Collagen is a complex protein that acts as a glue in the connective tissues throughout your body. With a whopping 19 amino acids it is the key structural protein that ensures the strength, elasticity and regeneration of all connective tissues, including skin, tendons, ligaments, cartilage and bone.

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body but your body produces less and lower quality collagen as you age. From the age of 25, the body’s natural production of collagen rapidly declines resulting in the visible signs of ageing like wrinkles and brittle hair and nails, as well as the invisible wear and tear on joints and ligaments.

Supplementing your daily diet with collagen is an inside-out approach that can improve skin and hair condition, reduce wrinkles, strengthen bones, repair joints and reduce inflammation.

Protecting yourself from ultraviolet light, which breaks down collagen, and eating foods high in antioxidants, like fruits and vegetables, can also prevent collagen breakdown.

Of all forms of collagen, evidence shows that hydrolyzed collagen is absorbed most efficiently by the body. Also known as collagen peptides, hydrolyzed collagen is made of the same amino acids as collagen but are much shorter chains of amino acids making them more digestible and more easily absorbed into the bloodstream.
