Ingredient Spotlight: COLLAGEN

By Poosh
pinterest facebook twitter email
@katie_levine_

When we hear the word “collagen,” our minds immediately direct to images of plump pouts and shiny, taut skin. While it used to be thought of solely as a mainstream injectable, we now know it as our number-one supplement—no green smoothie is complete without it. The most ample protein in the body, collagen is not only responsible for the “bounce-back” quality of our skin that makes us appear youthful and vibrant, but it also strengthens our bones, ligaments, and tendons and makes up parts of vital organs throughout the gut and digestive system.

MIND

The central nervous system doesn’t regenerate easily on its own, which makes studies like this imperative in the fight against degenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s. It explains that collagen, the most prolific protein in the cellular matrix of skin and major organs like the brain, is an important biomaterial for brain repair. Although studies are still ongoing to decipher if ingesting collagen can support this process, the amino acid glycine, found in all types of collagen, plays a major role in boosting brain performance.

BODY

Glutamine, another amino acid found in collagen, supports digestive health and plays a major role in treating IBS and leaky gut syndrome. This report explains that it reduces inflammation, strengthens the intestinal lining, and helps regulate stomach acid secretions. Many diseases and health issues that manifest on the skin actually begin in the gut, so it’s a great place to start.

BEAUTY

Collagen can be found in scar tissue and medical wound dressings because it helps form a network of cells called fibroblasts—a strong, supportive material that boosts the growth of new cells. Strengthening the dermis helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, hyperpigmentation due to scarring, and the dimpling effect known as cellulite. Collagen peptides in skincare are ultra-plumping, and when combined with actives like antioxidants and hydrating acids, can provide preventative and lasting results.
