BeActive Collagen Shield is a cutting-edge collagen protection supplement powered by a specific, multi-fractional isolate of New Zealand Green-Lipped Mussel (GLM) called Mariplex GLM®. Sometimes referred to as the "curcumin" of the sea, this specific isolate helps protect all 28 types of collagen in your body, wherever they are found.
The subject of over 20 scientific studies, Mariplex GLM®, drives BeActive Collagen Shield's benefits with its unique ability to support healthy MMP (Matrix Metalloprotease) activity within normal levels. MMPs are enzymes that break down collagen-rich tissues as you age. While Mariplex GLM® affects various MMPs, the most important for supporting healthy collagen are Collagenase 1, Collagenase 2, Collagenase 3, and Stromelysin (which destroys collagen types III, IV, and X).
