Collagen is one of the most vital proteins in our body - it keeps our skin plump, our joints flexible, and our hair strong. But as we age, our natural collagen production declines, often starting as early as our mid-20s. The ZeroHarm Collagen Builder was created to support this natural process using a unique combination of food-grown, freeze-dried, and liposomally encapsulated plant extracts that work synergistically to promote collagen synthesis and antioxidant protection.
Let’s take a closer look at each ingredient and the science behind how they contribute to radiant, youthful health.
1. Seabuckthorn Extract (200 mg)
Seabuckthorn berries are rich in omega fatty acids (especially omega-7), vitamin C, and carotenoids - all vital for collagen formation and skin elasticity.
Research suggests seabuckthorn’s bioactive compounds enhance skin hydration and elasticity while reducing roughness and inflammation.
A 2017 study published in Lipids in Health and Disease found that seabuckthorn oil supplementation improved skin hydration and elasticity due to its high antioxidant and fatty acid content:

Collagen benefit: Supports skin repair and hydration through antioxidant protection and fatty acid nourishment.
2. Acerola Cherry Extract (75 mg)
Acerola cherries are one of the richest natural sources of vitamin C, an essential cofactor for collagen synthesis. Vitamin C not only stimulates collagen production but also protects existing collagen from oxidative stress.
According to research in the Journal of Nutritional Science and Vitaminology, acerola has significantly higher bioavailable vitamin C compared to synthetic ascorbic acid, meaning it is absorbed and utilised more efficiently by the body:

Collagen benefit: Stimulates collagen synthesis and protects the skin from oxidative damage.
3. Panax Ginseng Extract (70 mg)
Panax ginseng has been studied extensively for its ability to promote cellular energy, circulation, and skin vitality. Ginsenosides - the active compounds in ginseng - have been shown to increase collagen type I production in dermal fibroblasts and reduce signs of ageing.
A 2017 paper in the Journal of Ginseng Research demonstrated that ginseng extracts can enhance collagen synthesis and inhibit wrinkle formation:

Collagen benefit: Encourages collagen production and supports skin firmness by boosting fibroblast activity.
4. Pomegranate Extract (70 mg)
Pomegranate is rich in polyphenols, including ellagic acid and punicalagin, which help protect collagen from breakdown caused by UV radiation and free radicals.
Studies show that pomegranate extract reduces oxidative stress and increases procollagen synthesis in skin cells. A 2014 study in Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine found pomegranate extract improved dermal thickness and collagen density:

Collagen benefit: Protects against collagen degradation and supports a smooth, even skin texture.
5. Bamboo Shoot Extract (85 mg)
Bamboo is one of the richest natural sources of silica - a key trace mineral involved in collagen and elastin formation. Silica helps improve hair strength, nail growth, and skin elasticity.
A clinical review in International Journal of Cosmetic Science found silica supplementation improved hair tensile strength and skin texture:

Collagen benefit: Strengthens connective tissue and promotes firmer, more resilient skin.
6. Soya Extract (100 mg)
Soy extract contains isoflavones - natural phytoestrogens that mimic some of oestrogen’s effects on collagen metabolism. As oestrogen levels decline with age, collagen density can drop; soy isoflavones help counteract this by stimulating fibroblast activity.
A study in Menopause (2007) showed that daily soy isoflavone intake increased dermal collagen and improved skin elasticity in postmenopausal women:

Collagen benefit: Maintains collagen levels and supports skin elasticity, particularly in women during hormonal transitions.
The ZeroHarm Advantage: Food-Grown, Freeze-Dried, and Liposomally Encapsulated
Food-Grown Nutrients
Unlike synthetic isolates, food-grown nutrients are derived directly from plants, making them more bioavailable and gentle on digestion. They contain natural cofactors (like enzymes, flavonoids, and minerals) that enhance nutrient absorption and utilisation by the body.
Freeze-Dried Preservation
Freeze-drying locks in the full nutrient spectrum of each ingredient without heat damage. This ensures vitamins, antioxidants, and enzymes remain active and potent, mimicking the benefits of consuming the raw plant in its purest form.
Liposomal Encapsulation
The most advanced delivery system available, liposomal encapsulation wraps nutrients in phospholipid spheres (similar to cell membranes), allowing them to pass through the digestive tract intact and enter the bloodstream efficiently.
A 2019 study in Nanomedicine: Nanotechnology, Biology and Medicine found liposomal vitamin formulations improved bioavailability by up to 3–5 times compared to standard oral supplements:
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30948300/
This means ZeroHarm Collagen Builder delivers nutrients where they are needed most - deep within the skin and connective tissues.
The Takeaway
ZeroHarm Collagen Builder isn’t just another collagen supplement - it’s a science-backed plant-based innovation designed to naturally activate your body’s own collagen pathways.
Each ingredient contributes to collagen synthesis, antioxidant defence, or structural support, while the food-grown, freeze-dried, and liposomal technology ensures your body absorbs every drop of goodness.
Radiant skin, stronger hair, and resilient joints start with the right nutrients - in the right form.
