No. Although they share the word “peptide,” collagen peptides and therapeutic peptide treatments are very different products with different purposes.

*Collagen peptides are food-derived protein nutrition.* Oranique’s pure bovine collagen is hydrolysed, meaning the long collagen protein is broken down into smaller, easy-to-digest chains of amino acids called peptides. This is similar to what the digestive system naturally does when it breaks down the protein in food.

Collagen peptides provide amino acids such as glycine, proline and hydroxyproline. The body can use these nutritional building blocks when producing and maintaining its own proteins and connective tissues, including those found in the skin, joints, bones, muscles, tendons and ligaments.

Prescription or injectable peptides are different. They are specially formulated therapeutic substances designed to produce a particular biological or hormonal response. This category includes certain peptide hormones, weight-management medications, bodybuilding compounds and other medically prescribed or experimental treatments. Their effects, dosages and risks depend on the specific drug and how it is administered.

Oranique contains *pure hydrolysed bovine collagen peptides only*. It does not contain peptide hormones, prescription medications, weight-loss drugs, bodybuilding peptides or injectable compounds. It is a straightforward dietary protein supplement designed to provide the body with valuable collagen-derived amino acids as part of a balanced, healthy lifestyle.
