Did you know that collagen levels begin to diminish in your early 20s and by age 35, most women need supplementation to have normal amounts that they used to produce on their own?

That means more lines, more wrinkles, finer hair, weaker nails… um, no thank you. Luckily, collagen is a supplement we can add to our daily routine, but we have to check for quality because there are all kinds of brands out there claiming everything under the stars, but don’t really produce any benefits!

Beachbody’s Collagen Boost is formulated with optimized bioactive collagen peptides shown to help stimulate the creation of collagen and elastin, and is 100% gluten free! It also taps out at 10 calories per serving, so you can add it to your superfoods or nightly tea.

Yup - collagen can be safely added to cold or hot drinks ☕, but all brands do not state this, so make sure and check the label if you’re drinking a different brand. Some require collagen to be mixed with cold beverages only and must be drank 30 minutes before a meal. My mornings are too busy to focus on that! Also there are 5 types so check and verify which types you’re buying!
