The Scoop on Collagen

The Scoop on Collagen

The Scoop on Collagen

As we age, our body slows the production of collagen, causing this essential protein to break down. The loss of collagen leads to a collapsing dermal layer, which is why our skin sags and wrinkles; our hair becomes thinner, dull or lifeless; joints stiffen and become less flexible; bones weaken and become brittle; and our body becomes less toned.

With regards to skin, collagen has been shown to help with:

  • Improve skin moisture level, smoothness and suppleness

  • Prevent signs of aging such as deep wrinkles, fine lines

  • Prevent UVB induced skin damage

At Zawada Health, we have two great collagen products available – TruMarine and Vital Proteins Collagen! TruMarine and Vital Proteins Collagen are BOTH great for joint health, bone health and skin health.

The Differences in Collagens– The Sources!

 

Tru Marine

Marine Collagen is sourced from fish scales. It is a great option for vegetarians who eat fish, but not other meat sources.

Vital Proteins

Vital proteins collagen peptides are sourced from grass-fed pasture-raised bovine from Brazil.

Tips on Using Jade Rollers and Gua Sha Stones

I always found the time to use my jade roller or gua sha a few times a week in the past, even if it was for a minute before my morning shower; but fell out of routine after having my third child.  Over the last year I have tried to step up my evening skincare routine.  I needed to add a little bit of downtime before bed to relax and do something for me.  It was the perfect time to establish a new routine and bring out my anti-aging tools :)
