So, what is collageen?

Collagen is a protein that is an essential building block of our skin, bones, and connective tissues. It is the most abundant protein in the human body and plays a crucial role in maintaining skin elasticity, joint health, and overall body strength. Collagen is also responsible for the firmness and suppleness of our skin, making it a popular ingredient in skincare products. In addition to its structural benefits, collagen has been found to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, making it an excellent supplement for promoting overall health and wellness. As a food ingredient, collagen is often added to beverages and foods as a protein source, and is also available in supplement form.
