Pure Collagen provides type 1 collagen protein which is the most abundant type in the human body alongside a small amount of type 3 collagen. Collagen is prevalent in connective tissues and found in high concentrations in the skin, tendons, ligaments and bones.

• Skin health: Hydrolysed collagen supplements have been shown to reach the deeper layers of the skin and improve skin physiology and appearance, increasing hydration, elasticity, firmness, reducing wrinkles, and rejuvenating skin (1).
• Joint health: Collagen can help with pain management, stiffness, and support mobility due to the anti-inflammatory nature of its amino acids including glycine and proline, which are essential for the stability and regeneration of cartilage (2).
• Gut health: Daily collagen use may reduce bloating and improve mild digestive symptoms (3).  

Exercise performance: Research has shown that supplementing with collagen powder after resistance training helps to increase muscle mass and strength (4).

We recommend using collagen daily for optimal results. The benefits really depend on the individual and what you are taking the products for, but we would recommend taking it for 6-8 weeks to begin to see benefits and continuing on a long-term basis for best results.

• Frequency: We recommend using 1-1.5 serving (7.5g-10g) once or twice a day with food, or between meals. If you are new to collagen, we recommend starting with a lower amount and gradually building up the dosage you use.
•  Timing: You can use it in the morning for a good hit of protein to stabilise blood sugar levels, post-workout for recovery, or in the evening for additional support for repair overnight.
• Serving size: One serving of our Pure Collagen powder is 7.5g which is approx. 3.5 x 5ml level tsps.
• Taste: It has a neutral taste; you can simply add it to water or coconut water, or add it to your coffee, tea, smoothies, yoghurt bowls and more. 

Storage: Once opened, store in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture.
