So you were losing 1% of collagen per year.
That's normal, but that's not the bad part.
The most troubling issue to you is you lose it precipitously
from age 30 to age 50.
So it catches my patients off guard when they arrive at age 35 with what?
Crow's feet.
Forehead lines, jowls, nasolabial folds, and skin sag.
That's okay.
We have this, but wait, the next issue is especially for women.
They see bone loss and estrogen loss.
Yes.
Real estrogen loss decreases by the thirties and that
accelerates the bone loss.
And the skin thinning, that's the issue.
It's not all depressing because we now do have the technology to
prevent skin thinning and even build collagen back, build bone back and
improve your durable thickness.
When the skin thins, you get fine lines and wrinkles.
This graph shows collagen and age and look at it.
It shows it to be linear here.
But that's not right.
If that were the case, uh, then you could, if you figured it out at age
30 or 35, you'd say, okay, great.
It's linear.
I've lost linear college.
And even by 40, you can save yourself this college and loss,
but check out the real graph here.
This is the real graph and it comes here.
And this is where.
Most of the collagen loss occurs at this steep part right there, and
that's between, like, say, 30 and 45.
And that's because if we measured estrogen and hormones at that age,
that would be going down as well.
Here's the problem that I see in real clinical practice with my patients.
Okay, we used to see the loss come here between these two parameters.
Uh, say 30 to 45 this whole graph is shifted to the left And so what
we're seeing now is college and loss here where it should be optimized at
20 We're seeing that age drastically change So unfortunately younger people
have to pay more and more attention to and here you see the effect of
it Young see these collagen fibrils.
They look great.
They're strong.
They're supportive.
See how they break over here What happens when collagen breaks down you get skin
thinning wrinkles shallow wrinkle Medium and then where it says old here, you're
getting deeper lines and wrinkles.
So collagen absolutely key this you may be taking the right ingredients, but like
baking a cake the order And the manner you use them determines the outcome.
I'm going to discuss today, five essential tips to get the most out of your college
and powder, just because you're taking it doesn't mean it's going to work.
You need to take the right one, the right dose.
And in the right way.
So why has collagen powder become the most popular supplement?
Simply put collagen is the most abundant protein in our body, providing
structure support to her skin, hair, nails, bones, and ligaments.
And when people take collagen powder, that's exactly what
they're seeing improvement.
But as we age, our bodies produce less and less collagen, which can lead to
various signs of aging, such as wrinkles.
Brittle nails, hair thinning, and that's where college and power comes in.
Supplies your body with the building blocks to turn back the clock skeptical.
Well, various studies, including one from the journal of cosmetic dermatology in
2019 found that college and peptides.
Or collagen supplements, as they're called, can help improve skin elasticity,
hydration, and dermal collagen density.
Read the comments below my videos on college and powders.
And of course I do this every day in clinical practice.
So I see it in my patients and you'll see the raving reviews.
If my patients weren't coming in raving about the effects and my facial imaging.
Was telling me that this wasn't working.
I wouldn't waste my time, money, and effort either, but
personally I see the effects.
In fact, college and powder is the number one selling product in my clinic.
Yes.
Above skincare.
Now, why would that be?
Well, it's because it helps with so many things.
It's ubiquitous.
Hair, skin, nails, and joints.
So once people see the effects, they purchase it for their friends and family.
Those who aren't even interested in aesthetics, you do need to
take it correctly, however.
So let's dive into these five tips to make sure you are maximizing the benefits.
Number one, first, make sure you choose a high quality college and powder.
Look for a brand that sources from grass fed.
Pasture raised animals or wild caught fish to ensure that you're getting
the purest and most ethical product.
Look for made in the USA GMP, good manufacturing process certified
and triple tested for heavy metals.
Now I'm sure you've all seen the recent recalls from the lesser brands.
Less expensive does in fact, often mean less effective and even dangerous.
Often they cut corners.
You get one body and one face cut corners.
When you go purchase your car, not on your face.
Tip number two, collagen powder can be incorporated into your diet in many ways.
In your morning coffee, I know is how many of you use it.
Your post workout smoothie is another one, even in your favorite
recipes, when you're eating food, you want your coffee temperature
to be under 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
If you're putting it in your coffee and that makes sure it dissolves
properly, but also that decreases the risk of cancer because hot, hot fluids
have been shown to increase the risk.
Of esophageal cancer.
Uh, and you don't want to change the consistency and the
effectiveness of your powder either.
Does the time of day matter?
No with college and powder.
It's really nice because you can take it at different times of the day.
Morning, noon in the evening doesn't affect its efficacy.
Number three, consistency is key.
Taking your collagen powder daily ensures a steady supply of this
important protein to your body.
If it's challenging to remember to take it, I know it is for me.
Sometimes try integrating it into your routine, like have it with your
breakfast on those days where you're not fasting and when you do fast.
You can break your fast with a college and smoothie.
It's one of the best ways.
And that leaves you feeling full and you get your dose of it.
I do like fasting and I think, uh, initiating autophagy, uh, with sleep,
with exercise and intermittent fasting.
And I do like 14 to 16 hours.
Isn't that's enough to get your autophagy initiated.
If you have questions on that, definitely watch my.
Video on a top of G I'll put at the end of this one.
So you can watch that next number four, always take your college and powder
with vitamin C or vitamin C rich food.
Why a study in the American journal of clinical nutrition explains
that vitamin C is essential for college and synthesis in our body.
You also want to think of silica and vitamin a.
Those are next in line of importance.
If you're not getting these from foods, check out my Plasbury store gummies.
They have silica, A, C, and E.
Those are really the building blocks, kind of the glue that holds that college
and together, if you want to think of it.
And so they are kind of the supporting cast.
So you want to definitely be mindful of what you're taking
your college and powder with.
So when it gets in there, it has all the elements.
To really boost that collagen, but also give you structured support to your skin.
Number five, understand the collagen powder is a supplement
and it's not a cure all.
Number one is a balanced diet and eating real food, a healthy
lifestyle, and of course, great sleep.
You also want to exercise.
And by that, I mean, 30 minutes.
Three times a week, and you need strength training.
I know many of you are on the treadmill or walking, which is great.
But as a woman, if you're a female watching this, you need strength
training, because that's going to help your bone C resistance.
It's also going to boost your testosterone and your hormones.
All important as you go through your thirties, forties, fifties and above.
