Why should you supplement with collagen?

.

Health should be taken care of from the inside out. Around 25 years of age your body's natural collagen production begins to declineand.

This is why the first crow's feet appear, skin loses firmness and creams don't work as they should. After a few years, your joints may be bothering you and limiting your activities. Start your repair from the inside out - consider collagen supplementation.

Taking fish collagen in a minimum 2,500 mg serving for 3 months affects the look and condition of your hairskin and nailsand. Collagen is also an ally of the musculoskeletal system - a 5-10g serving supports the health of jointsbones and muscles .
