 anti ageing benefits of collagen kollo health

Does collagen have anti-ageing benefits?

No matter how old you are, we all want our skin to be brighter, plumper and firmer. If you are of a certain age, however, you may also be struggling with fine lines and wrinkles forming on your complexion and wish for smoother, tighter skin. Below we explore the relationship between collagen supplements and anti-ageing benefits… What is collagen? Collagen is a natural protein created by the body that provides a structure for many parts of the body including skin, bones and ligaments. Collagen can also help to repair tissue damage. As you get older, your body will naturally produce less collagen, which is why your skin may begin to feel dry and wrinkled as you age. Can collagen help slow the ageing appearance of skin? Kollo is a marine collagen supplement that can improve the health and appearance of skin. If taken regularly, marine collagen can help the ageing...

Ever had a ‘gut feeling’ about collagen supplements?

We might not realise how important it is but a well-balanced digestive system and gut health can do so much for the way we feel by reducing our stress levels, improving our mental wellbeing and even increasing our physical health.  When experiencing inflammation of the gut, high stomach acid levels and a poor digestive system can have a negative impact on the way we look and feel. The way that collagen tries to help this is through its unique properties and amino acids allowing the protein to deliver its many benefits, especially in the way our gut functions.  Why is our gut function so essential to our health?Studies have shown how your gut and brain are connected by physical and chemical connections. This is called the gut-brain axis and according to research, your brain affects your gut health and this can also work in reverse with your gut health affecting...

What is collagen made of and what will it do for me?

We’re sure most of you have a good idea of what collagen is and the benefits we get from it. In recent years we have seen an increase of the accessibility there has been for ordinary people to consume a collagen supplement rather than it being a product for the elite end of the beauty industry. But are people actually aware of what collagen is made of? What is in collagen?So collagen is a protein that is made of amino acids, primarily proline, glycine, hydroxyproline and arginine which are known as the ‘non-essential’ amino acids. The reason we say they are non-essential is because it is not the food we eat that we get these from but otherwise our body naturally producing them.  Collagen is a vital component in keeping our body healthy. You’ll find collagen in the flesh and connective tissues of mammals which helps keep the firmness and...

 marine collagen and psoriasis kollo health

Can marine collagen help psoriasis sufferers?

Can marine collagen help psoriasis sufferers? We know that collagen has so many benefits for our skin and how it repairs the skin collagen and the elastin protein fibres. People say how they notice fewer wrinkles and improved skin hydration after regular consumption of a marine collagen supplement. However, marine collagen has been found to also help treat certain skin conditions like psoriasis. Psoriasis occurs when skin cells are produced too quickly by the body which then results in the immune system accidentally attacking healthy cells. This is what brings out the red and sometimes sore and itchy appearance of psoriasis. What collagen supplements can do for psoriasis Now we all know that a collagen supplement wouldn’t cure psoriasis but we do know that it can definitely help with the symptoms involved in conjunction with vitamin C and with the help of a healthy diet involving whole foods that are...

How to bring back your skin’s natural glow

Collagen plays an essential role in biological function. It is the protein that forms the structural framework of a person's skin. But it's not just crucial for good skin health. It contains essential B vitamins including B, B1, B5, B6 and B12, all of which support the healthy function of other body parts such as tendons and joints, bones and muscles.Your body’s collagen production capacity dwindles every yearCollagen is a naturally occurring protein. In other words, our bodies manufacture it if we eat and drink healthily and exercise regularly. Unfortunately, as we age, our bodies' capacity to produce collagen lessens by approximately 2% per annum.Other things interfere with collagen production; things like exposure to the sun, and pollution in the air that we breathe.What happens as collagen reserves become depleted is that fine lines begin to appear in your skin, and it loses its natural radiance; your nails become more...

 Why marine collagen is so marvellous 

Why marine collagen is so marvellous 

Most people have heard the phrase ‘marine collagen’ but not everyone is actually sure of what this sister product of collagen is about. You will have seen in previous blogs that we talk about how we produce collagen and as we get older it’s recommended we add a collagen supplement to our diet to ensure we are getting enough collagen to the areas that our body needs it most. But what is the fuss about marine collagen and how can this transform our skin? Marine Collagen is exactly what it says on the tin, it’s from ‘marine life’ as opposed to the collagen proteins we find in humans and bovine. Collagen is naturally produced within our body and helps to give us that youthful, smooth plump skin. In addition to this it helps the body go through the natural regeneration process for things like our integral tissues such as bone,...

Kollo Liquid Marine Collagen - Be younger, be happier. B12 

We all know how important it is for our bodies to intake a range of vitamins and minerals to help us stay healthy. One of the key vitamins that our body needs is vitamin B12. B12 helps the DNA synthesis, the production of red blood cells and allows nerve cells to function in the way they should. As we can’t produce this alone, we need to ensure we are adding the recommended amount of 2.4mcg per day to our diet.  You can get more B12 through the consumption of animal foods such as fish, chicken, beef and ham, though it can be difficult to ensure that your body is getting a high volume of B12 each day. This is why a supplement like Kollo Liquid Marine Collagen is so handy and efficient to help make sure our body is performing at its optimum level having added B12 as well as...

How collagen supplements can make you feel great inside and out

The first thing that often springs to mind when we hear the word ‘collagen’ is that it makes ourselves look younger and less wrinkled; however, this is not only the case. Collagen is a protein and it is so important to our body; we produce this protein naturally every day which helps keep our skin plump, our joints healthy and brain working properly. However, after the age of 25, the collagen we produce starts to slow down - one of the reasons we start to feel and see the effects of ageing!   When our bodies no longer produce as much collagen, we start to see the appearance of liver spots, skin sagging, wrinkles and fine lines, especially on areas like our hands and face where we can’t hide it as easily.  Luckily, we have a special weapon that can help fuel our bodies with its collagen that it needs. Starting...

For this reason, collagen supplements are hugely popular in Hollywood with celebs who like to keep their skin looking young and fresh. Let's look at five big Hollywood celebrities who swear by the anti-ageing benefits of collagen. 1.
