Vegan Collagen Complex is a plant-based amino acid complex that provides the body with the specific amino acid building blocks used in normal collagen formation without any animal-derived ingredients. Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body. The body produces collagen by linking amino acids - primarily glycine, proline, hydroxyproline, and lysine in specific sequences.
