Collagen in your 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's + beyond!

Many people think taking care of their skin should start when they begin noticing the signs of ageing; however, research suggests that the best time to start is much earlier than we think. The good news is that it is never too late to revitalise damaged skin. But 'Prejuvenation' or pre-emptively maintaining skin health is equally important. Here are five science-supported reasons to begin taking collagen as early as your 20's.

PROMOTES HAIR + NAIL HEALTH

Collagen is a rich source of amino acids that are required for your body to produce specific proteins. In particular, collagen is a rich source of proline, an amino acid that forms the main component of keratin protein.

As keratin is the main compound that makes up hair and nails, this suggests that consuming a quality source of collagen may help encourage long, luscious locks and healthy nails.

ENCOURAGES HEALTHY SKIN

The skin is the largest organ the human body has. The building block that ensures our skin looks smooth and healthy is collagen, a protein that naturally depletes as we get older. Consuming collagen in your 20's, 30's, 40's and beyond ensures your body has a source of collagen to promote radiant, glowing skin. 

Studies show that collagen supplementation may be beneficial in improving skin hydration and reducing skin inflammatory issues such as eczema.

MINIMISE THE SIGNS OF STRECH MARKS

A 2015 study published in the Journal of Medicinal Food provided women between the ages of 24-50 with a source of collagen peptides to see its effect on signs of cellulite. After six months of consuming collagen peptides, the study found that the women had significantly improved skin health and substantially improved the appearance of their skin.

IMPROVES DIGESTIVE HEALTH

Collagen makes up a primary component of the gut lining, so consuming a quality source of collagen can assist with digestive health. In addition, collagen contains amino acids such as L-glutamate and glycine, which have been shown to help with healing and sealing the gut and assisting the body's natural digestive process.

Gut Collagen is a powerhouse of wild marine collagen, L-glutamine, magnesium and probiotics, formulated to support your gut health. 

REDUCES JOINT PAIN

Collagen helps your joint move more easily and reduces pain and deterioration often associated with ageing. Studies show that collagen is an effective treatment for treating osteoarthritis and other joint pain disorders.
