We are living longer, but not necessarily better lives. Lardus Erasmus.

There is a need to approach & manage ageing in a forward, preventative & holistic way. Largavita Bioscience has made a futuristic quantum leap into the world of Anti Ageing and healthy ageing. Largavita NADplus+ Complex, the ultimate Dermanutraceutical! Largavita is the dream and calling of Dr. Gys du Plessis and Prof. For over a decade, they have poured their hearts and expertise into developing products that enhance the quality of life as we age. This mission goes beyond mere commercial success; it's about making a real difference in people's lives. Our COLLAGENplus+ Complex and NADplus+ supplements are the results of extensive research and development. These products are designed not just to support healthy aging but to rejuvenate and maintain the vitality of life itself. With COLLAGENplus+, we aim to improve skin elasticity, joint health, and overall cellular renewal. NADplus+ is crafted to enhance energy levels, support brain function, and combat the effects of aging at a cellular level.

Largavita's NADplus+ Complex contains a plethora of nutraceuticals that make up three complexes. The detoxification complex is the third complex, and consists of multiple amino acids involved in the second phase of the liver’s detoxification. This biotransformation phase of liver detoxification is extremely important in ridding the body of numerous endogenous toxins produced in the body.

Amino acids like:

Alpha lipoic acid: Alpha-lipoic acid is a naturally occurring antioxidant made in small amounts by the body. It is unique because it is both water- and fat-soluble, allowing it to work in almost every cell.

L-Carnosine: Carnosine helps prevent and repair glycation, a process where sugar molecules damage collagen, skin structure and proteins in the body.

Beyond the commonly cited benefits for skin, hair, nails, joints, and gut health, collagen has several less obvious or unusual benefits that are gaining attention in research. Here’s a rundown:

Bone Strength Beyond Calcium

🦴Collagen provides the matrix for bone mineralization.

🦴Studies suggest collagen peptides may increase bone density and improve bone microarchitecture, especially in postmenopausal women.

🦴Works synergistically with calcium and vitamin D for stronger bones.

Eye Health

👁️Collagen is abundant in the cornea, sclera, and vitreous humour.

👁️Collagen supports eye tissue integrity

👁️It also reduces age-related structural degradation of the eye

Brain & Cognitive Support

👁️Collagen is rich in glycine and proline, amino acids that support neurotransmitter function

👁️Glycine from collagen can act as an inhibitory neurotransmitter, calming the brain and improving sleep.

The NAD+ Complex is the second complex that makes up Largavita's NADplus+ Complex.

NAD+ acts as an oxidation-reduction coenzyme because it contains the pyridine ring structure of the vitamin niacin, which accepts electrons when fuel molecules are oxidised. Stabilised oral NAD+ as a nutritional supplement thus plays an important role to prevent energy deficiency in tissues. Cells having more fuel via NAD+, have more energy, function much better, live much longer and stay healthy."

Amino Acids:
🐄Bovine collagen contains Type I and Type III collagen, which supports not just skin but also muscles, organs, and connective tissue more broadly.

🐄Marine collagen tends to be primarily Type I, which is very skin-focused (skin elasticity, hydration, hair, nails).

🐄Because of its amino acid distribution, bovine collagen is better for joint support, gut health, and tissue repair, especially where Type III is important.

Absorption / Bioavailability

🐟Marine collagen peptides are generally smaller, which is said to lead to faster absorption.

However, high-quality hydrolysed bovine collagen, like that in Largavita's COLLAGENplus+ Complex, also has very good bioavailability. COLLAGENplus+ Complex uses Peptan® hydrolysed peptides with over 90% absorption rate.

Largavita's NADplus+ Complex contains a plethora of nutraceuticals that make up three complexes. The antioxidant complex boasts ingredients like:

Trans resveratrol helps neutralise free radicals and reduces inflammatory pathways.

Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant and is often called the “king of antioxidants” because of its unusually strong free-radical-quenching ability.

N-acetylcysteine is a supplement form of L-cysteine, an amino acid that helps your body make glutathione, one of the most important antioxidants in the body.

Show your heart some love this Valentines Day.

Give it the gift of Largavita's COLLAGENplus+ Complex.

Arteries and veins are made largely of collagen + elastin. Low collagen
➡️ stiffer arteries.

Supplementation helps maintain:
❤️artery flexibility
❤️healthier circulation
❤️less vascular stiffness over time"

Largavita's NAD+ complex was designed to boost levels of the crucial coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) in the body using precursors like Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) or Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN).

These supplements are associated with a range of health benefits, including enhanced cellular energy production, improved cognitive function, and anti-ageing properties.

The unique combination of Nutraceutical ingredients in NADplus+ Complex make up three complexes, each with a distinctive goal to inhibit ageing.

L-Proline + Vitamin C is a powerful combination because these two nutrients work directly together in one of the body’s most important structural processes: collagen synthesis.

Collagen requires:
Proline and lysine ➡️ raw building blocks.
Vitamin C ➡️ the cofactor that allows proline to be converted into hydroxyproline, which makes collagen strong and stable.

Without vitamin C, collagen fibers become weak and break down easily, no matter how much proline you have, hence the choice to include both in NADplus+ Complex.
Benefits for taking them together:

✔️Stronger collagen formation
✔️Better skin elasticity
✔️Improved wound healing
✔️Stronger blood vessels
✔️Better joint, tendon, and ligament integrity
✔️Reduced oxidative stress in connective tissue

Arginine is a versatile amino acid with important roles in cardiovascular health (via nitric oxide), immune function, wound healing, and metabolism.

Do you need arginine?
When supplementing makes sense :
🤕During illness or trauma, when the body’s demand for arginine is higher.
🩹For wound healing or recovery, especially if tissue repair is needed.
❤️In cardiovascular conditions (but only under medical supervision) because of its blood flow effects.
🍆For erectile dysfunction, but ideally as part of a broader treatment plan.

Arginine is one of the 19 amino acids contained in Largavita's COLLAGENplus+ Complex.
