About QUAFLY:
Strong raw material advantages: QUAFLY always adheres to the brand concept of healthy beauty, fully considering environmental factors and raw material growth factors, carefully selecting high-quality raw materials globally, and using higher-quality raw materials to develop natural and healthy products for consumers.
Currently, many raw materials and additives of QUAFLY come from various countries and regions around the world, such as dietary fiber raw materials from Matsutani Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., a globally famous modified starch manufacturer in Japan. These materials originate from natural starch, have significant physiological effects, and are certified by the FDA in the United States and the Japanese Ministry of Health as "Specific Health Food Ingredients." They won the highest gold award at the World Food Quality Evaluation Conference for three consecutive years in 2008, 2009, and 2010. The raw material for collagen peptide comes from fish skin from deep-sea areas 3000 meters below sea level in Alaska, which is free from pollution and diseases compared to animal collagen and rich in gelatin and fish protein, with a structure close to that of humans and easy to absorb. There is also Aloe Vera gel produced in the West Indies of America. QUAFLY believes that good products start with raw materials.
Leading technology and processes: QUAFLY has two production bases in Wuhan and Shanghai within China, both built according to international GMP standards. All have passed the national ISO9001 quality management system certification and ISO22000 food safety management system certification. It also has its own anti-aging research and development center. Its products take the lead in adopting globally patented composite enzyme gradient enzymatic hydrolysis technology and peptide separation technology, cutting down peptide segments with corresponding efficacy directionally and quickly screening them. Products without this technology on the market are five times less effective. It can hydrolyze collagen into small molecular collagen tripeptides with an average molecular weight of 280 Dalton, easily absorbed by the human body, and after multiple purification and refinement processes, produce high-quality fish collagen peptide products, effectively ensuring product quality and functionality.
II. Product Advantages of QUAFLY Collagen:
1. Good Raw Materials: Collagen peptide powder is selected from high-quality codfish skin rich in collagen protein growing in the deep-sea area 3000 meters below sea level in Alaska, with less pollution and avoiding hazards such as foot-and-mouth disease, mad cow disease, epidemics, and chemical hormones in terrestrial animals.
2. Excellent Technology: Using advanced patent composite enzyme gradient directional enzymatic cutting technology, collagen is hydrolyzed into small molecular collagen tripeptides (third-generation collagen) that are easily absorbed by the human body, and after multiple purification and refinement processes, high-quality fish collagen peptide products are made. The molecular weight of QUAFLY collagen tripeptide is less than 500 Dalton, with an average molecular weight of 280 Dalton, far exceeding the requirements of GB/T22729-2008 "Marine Fish Oligopeptide Powder" national standard. Among similar products in the market, the proportion of peptides with relative molecular masses between 200-500 is the highest. Therefore, QUAFLY fish collagen peptides have significant advantages over similar products in the market in terms of molecular weight distribution indicators.
World-related authoritative literature confirms: Small molecular peptides are absorbed quickly; there are dedicated absorption channels for small peptides in the small intestine and carriers for dipeptides and tripeptides (relative molecular mass 200-500), so the absorption of small peptides does not competitively inhibit amino acid absorption. The functions of peptide substances are related to their structures; collagen tripeptides (relative molecular mass 200-500) with smaller molecular weights have much better hydration, antioxidant, whitening, and moisturizing functions than large molecular collagens.
3. High Hydroxyproline Content: According to GB/T22729-2008 "Marine Fish Oligopeptide Powder" national standard, the quality requirement for hydroxyproline is 3.0%, while QUAFLY collagen protein has a hydroxyproline content as high as 12.9%, making it the highest among similar products in the market, far exceeding the national standard, fully demonstrating the high purity of QUAFLY collagen peptides.
Hydroxyproline is the unique amino acid in collagen protein, an important amino acid for synthesizing new collagen protein, whose content determines the amount of collagen protein and the quality of collagen products. Collagen is the main component of human skin; when people are young, the content of collagen in the skin is high. As age increases, its content gradually decreases, causing the skin to lose its hydration function, and only continuous synthesis of new collagen can keep the skin healthy and elastic. Collagen has abundant anionic side chains that can adsorb a large amount of water, maintaining the moisture and elasticity of the skin. Additionally, studies show that the content of hydroxyproline in collagen is related not only to aging but also to nutrients in the body. Therefore, hydroxyproline can be used as an important biochemical indicator of aging. Similarly, the best way to test the degree of skin aging is to test the content of hydroxyproline in the skin. The normal hydroxyproline content in human skin is 13%. The closer the hydroxyproline content of collagen products is to the hydroxyproline content of human skin, the better the effect of improving and repairing the skin will be. Currently, the general hydroxyproline content of collagen products in the market is 8%, with the highest reaching 11%, while QUAFLY reaches an average of 12% and up to 12.9%, truly achieving highly efficient beautification.
4. Nutritional Diversity: Scientifically formulated nutrition formula, comprehensively and reasonably supplementing skin nutrition, better than single-formula collagen protein for beautifying effects, eliminating the hassle of multiple bottles and jars, repairing damaged skin, and restoring perfect skin!
5. Pure Natural Ingredients, No Additives.
6. Super High Cost-Performance Ratio.
III. Comparison between Collagen Tripeptides and Ordinary Collagen Peptides:
Collagen in the human body is lost every day, so it is necessary to supplement an appropriate amount of collagen to maintain the youthful state of the skin. However, large molecular collagens (composed of 100 to 1000 amino acids) or polypeptides must be decomposed into individual amino acids before absorption, then randomly synthesized into collagen required by bones, blood vessels, tendons, etc., "distributed" to the skin. Only a very small part of it can be absorbed even with long-term and large amounts of supplementation, making it difficult to feel the "beautifying" effect on the skin. What the skin needs is actually "collagen tripeptides," which consist of three amino acids. This form of collagen is faster and easier to absorb than regular collagen and can directly be used to synthesize fresh collagen. However, digestive enzymes in the human body cannot break down regular collagen into "collagen tripeptides." The acquisition of high-purity collagen tripeptides significantly enhances the synthesis ability of new collagen in the skin, greatly improving the "beautifying efficiency." Both collagen tripeptides and collagen peptides have moisturizing and beautifying effects. Since collagen tripeptides contain both small molecular components and larger molecular components, they not only have the same skincare effects as ordinary collagen peptides but are also more stable, effective, and obvious.
IV. Q&A about Collagen Tripeptides:
1. How to distinguish between first-generation, second-generation, and third-generation collagen products?
Answer: First, explain what third-generation collagen is: Third-generation collagen is commonly known as collagen tripeptides or tripeptide collagen. A typical collagen molecule consists of 3,000 amino acids (3,000 molecular weight), which is difficult for the body to absorb and utilize, let alone be directly absorbed by the skin.
Tripeptide collagen cuts the 3,000 amino acids into the smallest collagen molecular structure, i.e., a combination of three amino acids. Tripeptide collagen has superior absorption properties compared to regular collagen and can directly penetrate into the dermis layer, providing better moisturization effects.
1) Large molecular collagen has a molecular weight of about 300,000 Dalton, collagen peptides have a molecular weight of 1000-3000 Dalton and above, while collagen tripeptides have a molecular weight of 280 Dalton.
2) In 100ml of cold water at 4°C, dissolve 50g of sample collagen: After 30 minutes, it is not completely dissolved, and the solution is turbid; CTP collagen tripeptides: Completely dissolved after 9 minutes, with clear solution. Collagen tripeptides have smaller molecular weights, better solubility, and stronger stability.
3) The absorption pore size of human skin and small intestine is less than 1000 Dalton. Large molecular collagen cannot be absorbed, collagen peptides can be partially absorbed, but collagen tripeptides can be 100% absorbed. Therefore, their main difference lies in the size of the molecular weight. Collagen tripeptides are the basic structure of human skin, composed of three amino acids. The size of the molecular weight determines the absorption and effectiveness of the product. Collagen tripeptides with a molecular weight of 280 Dalton represent the most perfect collagen structure.
2. What is collagen tripeptide? What is CTP collagen tripeptide? What's the difference?
Answer: Collagen tripeptide (collagen tripeptide, abbreviated as CTP) is a sequence composed of three amino acids arranged as "glycine (G)-proline (P)-X (other amino acids)." It is the smallest unit that gives collagen biological activity. Its structure can be simply represented as GLY-X-Y, with a molecular weight of 280D. Collagen tripeptide and CTP collagen peptide or CTP collagen tripeptide refer to the same product, just expressed differently.
3. What are the advantages of collagen tripeptides compared to the previous two generations of products?
Answer: Similar to question 1, the main advantages include smaller molecular weight, better absorption, and higher utilization rate.
4. What are the technical advantages of collagen tripeptides?
Answer: Collagen tripeptides are obtained through globally patented composite enzyme gradient enzymatic hydrolysis technology and peptide separation technology. After this technology purifies collagen tripeptides, they have lower molecular weights and higher absorption and utilization rates.
5. What is the relationship between collagen protein, collagen peptides, collagen oligopeptides, and collagen tripeptides?
Answer: Collagen protein - collagen peptides - collagen oligopeptides - collagen tripeptides are arranged in order of decreasing molecular weight.

Main Components: Deep-sea codfish skin collagen tripeptide, L-ascorbic acid, VB1, VB2, VB6, trehalose, etc.
Deep-sea Codfish Skin Collagen Tripeptide: Collagen tripeptide is obtained through composite enzyme gradient enzymatic hydrolysis technology and peptide separation technology. The raw material comes from deep-sea codfish skin, free from pollution, and extracted by enzyme method for greater stability and safety. It is a tripeptide containing glycine, proline (hydroxyproline), and other amino acids. Its structure can be simply represented as Gly-x-y, with an average molecular weight of 280Da. Due to the small molecular weight of collagen tripeptide, it can effectively penetrate into the dermis layer and hair root cells, truly nourishing the skin.
L-Ascorbic Acid: L-Ascorbic Acid can promote the generation of collagen, repair UV damage to the skin, promote skin metabolism, fade spots and fine lines. It is one of the most excellent antioxidants known, effectively neutralizing free radicals and preventing skin aging. Vitamin C is one of the necessary nutrients for synthesizing collagen, which the human body cannot synthesize itself and must obtain through diet. Only 7% of vitamin C absorbed through daily diet reaches the skin, far insufficient to combat external environmental damage. L-ascorbic acid is the only form of vitamin that can be directly absorbed and utilized by the human body. By orally consuming QUAFLY Ultra-Mengji Collagen Protein Fruit Flavor Drink, you can supplement collagen and an appropriate amount of L-ascorbic acid simultaneously, doubling the beautifying effect.
Trehalose: Trehalose (Trehalose) is hailed by the scientific community as "Life Sugar," a safe and reliable natural sugar extracted from nature. Its structure is very stable and has a magical protective effect on biological active substances. Under harsh conditions such as high temperature, low temperature, high osmotic pressure, and dehydration, it forms a unique protective film on the cell surface, effectively protecting protein molecules from denaturation and loss of activity, thus maintaining the life process and biological characteristics of living organisms. Trehalose has excellent moisturizing and wrinkle-reducing effects on the skin, repairing previously damaged cells. Additionally, trehalose can serve as an excellent active protector for biological products, preventing food degradation and enhancing the unique flavor of food.
Usage Method: 1-2 bottles daily, preferably taken 2 hours before bedtime for better absorption.

Main components: Deep-sea codfish skin collagen tripeptide, grape seed extract, vitamin E powder, Aloe Vera gel from Curacao, etc.
Deep-sea Codfish Skin Collagen Tripeptide: Collagen tripeptide is obtained through composite enzyme gradient enzymatic hydrolysis technology and peptide separation technology. The raw material comes from deep-sea codfish skin, free from pollution, and extracted by enzyme method for greater stability and safety. It is a tripeptide containing glycine, proline (hydroxyproline), and other amino acids. Its structure can be simply represented as Gly-x-y, with an average molecular weight of 280Da. Due to the small molecular weight of collagen tripeptide, it can effectively penetrate into the dermis layer and hair root cells, nourishing the skin.
Grape Seed Extract: Procyanidins (grape seed extract) is a new and highly effective antioxidant, currently discovered as the strongest free radical scavenger with strong intracellular activity. Experiments prove that OPC's anti-free radical oxidation capability is 50 times that of vitamin E and 20 times that of vitamin C, absorbing quickly and completely, showing significant whitening, fading spots, and anti-aging effects, forming a perfect anti-aging and beautifying combination with collagen.
Europeans call anthocyanins the youth nutrient, skin vitamin, and oral cosmetic because they restore collagen vitality, making the skin smooth and elastic. Collagen is the basic component of the skin and a gel-like substance that holds our body together. Vitamin C is a necessary nutrient for synthesizing collagen. Anthocyanins make more vitamin C effective, meaning vitamin C can more easily complete all its functions (including collagen synthesis). Anthocyanins connect to collagen, preventing enzymes that destroy collagen. Anthocyanins not only help collagen fibers form cross-linked structures but also help restore excessive cross-linking damage caused by injury and free radicals. Excessive cross-linking causes connective tissue suffocation and hardening, leading to wrinkles and premature aging. QUAFLY · Collagen Aloe Vera Powder scientifically combines collagen tripeptide, grape seed extract, Aloe Vera gel from Curacao, etc., making beautification simpler and more effective!
Curacao Aloe Vera Gel: There are more than 300 varieties of Aloe Vera worldwide, but only Curacao Aloe Vera, Cape Aloe Vera, and Tiger Aloe Vera have true health benefits, with Curacao Aloe Vera receiving particular attention due to its outstanding health benefits. In 1981, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) confirmed that Curacao Aloe Vera could be used as food.
Moisturizing and Anti-Wrinkle, Whitening and Nourishing the Skin: The amino acids and complex polysaccharides in Aloe Vera constitute natural moisturizing factors, replenishing some of the lost moisture in the skin, restoring collagen function, preventing facial wrinkles, keeping the skin smooth, soft, elastic, inhibiting the formation of skin pigmentation, making the skin healthy, beautiful, white, and radiant.
Relieving Constipation, Cleaning Intestinal Waste: Effective components in Aloe Vera, such as polysaccharides, can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, improve gastrointestinal function, promote metabolism, allowing toxins to be excreted from the body, cleaning large amounts of food residues, black residue constipation, and excess fat and other waste, rebuilding a healthy intestinal environment.
