Benefits of Collagen!
Collagen is a protein that naturally occurs in our bodies, however overtime we start making less of it, which is why it is important to replenish our bodies with a collagen supplement. These are a few of the ways collagen helps to maintain overall health and wellness:
Glowing Skin, Healthy Hair, Strong Nails*
Collagen makes up 70% of the protein in your skin, thus the nickname given to collagen as “the glue that holds your body together”. As we age, collagen production begins to decrease over time (this starts as early as you mid 20’s!), which leads to looser skin and more wrinkles!*
However, adding a soluble collagen supplement to your diet can help increase the collagen levels in your body and in turn help to maintain smooth and firm skin. It doesn’t stop there either! Collagen is also important in hair and nail growth, strength, and regeneration.*
Collagen helps increase blood flow in your body, which in return increases blood flow to your scalp and nails. This helps provide your hair follicles with the necessary amino acids and nutrients needed for strong, healthy hair. While your hair follicles are primarily made up of keratin protein, the building blocks of your hair, it’s structural support system and the amino acids the keratin protein needs come from collagen!*
Promotes Healthy Digestion*
One of the great things about collagen peptide powder is that is easily absorbed compared to other protein powders and is an efficient way to increase the amount of protein in your diet.*
The amino acids in our collagen peptide powder comprises of 18 amino acids, 8 which are considered essential amino acids (you can read more about amino acids here).*
One of those abundant amino acids is Glycine, which helps maintain digestive health and a healthy intestinal tract. Glycine can help stimulate the production of stomach acids and improves its ability to absorb nutrients. Glutamine is another amino acid that has been tied to helping the body’s metabolism and help curb your desire for sugar and alcohol.*
Helps to Maintain Healthy Joints, Bones, and Tendons*
As we have mentioned before, collagen is the most abundant protein in the body and is an integral part of bones, joints, and tendons. As we age, we produce less collagen, which leads to that achy stiffness and tighter joints and tendons.*
Adding a collagen supplement to your diet can help to maintain healthy joints, bones, and tendons.
Supports a Healthy Gut & Immune System*

Supports a Healthy Heart & Liver*
Collagen plays an important role in helping heart and liver health because of the amino acids prevalent in collagen.*
One of the those amino acids, proline, is especially helpful in reducing fat buildup in the bloodstream and repairing tissue within the arteries as well as joints.
Another amino acid, arginine, helps within widening the arteries for better blood flow and relaxing the blood vessels to improve circulation.*
