DEFENCE is formulated by our scientists and nutritionists to offer a unique combination of 16 active ingredients including green tea extract, astaxanthin, vitamins and minerals for good absorption and bioavailability.

This helps prevent collagen depletion and supports the maintenance of healthy skin, hair, and nails. Supported by published clinical trials, all from the Collagen Expert, trusted since 2011.
Expect nothing but efficacy UV rays, pollution and other environmental stresses expose our skin to damaging molecules called free radicals. Free radicals are reactive molecules which can damage skin cells. This damage, also known as oxidative stress, can accelerate collagen loss. As we age, our bodies become less effective at naturally neutralising free radicals, resulting in collagen deterioration. DEFENCE tablets contribute to enhancing your skin's natural defences, supporting collagen protection from within.

If taking GOLD COLLAGEN® liquid supplements, take DEFENCE between 30 or 90 day programmes to maintain your newly formed collagen until you wish to take your next liquid supplement programme.
