QLately, I keep hearing about collagen. What is it and does it really help?

AI don’t blame you for being a bit skeptical! Every day there is a new fad and yes…. you may ask…does it really help? I actually waited a little while before addressing this question as I was experimenting with collagen on my own. After using collagen powder for 4 weeks, I can say a resounding yes! I do see a big difference! But first, what is collagen?

Collagen is a type of protein. In fact, it’s the most abundant structural protein in animals. Collagen is found in our stomach lining, bones, joints, tendons, hair, and nails (just to name a few). Regular proteins are used to build muscle tissue, make enzymes and other body chemicals, and serve as the building blocks of bones, skin, blood, and muscles.

Collagen specializes in repairing parts of our body, including the largest organ: the skin. Wear and tear is no joke, and collagen is the protein that knows this and tackles it head on, wherever it may be needed. The issue with our body’s collagen? When we reach our twenties, our natural production of collagen starts slowing down and keeps dramatically decreasing as we age. In fact, collagen production decreases by 23% each subsequent year. So, while our bodies continue using and needing collagen, we aren’t replenishing it at the same rate as when we were younger. This can become quite a problem considering collagen is what keeps our teeth, hair, bones, eyelashes, skin, and joints young and at their optimum strength.

One way you can regain collagen is through supplementing with collagen. The word collagen comes from the Greek word kolla, which means glue. By taking collagen supplements, you are actually giving your body what it is missing. Collagen specifically will help with the growth and quality of your hair, skin and nails.

Currently, as far as I am concerned, there is only one kosher OU certified collagen powder called Absolute Collagen. This collagen is bovine collagen, meaning that it comes from the skin, muscles, bones or tendons of cows. This product can be purchased in any health store or grocery. Taking a full teaspoon of powder daily for a good few weeks can really up your collagen production and help you glow! Collagen is odor and taste free. I enjoy adding it to my coffee each morning knowing that besides my cup of Joe, I am also getting in extra protein that my body will use well! Try it for yourself.
