- Matcha Okinami from Shizuoka: a premium blend from selected cultivars
- Gentle milling in traditional stone mills, resulting in a particle size of only 5–15μm
- Okinami matcha initially tastes quite bitter, but this is quickly replaced by a fruity, floral flavour
- High-quality collagen hydrolysate (made from types I & III collagen)
- Low molecular weight peptides (2000 Da) for improved bioavailability and particularly easy absorption
- Crushed using non-GMO enzymatic processes without additional solvents
- Particularly high purity and neutral-tasting collagen as a result of intensive, multi-stage filtration and a gentle ion exchange process
- Highly soluble because of physical microgranulation (agglomeration)
- Exclusively from healthy cattle raised to high animal welfare standards (i.e., access to green pastures and fresh grass)
- Ideal for stirring into warm plant-based drinks, water or a combination of both

Premium Bioactive Ingredients
How are we different?
Our SunGlow® Pure Matcha Collagen Powder is a highly bioavailable collagen formulated with the strictly controlled brand raw material SunColl®. This formula provides types I and III collagen, which are the most common forms found in human skin and connective tissue, plus premium matcha Okinami from Yoshi En.
Hydrolysis and enzymatic processes have broken this collagen down into an average molecular weight of 2000 daltons. This is smaller than most other collagen powders, which often have 2000–4000 daltons or more. These smaller peptides can be digested quickly by the body, resulting in a high proportion of tripeptides that are optimally absorbed. This is why a smaller portion is recommended: only 11.5g per day instead of 15g or more.
Premium Matcha
Our matcha Okinami from Yoshi En is a premium entry-level blend made from selected cultivars and shaded for several weeks before harvest. The leaves are gently and traditionally milled on granite stone mills for an exceptionally creamy texture. We guarantee the highest quality, purity and safety, which are regularly confirmed by comprehensive laboratory tests.
Premium Raw Material & Highest Purity
The high-quality collagen hydrolysate is based on our strictly controlled SunColl® standard and sourced exclusively from pasture-raised cattle. The animals have access to open pastures, fresh grass and water, ensuring the highest quality raw material which is transparently guaranteed by a seamless traceability system.
The entire production takes place via a gentle, purely enzymatic process. Apart from water, no solvents are used. The resulting collagen peptides are additionally processed via ion exchange to ensure exceptionally high purity. The collagen is free from antibiotic and hormone residues as well as any additives such as preservatives, sweeteners or flavours.
Excellent Solubility & Neutral Collagen 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 (2000 Da) remain intact.
The formula's purity and absence of free amino acids give our SunGlow® Pure Collagen Matcha a pleasant 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.
Our commitment to uncompromising quality & purity:
- Premium active ingredients as pure isolates & directly sourced from leading global producers
- All formulations crafted exclusively from selected individual raw materials
- Our commitment: zero unnecessary additives, technical excipients or chemical extraction agents
- Voluntary declaration of all non-mandatory ingredients
- Where additives are necessary, preference is given to valuable natural ingredients
- Capsule shells entirely free from carrageenan & PEG
- Systematic quality testing conducted by independent laboratories
- Packaged in amber glass or premium aroma-protective zipper bags designed to protect against oxidation & contaminants
- All products entirely free from magnesium stearate, nanoparticles (without legal exceptions), GMOs, artificial colours & flavours, titanium dioxide
- Added sugar & sweeteners: used only where required for functional or product-specific reasons
Effects
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body, accounting for over 30% of total protein. It is a structural protein.
Synthesis and Metabolism
The body continuously produces collagen in a complex, nutrient-dependent process known as biosynthesis. During this process, individual amino acids are linked to form long polypeptide chains. A defining feature of collagen is its unique structure: the chains consist of continuously repeating tripeptide sequences (triple units) of glycine, proline and hydroxyproline. Three of these chains subsequently twist together to form an extremely tear-resistant structure. Vitamin C is required as an essential co-factor for this stable cross-linking.
Collagen Types
More than 28 different types of collagen have been identified in the human body, with types I and III being the most prominent:
- Type I Collagen: This type makes up the largest proportion (about 90%). It forms thick, fibrous bundles and is the main component of the matrix in the skin, bones, tendons, ligaments and cornea of the eye.
- Type II Collagen: This type forms the essential structural framework in the hyaline cartilage of the joints.
- Type III Collagen: This type forms finer, reticular fibres. It is physiologically found mainly in elastic tissues such as the skin, the walls of blood vessels and internal organs. It often occurs together with type I.
- Specialised Types: In addition, types such as type V (e.g. in hair) or type X (in bone tissue) play a role in the complex interaction of the matrix.
Matcha
Matcha is a finely ground green tea that contains the whole tea leaf, thereby providing all naturally occurring phytochemicals in their original ratio. Shading the plants before harvest gives the leaves their vibrant, grassy-green colour.
