What are the components of fish maw
In fact, the use of fish maw can be traced back more than 2000 years. Ancient people, based on empirical rules, discovered various health benefits of fish maw. Before the Ming Dynasty, in the Tang Dynasty for example, fish bladders were already being used to provide professional health services.

1) Collagen: Fish maw contains up to 84% protein, most of which is collagen. While there are slight variations depending on the fish source, the overall collagen content generally exceeds 80%.
2) Fish Maw Peptides
They primarily help alleviate damage caused by sun exposure. Researchers previously used enzymatic methods to extract fish maw peptides and found that the repair rate of the resulting peptides under optimal extraction conditions reached 76-79%. This is quite impressive, as sun exposure is closely related to many skin problems, such as uneven skin tone, fine lines, etc.
3) Fish Maw Polysaccharides
Fish maw is rich in glycosaminoglycans, which can account for 8-10% of its dry weight. Moreover, its moisturizing effect is quite good. Experimental data shows that it directly outperforms classic moisturizers like sodium alginate and chitosan.
Fish maw is more suitable for beauty and skincare. From collagen to fish maw peptides and fish maw polysaccharides, these three work synergistically to form a complete process, covering skin hydration, radiant texture, and more.
