If you follow me on any social platform, then you’ve definitely seen me share my love for Collagen Peptides. I’m usually scooping it into my morning coffee or blending it into my breakfast smoothie. Either way – it’s something that needs to be talked about because I’ve already seen major improvements in my health and appearance and I’ve only been taking it for a month and a half!
So first of all, what is collagen and why do we want it? Collagen is main structural protein found in skin and other connective tissue in our bodies. Taking collagen supplements enhances your hair, skin and nail growth, improves digestion and boosts joint health. Basically, it improves everything that’s worth worrying about.
When taken in powder form, it’s easily digested and absorbed by the body for maximum benefits. Unfortunately, our bodies cannot synthesize enough collagen on it’s own and our diets today contain minimal collagen. Many of the products from Vital Proteins are odorless, tasteless and dissolve instantly in hot or cold liquids, so you can easily mix it into your coffee, tea or smoothie without even knowing that it’s there.
I’ve been mixing a scoop into my coffee for a little over a month and the results are already noticeable. My hair has finally started growing again after a serious non-growth lull and my skin has more elasticity and luminosity. Plus, each scoop of collagen peptides has 9 grams of protein so it helps fight off that mid-morning hunger!
Additional benefits of taking collagen:
– Glowing skin
– A more youthful appearance
– Joint health
– Tendon & bone strength
– Healthy cartilage
– Increased athletic performance
– Improved digestion
– Gut health
– Deeper sleep
I honestly cannot recommend this product enough! I’m a huge supporter of Vital Proteins and think everyone can benefit from taking collagen peptides. If you have any questions regarding this post, please feel free to reach out directly or read more here. x
