Health Canada has confirmed the clinical efficacy of a specific low dosage (2.5 g/day) of Verisol on improvement of skin physiology after a review view by Health Canada’s Natural and Non-Prescription Health Product Directorate (NNHPD).
As such, NNHPD has awarded Gelita’s bioactive collagen peptides with an NPN, allowing manufacturers of licensed natural health products to include Verisol as an ingredient with claims toward skin health.
According to Pierre Godard, Gelita’s director of sales/market development in Canada, “Verisol is a unique and truly differentiated collagen peptide offering exceptional benefits to skin health. Clinical research has proven these benefits in multiple published studies in high level medical journals — and now Health Canada has confirmed the value of VERISOL, too.”
Verisol’s NPNs (80061371 and 80061372 – for porcine and bovine-derived, respectively) allow the following claims: “Helps increase skin elasticity;” “Helps augment skin elasticity;” “Helps promote healthy collagen production;” “Helps promote healthy elastin production;” “Helps reduce wrinkles and fine lines;” “Helps reduce eye wrinkles;” “Helps reduce eye wrinkles within 4 weeks;” “Helps reduce fine facial lines;” “Helps increase skin elasticity and reduce wrinkles;” “Helps increase skin density;” “Helps with the appearance of smooth skin;” and “Helps to enhance skin surface profile.”
