Our body's collagen production naturally slows down as we age, that's when signs of aging show up...(wrinkles etc ) and also health issues. Collagen can help not just with looks but with the healthy functioning of many body systems
Body Can Build Its Own Collagen
Our bodies have an innate ability to build its own collagen. This ability decreases with age and from lifestyle choices. Animal based collagen can be difficult to absorb and utilize because the structure of collagen molecules is fibrous and insoluble. If you give your body the collagen building blocks that it needs, it already has the intelligence to use and build your own natural collagen. Plant based vegan collagen building peptides are available. These are powerful in providing your body with the collagen building blocks that it needs to build its own collagen. Look for plant based vegan collagen building peptides that are soy-free, gluten-free, with no added sugars, and is vegan. Typically this is made with mushroom extract, amla extract, spirulina, monk fruit extract and other all natural and vegan nutrient dense foods.
You can add the peptides to most drinks. One tasty way is to use it in a smoothie. Here is a simple smoothie recipe that combines well with the vegan collagen building peptides to further enhance the body's ability to build its own collagen.
