Ideally before or after breakfast and before bed at night.

5. Why take collagen?
Collagen loss increases with age, and after the age of 25, unmaintained skin will begin to show fine lines around the eyes, enlarged pores, pigmentation, and signs of slight sagging. After the age of 30, problems such as nasolabial lines, neck lines, and sunken cheeks appear. The root cause of aging is the loss of collagen. Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body, accounting for more than 30% of the total body protein, 70%-80% of the skin component, and more than 90% of the skeletal cartilage tissue.

6. What is collagen tripeptide?
Collagen tripeptide and collagen look similar, but the absorption efficiency is completely different, and the effect is completely different! First, what are peptides? A peptide is a compound in which two or more amino acids are linked by peptide bonds, and a polypeptide with active activity is called an active peptide. Active peptides play a key role in the process of human growth and development, metabolism, disease, aging and death. Active peptides are the most important active substances in the human body. It is precisely because of the increase or decrease in the amount of endocrine in the body so that humans have cycles of infancy, childhood, adulthood, old age, and death. Therefore, supplementing active peptides can magically delay the effect of aging effectively. Collagen tripeptide uses fish scales or fish skins as raw materials, and uses advanced bioengineering technology to intercept small molecular structures that are useful to the skin in large collagen molecules. In addition to regulating physiological functions, collagen tripeptide also has high nutritional value. Its protein content is more than 90%, and it is composed of special amino acids, such as glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, with a molecular weight about 300D. 300D collagen tripeptide, with more than 50% tripeptide content, is the most efficient form of collagen known to be absorbed so far. Collagen tripeptide is in line with the needs of people in today's world to pursue nutrition and health. As a small molecule, it is also easily absorbed and utilized by the human body, does not cause allergic reactions, and also can promote the absorption of vitamins and minerals.

7. What are the 5 major purchasing criteria for collagen tripeptide?

Raw material
The raw materials will affect the absorption rate. Generally, the extraction sources of collagen include beef bones, pig skins, deep-sea fish, and farmed fish. The composition of fish collagen is closest to human skin cells and has a high absorption rate. Secondly, the activation temperature of fish collagen is only about 10 °C, while the activation temperature of collagen such as beef bone and pig skin is about 35 °C, and the source of extraction is unstable and there is a risk of disease, which is also a key factor that affects the absorption rate. Therefore, most of the collagen on the market is mainly deep-sea fish or farmed fish. In terms of raw material selection, 7GEM uses deep-sea fish collagen tripeptide. Deep-sea fish are almost free from environmental pollution, and there is no worry about supplementing collagen and eating other harmful substances.

Absorptivity
Using fish scales as raw materials, we use advanced bioengineering technology to intercept the small molecular structures that are useful to the skin in the large collagen molecules. In addition to regulating physiological functions, collagen tripeptide also has high nutritional value. Its protein content is more than 95%, and it is composed of special amino acids, such as glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, with a molecular weight of 300D. The tripeptide content is more than 50%, and it is the most efficient form of collagen known to be absorbed.

Molecular weight
Collagen in food is mostly macromolecular collagen, and its absorption rate is very low, less than 5%; while the small molecule collagen tripeptide has an absorption rate of more than 95%, and the small molecule can penetrate to the bottom layer of the skin. It is composed of three amino acids, with a molecular weight of 300D. The molecule is small and easy to absorb.

Choose with hormone-free, chemical-free, and high-safety
If you choose a brand that contains processed sweeteners, spices, hormones, and preservatives, it will bring a burden to your body for long-term maintenance, and you will get fatter as you eat. Eating for a long time will also have an impact on your health.

Assist component
7GEM mainly uses 7 major ingredients, collagen tripeptide, white tomato, soybean peptide, polyphenol, ceramide, vitamin C and soluble corn fibre, which can inject more nutrients into the skin, supplement all-round, and the effect is better!

8. Do collagen peptides have to be eaten together with vitamin C to be effective?
Yes, vitamin C is the most basic and essential ingredient. It has strong reducibility properties. It is an antioxidant that can weaken the already generated melanin effectively and "restore" it. The root cause of skin darkening is melanin deposition, and melanin is secreted by dopa. When dopa secretes melanin, dopa must be converted into Baquinone, and the role of vitamin C can convert Baquinone back to dopa, preventing the formation of melanin. According to this, it can be seen that vitamin C has a whitening effect. In addition, the antioxidant effect of vitamin C can promote the formation of collagen and rejuvenate the skin, thereby delaying the aging of the skin and indirectly whitening the skin.

9.How does 7Gem help our skin?
Since collagen is the main protein in the skin, a lack of collagen can lead to dry skin, fine lines and wrinkles. Multiple studies have shown that taking collagen supplements can improve skin hydration and elasticity and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Rejuvenates and promotes skin rejuvenation. It can maintain the integrity of the stratum corneum moisture and fiber structure, improve the living environment of skin cells and promote the metabolism of skin tissue, enhance blood circulation, and achieve the purpose of moisturizing the skin. In addition, the antioxidant effect of vitamin C can promote the formation of collagen and rejuvenate the skin, thereby delaying the aging of the skin and indirectly whitening the skin.

10. Eating a lot of vitamin C can whiten the skin, why rely on products?
Don't think that eating a lot of vitamin C will make you white! Take it at the right time and eat it in a right amount, and you will see the skin improve, become white, fine and tender. Of course, it is impossible turn white immediately and effectively after a day you consumes! Only persistence and maintaining a balanced diet will allow you to overcome the risk of "muscle" aging and melanin, and regain your youthful breath! Although vitamin C is widely found in vegetables and fruits, such as cherries, kiwi, cucumbers, strawberries, tomatoes, oranges, etc. that are rich in vitamin C, but it is one of the most unstable water-soluble antioxidants with short shelf life and extremely easy to be oxidized. For example, green leafy vegetables lose 5-18% of vitamin C 2 hours after picking, and 38-66% after 10 hours, and if the vegetables ingested are mainly cooked food, the loss of vitamin C is more extreme during the cooking process, and the utilization rate is less than 50%. Therefore, is only the amount taken from vegetables and fruits are not able to reach the corresponding functional dose, and it is often the least effective for ideal maintenance and beauty.

11. How long does it take for consuming collagen peptides to see the effect? How to verify the effect?
Whitening is like a war. The game with the "muscle" aging and melanin requires a continuous supply of bullets. Otherwise, the melanin that has just been repelled will quickly stand up, and the combat power will be stronger. It takes at least 3-6 months to take orally, and the effect will be more obvious, because it is absorbed by the human body through the stomach and intestines, and it takes a process to gradually help cells to renew, in order to improve the skin color from the root. Any product that exaggerates the propaganda effect may have some chemical additives added, which is not beneficial to your health.

12. Will there be dependence and resilience?
As long as you overcome the risk of "muscle" aging and melanin, you will not have dependence and rebound when you start to reduce the amount you eat. But one thing that must be known is that good skin is obtained by eating daily, to overcome the risk of "muscle" aging and melanin. If you suddenly change from one pack a day to none, you may not feel anything at first, but in the long run after turning over, the collagen will lose, without careful care will still affect the condition of the skin. It is recommended that when the skin achieves the desired effect, slowly reduce the amount and do daily maintenance, so that we can continue to maintain good skin. After all, our age only increases and does not decrease, and the skin will grow old if we do not maintain it.

13. Will I get pimples/acne after eating it?
It will not happen. The cause of acne on the skin may be due to high-calorie diet or too much fried food, or inflammation caused by bacterial infection of the hair follicles and sebaceous glands, and 7GEM has an anti-inflammatory effect; for existing acne, it can help relieve inflammation and reduce inflammation in the same time promote wound repair, it should be said that "supplementing with 7GEM" may improve acne-prone skin, but more important should be consulted with a dermatologist to find out the cause of acne and prescribe the right medicine.

14. Can it be eaten during menstruation?
Can. Menstruation can lead to the loss of collagen, the product is free of added hormones or any ingredients that will affect menstruation.

15. Can women prepare for pregnancy, pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, or confinement women take it?
Women prepare for pregnancy – Yes.

Pregnant women – After the foetus is stable, but everyone's constitution is different, it is recommended to consult your doctor first. But folic acid cannot be taken with vitamin C at the same time! Folic acid is relatively stable in alkaline and neutral environments, which is beneficial to the absorption of pregnant women, but it is easily destroyed in an acidic environment, while vitamin C is relatively stable in an acidic environment. Due to the conflict between the two stable environments, if you need to supplement both, it is recommended to take it half an hour after consuming one of them apart to avoid effecting the absorption rate.

Breastfeeding mothers – The product does not added hormones. Postpartum mothers need supplementation, because the loss of collagen leads to sagging skin, stretch marks, etc. postpartum, it can help repair excessively stretched skin.

16. Will collagen peptides affect milk production/removal?
It does not.

17. Can people with uterine fibroids eat it?
Diseases vary from person to person, and everyone’s constitution is different, so it is recommended to consult your doctor first. People with uterine fibroids should pay more attention to their diet. Foods rich in vitamins/antioxidants and protein can help fight uterine fibroids, such as whole grain diet, lean meat, eggs, fish, fresh vegetables and fruits such as strawberries, red grapes, lemon, kiwi, blueberry, tomato, cauliflower, carrot, spinach, kelp, seaweed, mushroom, nuts, etc. Consume lesser foods with high-phytoestrogen and high-fat foods such as soybeans and soy products, sweet potatoes, yams, royal jelly, etc. High-fat foods can promote the secretion of estrogen in women, which can stimulate the uterus and cause uterine fibroids.

18. Can patients with (3Highs) hypertension, hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia eat it?
Can. People with "three highs" should eat lesser food that are in high-fat, high-calorie, and high-protein, while 7GEM adopts a low-calorie, low-protein, low-fat formula. People with "three highs" can eat with reassurance, but avoid excessive consumption.
