PURE PROTEIN PEPTIDES
4 TYPES OF COLLAGEN
TYPE I Hydrated & elastic skin. Hair & Nail strength and growth. Found in bones, tendons, & ligaments.
TYPE II Foundation component of cartilage. Supports healthy joint mobility, cartilage, tendons.
TYPE III Supports structure of muscles, blood vessels, organs, artery health. Improves skin elasticity and hydration.
TYPE IV Assists wound healing. Found in the ‘basement membrane’ of skin & tissues — sheet-like structures important for cell behaviour.
Based on clinical trial findings, a 10g daily dose of UNCHARTED® Marine Collagen provides improvements in fine lines and wrinkles, skin elasticity, smoothness and firmness, and skin hydration and moisture in as soon as 6 weeks. Learn more.
Our manufacturing process only uses by-products from the food fish industry that would otherwise go to waste. The species of fish are regulated by quotas, season of catch, and catch/fishing methods.
UNCHARTED® Marine Collagen is double hydrolysed for increased effectiveness. It's produced through a proprietary multi-stage enzymatic treatment for optimal absorption.
What this means for you? The protein molecules are broken into smaller molecules to be quickly absorbed, digested and distributed throughout the body for maximum benefit.
LETS DIVE DEEPER
Ageing and stress can deplete collagen in the skin causing wrinkles, sagging and loss of elasticity. Based on clinical trial findings, a 10g daily dose of UNCHARTED® Marine Collagen provides improvements in fine lines and wrinkles, skin elasticity, smoothness and firmness, and skin hydration and moisture in as soon as 6 weeks.

Taken after a workout, collagen may assist in performance and muscle recovery. Research has shown that supplementing collagen peptides can boost muscle proteins like creatine.
Collagen is a major component of connective tissue and plays a crucial role of holding the body's cells together. Did you know your bones also contain collagen? More than collagen than calcium, in fact. Collagen makes up over 90% of bone's structure. Additionally, supplementing hydrolysed collagen is thought to stimulate cartilage metabolism and activate healthy cartilage turnover.
Supplementing collagen can help repair the gut lining by enhancing its tight junctions, or in other words, the intestinal barrier structures. If your intestinal barrier is impared this can lead to inflammation and digestive issues.
Hydrolysed collagen peptide supplementation has been shown to increase nail growth and improve brittle nails.
Collagen supplies amino acids that your body uses to build new proteins including keratin, the protein your hair is made of. Collagen fights free radicals that damage hair follicles, protects against cell damage to maintain hair colour, prevent hair thinning.
UNCHARTED MARINE COLLAGEN FAQS
Collagen is the most abundant protein found in the body. It's found in the skin, cartilage, gut, blood vessels, connective tissue, cornea, bones, intervertebral discs and more. Think of it as the 'glue' in your body holding everything together.
With age, the ability to replenish collagen naturally decreases. One study reports a peak in collagen between 25-34 years old, followed by a gradual decline equating to an approximate 25% decrease over 4 decades.
UNCHARTED Marine Collagen is produced from the skins of wild, deep-sea ocean fish such as cod, haddock and pollock. Unlike farm-raised fish and other animals, wild-caught fish have no possibility of being exposed to antibiotics or hormones. Our way of doing costs more, especially being a small family start-up -- but to us, quality is paramount. We could have easily sourced less superior collagen at a fraction of the price. But trust us when we say, we got you. We will never compromise on quality.
Multiple Types Present in UNCHARTED Marine Collagen: Contains Type 1, 2, 3, & 4
UNCHARTED Marine Collagen is made without any additives -- definitely no fillers or preservatives -- but also no added ingredients like flavours, herbs, vitamins or other substances. Just pure, effective, single-ingredient wild-caught marine collagen powder that you can use in a variety of ways and get more out of it.
UNCHARTED Marine Collagen is double hydrolysed for increased effectiveness. It is produced through a proprietary multi-stage enzymatic treatment for optimal absorption. UNCHARTED Marine Collagen is more bioavailable than other sources of collagen such as bovine (cow), meaning its smaller molecule size is more easily absorbed in the body. It has an average molecular weight of 1.75 kDa which is less than half the length of peptides found in farm-raised tilapia feedstocks.
You can add UNCHARTED Marine Collagen to beverages & food.
Beverages: Try a scoop in plain water, coconut water, coffee (our favourite way to consume it), hot tea, juice.
Food: Try adding a scoop to boost your oatmeal, soup, smoothies, pancake batter, yogurt, and even scrambled eggs (like our founder Andrew does).
Standard daily dose: 5 grams / 1 scoop.
For boosted results: 10 grams daily / 2 scoops. You can split up the servings over the day. For example, 1 scoop in your morning BODY CHARGE Coffee and 1 scoop in plain water later in the day.
UNCHARTED Marine Collagen is unflavoured and has a neutral taste when mixed in plain water. When mixed into foods and beverages you wouldn't know it's there.
Yes! UNCHARTED Marine Collagen fully dissolves in hot and cold beverages. Pour it in & give it a stir.
If you're having it in your coffee or tea or just plain water, we have a tip:
Put the collagen first into your empty glass or mug. Then pour the liquid in and give it a stir to dissolve. You can do the opposite (liquid first, collagen second), but it dissolves faster when you do collagen first, liquid second.
Store in the cupboard or benchtop. Keep dry. Do not store in the fridge or freezer.
Tested for purity
Tested by accredited third party laboratories for purity, safety and allergens.
Our marine collagen is manufactured in a fish-only facility and is therefore not in contact with any other allergens and suitable for various lifestyles and diets. Using wild caught white fish keeps our collagen away from direct impact of hormones, antibiotics and contaminants, whereas competitor marine collagens source from bottom feeders farmed in China.
Free from additives, fillers, sulfites, preservatives, gluten, soy, sugar, GMOs and flavourings. Paleo Friendly, Keto Friendly, Kosher & Halal Approved.
