5 Benefits of Collagen

There's a good reason everyone's always talking about collagen - it's quite literally the glue that holds us together.

Even though we’re always on the lookout for the next collagen supplement, it’s one of the most abundant proteins found in our lovely bodies - providing structure from our bones to our ligaments and everything in between. So, what’s the appeal?

Here's how collagen can help you:

1. It's kind of the fountain of youth.

As we age, our body starts slowing down: producing less and lower quality collagen. This manifests as less supple or firm skin - AKA, wrinkle territory. Keeping your collagen levels stable can reduce this natural decline, ensuring your skin retains that youthful elasticity.

2. It's also a great source of easily digested protein.

Collagen isn't just great for your beauty routine, it's also a comfortable protein option to slip into your diet. Studies show that collagen peptides, in combination with strength training, increased muscle mass and strength in active men.

3. "Achy joints be gone." - Collagen

Another impact of natural ageing and collagen decline to consider is your joint health. Evidence shows that collagen can be wonderful for the maintenance and support of connective tissues and improving joint pain after exercise.

4. Good bones!

Turns out, your bones are mostly collagen. So, as we get older, it’s important to supplement with collagen (usually in combination with calcium) to keep our bones healthy and strong to avoid low bone density conditions like osteoporosis.

5. A happy heart.

Surprise - collagen provides structure to your sweet heart - your arteries, to be more specific. When you don’t have enough collagen, your arteries can become weak and fragile. For a happier heart and less stiff arteries, make sure to add collagen to your life.
