Our multi collagen
Not all collagen is the same: a total of 28 different types of collagen are currently known. The individual types contain different amino acids that fulfil dedicated tasks in the human body - e.g. for the skin, joints, bones, blood vessels, organs and more.
Why multi collagen?
-
Essential types of collagen
Each type of collagen fulfills specific tasks in different tissues and organs of the body. The functions range from the firmness of the skin and the elasticity of cartilage to the stabilisation of tissue and ossification of cartilage (bone formation). With our specially formulated Multi Collagen in powder or capsule form, you can provide your body with a comprehensive supply of all essential collagen types.
-
Type 1 collagen
Type 1 collagen is mainly found in the skin, bones, tendons, ligaments, teeth and other connective tissue structures of the body. In the skin, it makes up a large part of the dermis tissue and is responsible for the elasticity, firmness and structure of the skin. In bones, collagen type 1 forms the scaffolding of the bone matrix, which is crucial for their strength and structure. In tendons and ligaments, it contributes to the flexibility and resilience of these tissues and enables movement and stability in the joints.
-
Type 2 collagen
Type 2 collagen is predominantly present in the hyaline cartilage tissue of the body, which covers the joints and protects them from friction and wear. It is also found in other cartilage tissues, such as the menisci, intervertebral discs and cartilage structures of the airways. Type 2 collagen is crucial to the structure and function of these tissues, allowing joints to move smoothly and maintain their health and integrity.
-
Type 3 collagen
Type 3 collagen is mainly found in connective tissue structures, especially in the reticular fibres of connective tissue. It is abundant in organs such as the liver, lungs, spleen and lymph nodes, where it supports the structure and function of these organs. In addition, collagen type 3 is present in the skin, particularly in the reticular layer of the dermis, where it contributes to firmness and elasticity. The main function of collagen type 3 is to provide structural support and strength to various connective tissue structures in the body.
-
Type 5 collagen
Type 5 collagen is mainly found in various types of connective tissue in the human body. It is particularly abundant in tissues such as the skin, tendons, ligaments and bones. In these tissues, collagen type 5 supports structural integrity and strength and contributes to the formation of stable collagen fibrils and networks. It is also found in other tissues, such as the eyes and blood vessels, where it also fulfils important structural functions.
-
Type 10 collagen
Type 10 collagen is predominantly present in cartilaginous tissues, particularly in hypertrophic cartilage formed during skeletal development. The main function of collagen type 10 is to regulate the formation and development of joints during skeletal development. During endochondral bone formation, collagen type 10 acts as a structural scaffold in hypertrophic cartilage, which is required for mineralisation and transformation into bone tissue.

The science behind Multi Collagen from the Kollagen Institut
-
Bioactive peptides vs. simple collagen
Not all collagen is the same. ‘Ordinary’ collagen is obtained by hydrolysis from animal raw materials. The special thing about our bioactive collagen peptides is that they are obtained in a highly controlled collagen production process, which is determined by the hydrolysis conditions. Through ‘enzymatic hydrolysis’, special collagen peptides are obtained that are optimised for their particular physiological function. This allows the peptides to be used specifically in the body to achieve desired effects, such as the stimulation of skin cells or bone cells.
-
Collagen metabolism
The aim of taking collagen peptides is to stimulate the body's own collagen metabolism and thus increase the collagen content in the body. This happens in two ways: Firstly, the bioactive collagen peptides provide the body with valuable building blocks in the form of collagen-typical amino acids. Secondly, they stimulate cell synthesis. Specifically, the peptides reach the respective target cells (fibroblasts, chondrocytes, osteoblasts) in the body via the bloodstream. By interacting with the cell receptors, they stimulate the cells to produce more extracellular matrix or bone matrix, including collagen and other components such as elastin, proteoglycans, hyaluronic acid, etc. This stimulates the body's extracellular matrix. This stimulates the body's own collagen metabolism and the body produces more collagen.
-
Fibroblasts (skin)
Fibroblasts are specialised cells that occur in various tissues of the body, especially in connective tissue. Their main function is the production and repair of components of the extracellular matrix such as collagen, elastin and proteoglycans. This matrix forms the basic framework of the tissue and supports its structural integrity and function. In the skin, fibroblasts are crucial for the production of collagen and elastin, which influence the firmness, elasticity and youthfulness of the skin.
-
Chondrocytes (cartilage)
Chondrocytes are specialised cells found in cartilage tissue. Their main function is to produce and maintain the extracellular matrix of cartilage. The extracellular matrix is a complex mixture of proteins, including collagen and proteoglycans, and other molecules that give cartilage structure, strength and elasticity.
-
Osteoblasts (bones)
Osteoblasts are specialised cells in bone tissue. Their main function is to build up bone tissue by producing and mineralising bone matrix. The bone matrix consists mainly of collagen fibres and other proteins that form the structural basis of bone.
-
Extracellular matrix (ECM)
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a complex network of proteins, glycoproteins and other molecules that surrounds cells in tissues and organs. It provides structural support, enables cell communication, regulates cell functions and stores growth factors. The ECM influences cell adhesion, migration, proliferation and differentiation, which is essential for tissue homeostasis and organ function. Disruptions can lead to diseases such as cancer and arthritis.

Let customers speak for us
from 308 reviewsIch habe bereits verschiedene Kollagen Pulver getestet, dieses Kollagen Pulver übertrifft bis jetzt alles, angefangen von der Wirkung bis zur Löslichkeit!
Wirklich geschmacksfrei, nicht wie andere Kollegen-Produkte, die ich früher probiert habe.
Scheint nach ungefähr vier Wochen gegen Falten und Alterszeichen zu wirken.
Verpackung und Design:
Das Kollagenpulver kommt in einem Glasbehälter, der ist hochwertig und wiederverwendbar. Alle wichtigen Informationen zu Inhaltsstoffen und Anwendung sind gut sichtbar und leicht verständlich aufgedruckt.
Inhaltsstoffe und Zusammensetzung:
Das Produkt enthält ein speziell optimiertes Kollagen aus Kollagen-Hydrolysat-Peptiden. Weitere Zusätze gibt es nicht. Das finde ich besonders gut, da viele Hersteller gerne noch allerlei unnötige (und billige) Zusatzstoffe reinmischen, so dass das Produkt dann 500g oder so hat, aber da gar nicht so viel Kollagen drin ist.
Geschmack und Anwendung:
Weiteres Highlight für mich: Kein Geschmack. Ich bin inzwischen jeden künstlichen Geschmack (Zitrone, Kirsche, Waldmeister, Ananas, etc. pp.) leid. Nicht nur schmeckt es irgendwann nicht mehr, sondern die Zusatzstoffe sind im Zweifel auf Dauer auch nicht so gesund. Anders hier. Das Pulver lässt sich schnell und problemlos in Wasser auflösen, ohne Klümpchen zu bilden. Top für die tägliche Einnahme.
Wirkung:
Nach mehrwöchiger, regelmäßiger Einnahme habe ich erste Verbesserung an meiner linken Schulter bemerkt. Ich habe jetzt auch keine Wunder erwartet, aber wenn es so weitergeht, bin ich zufrieden.
Habe mich die längste Zeit vor Kollagen gesträubt, da ich nichts einnehmen wollte, was vom Rind stammt. Dann habe ich die vegetarische Variante vom Kollagen Institut entdeckt. Für mich ist das Kollagen eine hochwertige, gut verträgliche Lösung, die sich in meinen Alltag integrieren lässt. Früher hatte ich mit Gelenkschmerzen zu kämpfen ... eine unangenehme Begleiterscheinung der Wechseljahre denke ich. Doch seit ich das Kollagen regelmäßig nehme, sind die Schmerzen verschwunden. Ein unerwarteter Bonus ist der positive Effekt auf meine Haut, was für mich ursprünglich eher zweitrangig war.
Die Kollagenkapseln sind angenehm klein und lassen sich leicht schlucken. Bei einer empfohlenen Dosis von 6 Kapseln pro Tag reicht eine Packung für einen Monat. Für alle, die Kollagen als Nahrungsergänzung nutzen möchten, ist dieses Produkt eine gute Wahl: Die Einnahme ist unkompliziert, und die Kapseln haben keinen unangenehmen Nachgeschmack. Insgesamt ein gutes Produkt, das ich empfehlen kann!
Ich verwende das Multi-Kollagen vom Kollagen Institut nun schon seit sechs Monaten und mische jeden Morgen einen Teelöffel (ca 5 Gramm) in eine Tasse schwarzen Tee. Das Pulver ist wirklich geschmacksneutral, was ich sehr schätze – andere Kollagenpulver hatten oft einen leichten Nachgeschmack, den ich hier nicht bemerke. Es löst sich auch hervorragend auf und bildet keine Klumpen. Bin komplett überzeugt von der Qualität und Zuverlässigkeit des Produktes - das Multi Kollagen ist und bleibt mein Lieblingskollagen.
hier meine ersten eindrücke: ich schmecke im kaffee gar nix, und im wasser vielleicht einen leichten fischgeschmack? bin nicht sicher, es stört aber auf keinen fall. löslichkeit ist top, vor allem sind die portionen (ein teelöffel) sehr angenehm. an den gelenken tut sich bislang nix (nach drei wochen), aber meine haare wirken etwas voller und kräftiger - kann auch einbildung sein, schwer zu sagen, aber was solls. soweit geht es in die richtige richtung. kann gerne weiterso gehen
Ich habe sowohl die Kapseln für meine Frau als auch das Pulver für mich bestellt. Leider war das Pulver nicht so gut für mich... fühlte mich ziemlich aufgebläht. Bin daher umgestiegen auf die Kapseln - die sind für mich viel besser verträglich! Bin nun ca vier Wochen dabei, und erste positive Anzeichen gibt es an meinen Knien...!
Die veganen Kollagenkapseln kamen in einem braunen Apothekerglas mit Schraubverschluss. Das Glas war versiegelt, das Etikett wirkt hochwertig.
Mit 180 Kapseln pro Glas reicht die Packung durchaus lange. Die Kapseln sind ok von der Größe (es muss ja auch etwas Produkt in den Körper) und lassen sich gut schlucken.
Die vegane Zusammensetzung ist für mich kein Muss, macht es aber für mich sehr angenehm, da ich weiß, dass ich hier keinem Tier schade. Überzeugend für mich ist, dass das vegane Kollagen in Studien einen Unterschied gemacht hat. Das ist bei den meisten Konkurrenzprodukten nicht der Fall.
Das Knochen-Kollagen hat mich positiv überrascht! Nach ein paar Wochen regelmäßiger Einnahme fühle ich eine deutliche Verbesserung in meinen Gelenken – sie sind weniger steif, und ich habe insgesamt weniger Beschwerden. Bin ein großer Pulver-Fan, ist für mich einfacher als Pillen. Kleiner Goodie am Rande: Meiner Haut gehts auch besser.
Kollagen speziell entwickelt für Haut Haare Nägel. Packung hat bei mir einen Monat gereicht. Typ 1 Kollagen vom Fisch. Anwendung ist unkompliziert: Einfach 4 Kapseln pro Tag einnehmen, fertig. Alles made in Germany, somit hohe Qualität. Daher klare Empfehlung.
Habe die Kapseln erneut bestellt, weil ich mit der Wirkung wirklich zufrieden bin. Gelenkschmerzen im Knie sind merklich besser geworden --- erleichtert meinen Alltag deutlich. Besonderes Highlight für mich: Das Produkt ist wissenschaftlich geprüft - das heisst hier wurden echte klinische Studien gemacht ob das Produkt was bringt.
Die Lieferung und Verpackung waren einwandfrei – das Kollagenpulver kommt in einem eleganten, hochwertigen Glas, was direkt einen positiven ersten Eindruck hinterlässt. Ich rühre jeden Morgen einfach einen Teelöffel in meinen Kaffee, und das Pulver ist zumindest für meinen Gaumen geschmacksneutral. So lässt es sich ganz mühelos in meine Morgenroutine integrieren. Angesichts der hohen Qualität des Produkts ist der Preis fair.
Habe das Kollagen für meine Mutter gekauft. Mit zunehmendem Alter nimmt ja die Knochenstärke ab und sie verträgt die Knochen-Medikamente nicht so richtig. Daher die Ergänzung durch Kollagen. Das Kollagen ist gut verträglich und sie hat keinerlei Nebenwirkungen wie zB Probleme bei der Verdauung. Bin mal gespannt, was das Ergebnis ist, wenn die nächste Messung der Knochenmineraldichte angeht... aber ich habe ein gutes Gefühl. Die Studien, die hier zum Kollagen gemacht wurden, sind überzeugend.
Sehr zufrieden. hilft für die hautpflege, mindert feine linien und verbessert die hautstruktur. hohe dosierung, zu 100% rein und ohne zusätze - genau das was ich gesucht habe. Supi supi supi

FAQs about multi collagen
What is collagen?
Collagen is a vital protein in the body. It is one of the building blocks of skin, bones, tendons, ligaments, muscles, hair, nails and cartilage.
Why add collagen?
As we age, the body's own collagen production decreases. On average, from the age of 25 onwards, the amount of collagen in the skin decreases by almost 2% per year. By the age of 60, most people have approximately 80% less collagen in their skin than they did at age 25.
Why add multi collagen?
Not all collagen is the same. There are a large number of so-called "collagen types". Each type of collagen fulfills specific functions and tasks in different tissues and organs of the body. Type 1, for example, is primarily responsible for the firmness of the skin, while type 2 contributes to the firmness and elasticity of cartilage. Type 5 supports the stabilization of tissues (e.g. hair), while type 10 plays an important role in the ossification of cartilage (bone formation). Our balanced Multi Collagen provides your body with a comprehensive supply of essential collagen types.
Why Multi Collagen from the Kollagen Institut?
Our product contains all essential collagen types, consists of 100% pure collagen without additives, is of the highest quality and is scientifically proven to be truly effective.
How quickly will I start to see first results?
Results vary based on metabolism, consistency, health, and age. Some customers have reported improvements within a few weeks, while others see gradual progress over months. Consistency with your supplement regimen is key for optimal outcomes.
How do I take multi collagen?
If you opt for the collagen powder, we recommend mixing the collagen into your favourite drink for daily use. Whether hot or cold, coffee or water, simply stir in two teaspoons and you have the perfect concoction. Alternatively, you can also stir the collagen into dishes such as soups. The collagen powder is neutral in flavour and easily soluble.
If you opt for the collagen capsules, we recommend taking the recommended daily dosage with a large glass of liquid at mealtimes.
