Jellice Co., Ltd. is a pioneer of gelatin/collagen research and development, Collagen Tripeptide (CTP), produced after many years of studies by Jellice, is an advanced material with new functionality not available in conventional collagen products.
The key to many features of this new functional component called CTP is its size. It is the minimum unit of collagen composed of 3 amino acids, and therefore it can be absorbed quickly in our body and deliver superior performance.
The research on functionalities of CTP is being continued, and is expected to extend to the field of preventive medicine, in addition to cosmetics and healthy food fields.
This website introduces the benefits of CTP and its scientific basis and shows some research results.
- CTP is absorbed from the digestive tract quickly and effectively
- CTP is incorporated into the connective tissues (skin, bone, cartilage, etc.) preferentially.
- CTP helps skin recover and keep its health by promoting production of hyaruronic acid
- CTP helps bone recover and keep its health by promoting synsethis of 'collagen' and 'calcium'
- CTP helps Achilles tehdon recover from aging damege or rupture
- CTP helps knee joint keep its health and prevent Osteoarthritis by promoting synsethis of 'type II collagen' and 'hyaruronic acid'
- CTP helps blood vessel keep its flexibility and inihibit occurrence/advancement of atherosclerosis
- CTP shows high safety in toxicity, antigenicity, and allergenicity tests
