Collagen is a protein that is responsible for healthy joints, skin elasticity and stretchiness.  Collagen is found in your bones, muscles, and blood, three quarters of your skin and a third of the protein in your body is comprised of collagen.  Collagen production peaks at around the age of twenty and gradually declines with each year.  As we age, our collagen breaks down and the body finds it difficult to continue producing collagen.

Collagen supplements are not only beneficial but is essential to hydration of skin, relieving pain associated with osteoarthritis, lowering blood pressure and blood sugar levels.
