SKIN HEALTH

Collagen is a key component of the skin's middle layer (Dermis). It provides structural support and helps the skin remain firm and elastic. As we age, collagen production naturally decreases approx 1-2% per year,  by the time we reach menopause we will have lost around 25-30% of our collagen. Less collagen means a loss in skin elasticity, which can result in sagging and the formation of those unwanted wrinkles. 

Hydrolysed Collagen helps to fill in and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. By maintaining the skin's structural integrity, collagen can reduce the appearance of the common signs of aging and skin appears and feels more plump and smoother in texture. 

Incorporating collagen supplements into your daily routine can help reduce ageing effects on overall skin health by promoting skin elasticity and hydration, resulting in a more youthful complexion.

Studies have shown that supplementing with a minimum of 10 -15 grams of collagen per day can help to support healthy glowing skin for the ageing population.

The collagen in our skin is mainly made up of type I and type III collagen, thus making bovine collagen the best option for supporting healthy skin, increasing skin hydration and elasticity and reducing wrinkles.
