When was the last time you bought collagen? How many different types did you see? 10? 20? 50? The confusion is real!
When purchasing a product that you will be consuming daily, you want to be sure that you are making the best investment in your own health.
So how can you sort through the minefield of product claims?
Lets Talk COLLAGEN 101 – The Medical Truth About Collagen – Are You Ready?
UNDERSTAND THE ROLE OF COLLAGEN IN YOUR BODY
Collagen is a type of protein. The building blocks of protein are amino acids. The word collagen derives from the Greek word kolla, meaning glue and collagen really is like an adhesive that holds many of the body’s tissues together. Skin, tendons, ligaments, bones, blood vessels and connective tissues are all made up of collagen. There are at least 28 different types of collagen. Types I, II and III form the bulk of the collagen in your body. Types I and III provide structure to the skin, muscles, and ligaments, while type II is found in cartilage and the eyes. The terms “collagen peptides “and “hydrolyzed collagen” are different names for the same thing: collagen broken down into a protein powder. Scientists have shown that typically around 1% of collagen is lost per year from our early 20’s.
This loss typically results in:
-DEHYDRATION AND THINNING OF THE SKIN, CAUSING FINE LINES & WRINKLES.
-STIFF OR ACHING JOINTS
-ACHING MUSCLES
-DULL OR THIN HAIR
-ABNORMAL BLOOD PRESSURE
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN COLLAGEN IS CONSUMED?
Contrary to popular understanding, collagen does NOT remain in its complex original form and is broken down into its amino acid building blocks by digestion. To restore the complex triple-helix form again, additional ingredients are required. A sufficient dosage of Collagen, Vitamin C, Zinc, Sulphur and Manganese amongst many others are needed to rebuild the Collagen structure if you want the claimed effects of “Collagen”…else it has little, or no effect.
