Let’s Talk About Collagen
Collagen plays a crucial and expansive role in our bodies, inside and out. Because of its almost-magical powers, collagen is one of the most popular skin supplements available with great benefits beyond just dewy, bouncy skin.
Collagen acts as the foundational structure of our connective tissues which includes our skin, hair, nails, gut, bones, tendons, ligaments and joints. It’s abundant in our bodies and supplementing this important element can work wonders, especially as volumes dwindle or break down over time.
The biggest contributors to the break down of collagen in our skin are UV damage, oxidative stress and our lifestyles - such as poor nutrition with a diet high in inflammatory foods, poor quality sleep, smoking and vaping, as well as excessive alcohol consumption. Our skin’s natural ageing process means we also produce less collagen as we age, and lifestyle factors can fast track that process.
Numerous studies show that oral collagen supplements can improve the signs of ageing, including thinning skin, loss of elasticity, epidermal water loss and fine lines and wrinkles. It’s important to remember though that not all supplements are created equal.
Here at Glo, we recommend Innour, a doctor-developed formula made with natural marine collagen sustainably sourced from fish skin. It works to stimulate our body’s own natural collagen production, promoting healthy hair, skin and nails but can also support the gut, cartilage and intestines. Innour has been engineered to work with our body and enhance our radiance from within. This is achieved through hydrolysation, a collagen-activation process that enhances absorption and optimises results. We recommend enjoying 2 sachets per day mixed into your food or drink of choice.
