Our SunGlow® Luxe Collagen Cacao combines high-quality SunGlow® Luxe bovine collagen hydrolysate (produced from types I & III collagen) – an optimised, next-generation collagen formulated with the strictly controlled brand raw material SunColl® – with premium raw Criollo cacao powder.
The special innovation lies in its uniquely small size: gentle enzymatic processes and filtration reduce the average molecular weight to just 500 daltons. This is smaller than commercially available collagen powders, which often have 2000–4000 daltons or more. At an ideal size of only 500 Da, the collagen particles are present as 80% tripeptides, which are practically "pre-digested" and quickly absorbed by the body. This achieves optimal bioavailability and strong signalling, which is why a significantly smaller portion is recommended: only 4g per day instead of 15g or more.
Premium Cacao
Our raw, premium Cacao powder is sourced 100% from the exquisite Criollo variety in the Satipo region of Peru. The beans are carefully selected and gently processed at low temperatures (40–45°C) to preserve their full aroma and natural nutritional properties. We guarantee the highest quality, regularly confirmed by comprehensive laboratory testing for pesticides, mycotoxins, and aflatoxins.
Premium Raw Material & Highest Purity
This high-quality collagen hydrolysate is produced according to the strict standards of the SunColl® brand: it is derived exclusively from cattle raised according to high standards of welfare (i.e., access to open pastures, fresh grass and water), ensuring the highest quality of the raw material. From supply to final product, each step is controlled and managed with a strict reporting and risk assessment system.
The entire production process is gentle and completely enzymatic, avoiding the use of any solvents apart from water. The resulting collagen peptides are then processed by ion exchange to ensure a particularly high purity. The collagen is free from antibiotic and hormone residues as well as any additives such as preservatives, sweeteners or flavourings.
Excellent Solubility & Neutral Flavour
Our collagen powder is highly soluble as a result of microgranulation; this targeted physical refinement prevents clumping – which occurs with regular powders – as the porous granules allow liquids to penetrate immediately and deeply. The quality and specific size of the bioactive collagen peptides (500 Da) remain intact.
The formula's purity and absence of free amino acids give our SunGlow® Luxe Collagen Cacao a pleasantly neutral taste. It is heat-resistant (below boiling) and is ideal for stirring into hot or cold drinks and foods without altering their taste.
We use particularly high-quality, airtight flavour protection bags with zippers for packaging. These offer a high level of protection against moisture and external influences.
