What Is Collagen?

Collagen is a protein that reverses aging, builds more muscle, and improves your skin.

Collagen gets its name from a Greek word COLA that means "glue," which makes sense, since it is basically what holds the human body together. You can find collagen in the skin, joints, ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and even in the bones and muscles.

Collagen is a long-chain amino acid and the most abundant protein in the body. It is composed of the individual amino acids Glycine, Proline, Hydroxyproline and Arginine and in nature is found exclusively in animal tissue, especially bones and connective tissue.

It is what is responsible for giving skin elasticity, hair its strength, and
connective tissue its ability to hold everything in place. In fact, the
collagen protein makes up 30% of the total protein in the body, and 70% of the protein in the skin!

What can collagen do for you?

While collagen is beneficial to the entire body, it is most noticeably beneficial to the skin. This is because as a person age, the epidermic (outer layer of skin) thins and loses elasticity in a process known as elastosis. As this happens, a
person tends to show more signs of aging and acquire more wrinkles.

The good news is that these changes do not seem to be permanent or irreversible. In fact, a double-blind placebo study conducted last year found that women who took collagen hydrolysate (the peptide form) regularly for 8 weeks saw a 20%
reduction in wrinkles!.*

Why do we need to take collagen supplements?

Collagen is a naturally occurring protein, Unfortunately, as you get older, you gradually start losing collagen. Each year after the age of 20 we produce 1% less
collagen each year.

And as we age our collagen levels decline even more quickly, once your reach menopause women lost 30% of collagen in the first 5 years.

This leads to our skin becoming looser and more fragile over time and eventually results in wrinkles, saggy skin, brittle nails, stiff joints, brittle bones, and muscle aches.

Bone Strength

Did you know that your bones contain a significant amount of collagen? Collagen provides the structure of bone, which helps keep bones strong. The natural loss
of collagen with aging may contribute to the weakening of bones over time.

Improves Gut Health

People aren't usually aware about the digestive benefits of collagen. Most seek it out for its anti-aging and joint health benefits. But this protein actually has a role to play in the digestive tract.

The glycine content of collagen has been found to promote the growth of
bifidobacteria. This is a good kind of probiotic bacteria. Good bacteria are
responsible for aiding in the digestion of food, nutrient absorption, and fighting off bad bacteria that can cause disease in the body.

Studies also found that glycine can help protect the intestine by fighting off the swelling and inflammation often seen in IBD (inflammatory bowel disease). Furthermore, glycine is found to protect the small intestine during endotoxemia, a state where endotoxins in the blood may cause bleeding, cell death, and shock.

This goes to show that collagen is important not only in helping digestion, but also in protecting the digestive tract from disease and injury.

Aids in Weight Loss

One of the biggest concerns many of us have as we get older is weight management. Maintaining a healthy weight is a lifelong struggle for many and can get harder as we get older. In fact, 70 percent of American adults are overweight and half of those adults are obese.

Not only can collagen supplementation help to rebuild skin, bones, hair, and the gut, but recent evidence suggests that collagen can help fight obesity.

One of the important reasons we consume protein is that it helps to keep our bodies full. While many people use protein powders for this purpose, a lot of protein powders are filled with fillers or unnatural additives. Collagen protein, on
the other hand, is a clean protein that can help keep you full and promote
satiety. Several studies have focused on the benefits of consuming collagen in helping people who are trying to lose weight. If you could maintain satiety longer, you may be on the road to effective weight loss simply by reducing your
own hunger.*

Improves Sleep Quality 

This is another benefit you wouldn't really expect from collagen. When you are sleeping, you enter into different levels of sleep, ranging from stage 1 to 4. In the deep sleep stage is when your body rests and recovers. In this stage, growth hormone is released as well which is what fuels your muscle growth.

According to research on the effects of collagen intake on sleeping patterns people who took collagen before sleeping reported better quality sleep. The measurements
done also showed that the subjects fell asleep faster and reached deep sleep quicker than those who took the placebo. They were also found to not feel fatigued during the day and had good mental performance. Even if they didn't say that their sleep quality got better after consuming collagen, their cognitive performance tests still showed improvements.*
