Learn about the many health benefits of collagen supplements.

My daughter first drew my attention to collagen supplement powders after I complained to her about my fingernails and thinning hair. My skin had lost some elasticity and my joints were achy when humidity was high. I am in my early 50’s and have been taking a collagen supplement powder daily for about five years. I wish I had started taking collagen supplements twenty years earlier. Read to the end to learn 3 frequently asked questions about collagen peptide powder.

Most of us notice a decrease in collagen production as early as our mid 30’s. That is when fine lines will appear around the eyes, skin will start to sag and become dull, hair will often get thinner and we slowly start to develop age or sun spots. Sadly, these are just a few of the early signs of aging.

Since we don’t all age at the same speed, it’s a good idea to start taking a quality collagen supplement pretty early in life. It will not only benefit your skin, hair and joints, but will also support healthy weight management since this supplement is low in calories and high in protein. In addition, collagen may help improve the structure and permeability of the lining in your gut. This lining serves as a barrier to harmful parasites, bacteria and toxins, and is important for the absorption of nutrients.

Even though collagen supplements can come from many different sources, Bovine (cattle) has been found to be the most potent and effective source for collagen. It’s good to know that Naked Collagen uses only one ingredient – Bovine hide collagen peptides sourced from pasture-raised cows in Europe that eat a natural grass diet. You probably already know this, but in case you don’t, Europe has much higher standards and inspection procedures for all of their livestock and agriculture.

I also like the fact that Naked Collagen Peptides Protein Powder is independently third party tested for purity, safety from heavy metals contamination and nutritional value. So you can rest assured collagen from Naked Nutrition is GMO free, Keto and Paleo friendly and has no fillers, sweeteners or added flavors.

It is recommended that you look for a supplement that lists at least 9 different amino acids. Look at the impressive Amino Acid Profile in each can of Naked Collagen and compare it to some of the other supplements on the market today. Each serving of this powder includes 9 grams of protein and only 35 calories.

Personally, I prefer collagen in powder form instead of gummies or tablets. Luckily, Naked Collagen is available in convenient Single Serve Packets and a 20 oz. Container.

Healthy Living Work Out Tip

If you want to decrease workout recovery time after going to the gym or playing a game of tennis, pair a scoop of Naked Collagen with the Naked Whey powder and add some frozen fruit and milk. It creates the ultimate, nutrition-packed protein shake to support muscle recovery and overall health. Collagen gets to work in the body pretty much as soon as it’s absorbed and taking collagen with a source of vitamin C like Kiwi, strawberries, pineapple and orange supports your body’s natural production of collagen.
