EU, especially when it comes to the control and regulation of ingredients, working conditions and more. There may also be different standards for how the animals from which the collagen is obtained are raised, which can have an impact on the quality of the product as a whole.

At Copenhagen Health, all ingredients are produced in the EU, which means that our products comply with the quality standards and rules for food safety and animal and plant health set by the EU. This ensures not only that our products are of high quality, but also that they are produced under proper working conditions and with respect for the environment.

Is the product clinically and dermatologically tested?

Before you buy your collagen products, it is a good idea to check whether the collagen has been clinically and dermatologically tested. In short, the purpose of clinical tests is to assess the safety and effect of the collagen product on the body, while dermatological tests assess the product's suitability for use on different skin types and ensure that the collagen product is mild and gentle on the skin.

By choosing collagen products that have been clinically and dermatologically tested, you are guaranteed that the products are both safe to use and effective. The risk of choosing a product that has not undergone these tests is that it is unknown how the product will react with your skin and body, and in the worst case, it can cause allergic reactions and other serious side effects. Therefore, the safe way is to choose a collagen product that has undergone these tests – so you know that you are getting a real quality product that actually works.

Collagen from Copenhagen Health is clinically and dermatologically tested – with proven effectiveness. Read our customers' experiences with collagen from Copenhagen Health.

What ingredients are in the collagen product?

Always check the ingredients list before purchasing. Some collagen products contain additives, fillers, dyes and/or high amounts of heavy metals.

Some manufacturers add one or more of these ingredients to achieve, among other things, longer shelf life, better taste and more fullness.

If the collagen is extracted from animals raised on factory farms, it may contain high levels of heavy metals that the animals are exposed to through, among other things, diet and drinking water. Although heavy metals are absolutely essential for our health, there are certain ones that we should avoid in excessive amounts, as they can be directly harmful to our health. This applies to arsenic, cadmium and lead, among others. If you are in doubt about how much of a nutrient, including heavy metals, you should consume per day, you can check this further through the Norwegian Food Authority's guideline values ​​for maximum content in dietary supplements.

However, we always encourage you to choose the most natural and pure product option. This way you avoid unnecessary additives and chemicals that can be harmful to your body and well-being.

At Copenhagen Health, we have gone the extra step to ensure that our collagen products are of the highest quality.
