Verisol Found to Reduce Wrinkles & Increase Collagen Synthesis

By: Lisa Olivo

, Rodman Media

Results of a trial examining Gelita’s Verisol found that the oral ingestion of the collagen peptide supplement led to a pronounced, statistically significant reduction in eye-wrinkle volume. The study was recently published by the University of Kiel Germany, and focused on the effect of Bioactive Collagen Peptides (BCP) on human skin conditions. In a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, 114 women aged 45-65 years were randomized to receive 2.5 grams of Verisol or placebo once daily for 8 weeks, with 57 subjects included in each group. Skin wrinkles were objectively measured in all subjects, before starting the treatment, after 4 and 8 weeks as well as 4 weeks after the last intake (4-week regression phase). A subgroup was established for suction blister biopsies analyzing pro-collagen I, elastin and fibrillin at the beginning of the treatment, and after 8 weeks of intake.

After 4 weeks of treatment the BCP group showed a statistically significantly reduced eye-wrinkle volume of more than 7.2% on average. This positive effect was more pronounced after 8 weeks (20.1%). In particular a maximum reduction in eye-wrinkle volume of 49.9% was achieved. Four weeks after the last product intake (4-week regression phase), the BCP treatment group still showed a statistically significant decrease in eye-wrinkle volume of 11.5%. Pro-collagen type I content was increased by 65%, elastin by 18% and fibrillin by 6% after 8 weeks of BCP treatment.
