Vitakruid Matcha Collagen with Sunmatcha & Solugel 150.00 Gram

Vitakruid Matcha collagen with sunmatcha & solugel

Collagen Solugel® Matcha
Collagen Solugel® Matcha is a unique combination of two pure ingredients: hydrolyzed Solugel® collagen and organic SunMatcha® Kokyu from Japan.

Solugel®: pure collagen type 1
For Collagen Solugel® Matcha, Solugel®, a high-quality ingredient from a leading collagen producer, was deliberately chosen. Solugel® is known for its quality and effectiveness, and has been extensively tested. It contains only type I collagen, the most common type of collagen in the skin.

SunMatcha® Kokyu: organic matcha from Japanese tea gardens
SunMatcha® Kokyu is an exclusive matcha powder directly from Japan. This makes it part of the rare group of Japanese matchas that represent only 5.7% of global matcha production. The tea leaves are grown in Japan's best matcha regions: Shizuoka, Mie, Aichi, and Kyoto. Thanks to the favorable climate and mineral-rich soil, these areas produce green tea of exceptional quality. SunMatcha® Kokyu is carefully cultivated here using age-old methods, resulting in matcha that is both pure and powerful.

Soft taste and versatile use
Collagen Solugel® Matcha is designed for hassle-free daily use. Thanks to its fine powder form, it blends effortlessly into both hot and cold drinks, without lumps and with a smooth texture.

The addition of SunMatcha® Kokyu gives this blend a refined character. This organic matcha from Japan is known for its soft, creamy taste with a subtle sweetness and a mild, earthy undertone.

More of a fan of a collagen matcha latte? Use 1-2 scoops of Collagen Solugel® Matcha to taste, add 100 ml of water and 150-200 ml of (plant-based) milk. For a sweeter taste, you can optionally add a tablespoon of honey.

Hydrolyzed collagen for optimal absorption
The collagen in Collagen Solugel® Matcha comes from cattle and is converted into bioactive peptides through natural hydrolysis. Thanks to this process, the collagen molecules are reduced to 3.3 kilodaltons and are rapidly absorbable. This means the collagen is traceable in the blood within 15 minutes of intake.

Optimal amino acid profile: high in glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline
What makes this formula special is the high concentration of glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline – three amino acids that together make up about 55% of the total composition. This unique composition supports the structure and elasticity of your skin from within.

Matcha with fourfold standardization
Collagen Solugel® Matcha is enriched with SunMatcha® Kokyu, a high-quality matcha with a fourfold standardization. Each serving contains not only collagen but also a precisely adjusted ratio of bioactive substances: 23 mg caffeine, 8.5 mg L-theanine, 105 mg polyphenols, and 42 mg EGCG.

In addition, SunMatcha® Kokyu is naturally rich in antioxidants, flavonoids, vitamins, and minerals. These substances naturally support your body and make this blend a nutritious addition to your daily routine.

The traditional production process of SunMatcha®
The quality of matcha begins with cultivation, and with SunMatcha® Kokyu, this is entirely rooted in ancient Japanese traditions. Every step in the process is aimed at preserving nutritional value, taste, and purity.

1. Shading technique: 30 days before harvest, the tea bushes are covered to stimulate the production of polyphenols and antioxidants.
2. Ichibancha and Nibancha: hand-picked harvests: only the youngest leaves from the first and second harvests are hand-picked for the best quality.
3. Steaming to preserve freshness and nutrients: immediately after picking, the leaves are briefly steamed to prevent oxidation and preserve the fresh aroma.
4. Slow drying for maximum quality: the leaves are slowly dried in multiple rounds to preserve nutrients and taste.
5. Freezer storage for optimal freshness: after drying, the leaves are stored at a low temperature for optimal freshness.
6. Removal of veins and stems: only the soft leaf green is used; veins and stems are carefully removed.
7. Traditionally ground with granite stones: the leaves are slowly ground into powder to preserve color, taste, and nutrients.

Responsible origin and guaranteed purity
The collagen peptides in this blend come from grass-fed cattle from Argentina. These animals live on animal-friendly farms in extensive pastures, where they are raised under natural conditions. Production is sustainable and fully traceable thanks to official certificates of origin – a guarantee of purity, quality, and transparency. Naturally, the collagen is free from hormones, antibiotics, or unnecessary additives.

The added matcha, SunMatcha® Kokyu, is also of exceptional quality. This is evident from the large number of accompanying certificates. This organic matcha from Japan is TRUE Matcha certified and is traditionally hand-harvested and processed. Certified according to both European (EU) and Japanese (JAS) organic standards and free from adulteration or unwanted additives. Moreover, each batch is extensively tested according to ISO 22000 food safety standards by the renowned Japanese tea company Ito EN, Ltd.
