Why is everyone talking about collagen? Because we use collagen in so many important body structures! Collagen makes up about 3 kg of our body weight, this molecule provides strength and structure to our skin, bones, joints, ligaments and tendons. So, we need collagen! 💪🏻
I first shared these tips on @globaltv, but I wanted to share them with you again! This month we’re talking about gut health and there’s no talking about gut health without mentioning collagen!
Collagen and gut health! Collagen is amazing for building and repairing the connective tissue throughout our digestive tract and stomach lining, which helps to keep our gut lining impermeable. Collagen is also high in gut-loving amino acids glutamate, glycine and proline.
