The old adage that beauty begins from within couldn’t be truer, but with so many supplements currently on the market it can also be confusing to know why we should be adding this one to our regime.

For the uninitiated, Collagen powders are fast becoming the most hyped supplement touted with the most plumping, anti-ageing and glow-inducing powers, and a combination of marine and bovine Collagen is the most interesting of them all.

Collagen is one of the most abundant proteins in the body, but it declines as we age. Studies show that marine collagen is absorbed 1.5 times more efficiently than other types of collagen, making it a very effective nutraceutical. Marine collagen is best for enhancing the skin’s structural integrity (otherwise known as reducing saggy skin), hydration and elasticity. 

While Bovine collagen is recommended for skin, joints, ligaments and muscles making it more preferable for the whole body. 

Our One Body One Life Collagen Plus Hyaluronic Acid, MSM, Vitamin C and D is a sugar free premium powdered supplement that features both Marine Collagen and Bovine Collagen — and sourced from the hides of grass-fed, pasture-raised cows and wild caught fish sources — therefore the best combination to not only support hair, skin, nail, but also support bone and joint health, improve mobility as well as increase lean muscle mass. Extra bonus studies show it also strengthens our gut lining.

“What many people don’t realise is that as a supplement adding Collagen powders can be used similarly to protein powders, and what we recommend instead of protein powders for those that need extra dietary protein,’’ 

We like to add our Collagen to a smoothie, or simply add a scoop to our most popular supplement the Fat Burning Lemonade. Simply add a  scoop of each powder with 8 ounces of filtered water in a glass mason jar , shake shake shake and drink up!

Resullts? Well these are individual due to condition of skin and age and lifestyle but scientific research on daily Collagen intake is that changes can be seen and felt as soon as four weeks onwards after daily supplementation ;) 

The best way to nourish your body from within is with a well-balanced diet that includes foods containing collagen.  Collagen can be found in bone broth, fish, and grass-fed beef as well as plant foods such as carrots, spinach, and beans. Have you downloaded our 6 Day Program yet? Our quick and easy e-book unpacks so much more and includes lots of great recipes. Adding a supplement is a good way to get the right amount of collagen and see results faster :)
