♫ Supplement Supplement, Everywhere a Supplement ♫
Supplements are no doubt, overtaking grocery stores and online retailers. And they have a new poster child: COLLAGEN.
Collagen’s Popularity
Collagen. So hot right now.
But, why?
Collagen is a protein and it’s everywhere in mammals — including us, humans! However, our bodies start to decrease collagen production around 25 years of age. This is a problem for our joints, ligaments, tendons, and the ever-so-popular beauty factor (hair, skin, nails).
Of course, this isn’t a problem if you’ve been eating foods high in collagen. But, and unfortunately, most of us don’t drink bone broth and eat organ meats regularly — and if you have, congrats on replenishing your declining collagen and being in the top 1% of people that eat this way!
This is why collagen supplements exist today. And why they’re growing. Scoop of collagen powder in my coffee or cook up a cow’s second stomach? Hmmm. Since collagen can be taken at really any age, most of us will opt for that supplement.
And the data proves it.
