Collagen is found naturally in your body and plays a crucial role in protecting, smoothing and hydrating your skin to ensure that it remains elastic and firm.

As one of the most abundant proteins in your body, collagen effectively works like scaffolding or glue, playing an important structural role in the building blocks of your cells.

As well as supplying these building blocks with natural collagen and elastin production, research shows that collagen holds together the cells in your connective tissues, while helping your body naturally produce collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.

This is important for regulating skin physiology and structure which are predominantly made by amino acids that are responsible for keeping your skin, muscles and soft tissues hydrated and taught.

Collagen also plays an important role in building keratin, the primary protein in hair and nails which is also responsible for maintaining the health of your muscles, cartilage, bones, joints, gums, teeth, blood vessels and internal organs.
