Collagen is the second most abundant substance in our body behind water and is the building block of our tissues. Collagen acts as the glue that holds our bodies together, making up 97.5% of the human skin. It’s what gives our skin elasticity and gives our hair, nails and joints strength.

As we age collagen productions decreases.

This starts happening as soon as our 20's and is one of the main contributors to the signs of aging such as wrinkles, thinning hair, joint pain, poor digestion, etc. This is why many people notice a reduction in skin tone, decline in hydration, and an increase in fine lines. When collagen production is reduced the skin becomes thinner, drier, more wrinkled and marked with hyper-pigmentation spots.

Consuming collagen daily helps restore collagen production levels, giving you healthy hair, skin and nails by stimulating your body’s natural ability to produce collagen.*

Collagen peptides stimulate the body’s ability to synthesize collagen in skin which makes the skin denser and stronger at the dermal level. A denser and firmer dermal layer reduces hyper-pigmentation spots, decreases moisture loss and also creates greater support for the outer layer of skin thereby reducing the appearance of fine lines and improving skin tone.

Additionally, collagen reduces oxidative stress in skin cells. Collagen is a potent antioxidant which helps to reduce the effects of oxidative stress in skin cells and improves the cell integrity so skin is healthier and holds moisture more effectively.
