Did you know that collagen acccounts for 30% of your body’s total protein?
You start experiencing collagen loss at the rate of 1% every year starting from age 20!
Wrinkled and saggy skin, brown spots, brittle hair and nails, joint pain, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, cardiovascular disease, liver damage, and gastrointestinal symptoms such as bloating, indigestion, and abdominal pain are signs you may be deficient in collagen.
A good quality collagen supplement should include:
– all 9 essential amino acids to support protein synthesis
– hydrolized collagen derived from grass-fed, pasture-raised bovine source for quicker digestion and absorption
– biotin to support healthy hair, skin, and nails
– vitamin C to protect against damage caused by free radicals and aid in collagen synthesis
