Collagen

The most prevalent and complex type of protein in our body, collagen serves as the main constituent of our connective tissue to protect, assist in the healthy operation of, and give structure to our muscles, skin, bones, organs, joints, and cartilage.

An important fibrous protein, production of collagen declines as we age, which can lead to a decline in the strength, structure, and elasticity of our connective tissue including our hair, skin, and nails. There are multiple types of collagen from different sources that are used for a variety of nutritional or topical applications.
