Collagen – why waste it on your skin?

The benefits are more than skin cream deep!

I’ve recently been reading up on the research surrounding the benefits of collagen supplementation – and they’re surprisingly positive. Not only can this natural substance improve skin elasticity and hydration – it can ALSO reduce osteoarthritis pain and help manage osteoporosis.

Collagen actually has anti-inflammatory and bone building qualities!

The evidence indicates that you get the super benefits when you take collagen as a dietary supplement – the amount of collagen that’s effective cannot be delivered by a skin cream.

I’m SO impressed that I’ve been adding it to my own regime for a while now. I like to swap between the bovine (animal) derived powder and the marine equivalent.

Not all collagen supplements are equal, so I stick with the evidence based formulas from my trusted distributors who have meticulous standards. I can prescribe these for you via my online supply portal Vital.ly.

Currently there seems to be no indication of adverse interactions with medications. That’s so important with supplements – safety is a number one consideration alongside effectiveness when it comes to choosing what will work best for your body.

If you’re considering supplements, make sure you don’t just follow fads and get quality products with no “hidden extras” – like the high B6 doses hidden in many over the counter multi-vitamins.

For advice on what would work best to support your health and well-being, consider checking your regime with a qualified advisor. If you don’t have one, then consider booking a call with me.
