Collagen: The Protein That Holds You Together (Literally)
You’ve probably heard of collagen by now — it’s the beauty world’s favourite word. But it’s more than just a trend. Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body and plays a huge role in skin, joints, and gut health. And the good news? You can replenish it naturally.
Why Collagen Matters:
Collagen makes up your skin, hair, nails, ligaments, and even your gut lining. As we age, natural collagen production drops — leading to wrinkles, joint pain, and slower recovery.
Types of Collagen:
- Type I & III: Great for skin, hair, nails
- Type II: Focused on joints and cartilage
- Marine Collagen: Absorbs quickly, great for skin
- Bovine Collagen: Rich in Types I & III
Collagen in the Shop:
We stock both flavoured and unflavoured collagen powders, marine and bovine varieties, and collagen blends with extras like hyaluronic acid or vitamin C for absorption.
Bill’s Tip:
“Mix unflavoured collagen into your coffee or smoothie — you won’t even know it’s there.”
Randa Recommends:
“Consistency is key. Collagen works best when taken daily — think of it like brushing your teeth.”
