If you can read this, you have heard about collagen in one way or another.
It appears as though everybody is discussing the advantages of collagen protein: gleaming skin, flexible joints and strong bones. Let me give you the lowdown on this hardworking protein, and the ways in which it benefits your body and how to get more collagen in your life. Your body will thank you.
Collagen is a protein that acts as building blocks for your bones, teeth, muscles, skin, joints and connective tissues. Consider it the magic that binds your body. The most bounteous protein in the body, collagen makes up more than 33% of your overall protein in your body. It’s rich in glycine, proline and hydroxyproline — the amino acids that help your body make new collagen. [1]
Collagen peptides fortify your joints, making them stronger. Research shows that taking hydrolyzed collagen (otherwise known as collagen protein powder) decreases joint discomfort after exercise and boosts the density of your cartilage, making joints more adaptable to wear and tear. A report found that athletes who consumed collagen for a half year saw an improvement in joint pain after exercise. [2][3]
