Collagen supplements have been around for some time, but their current increasing popularity has not gone unnoticed by journalist/blogger Wies from BLOW – A Little Fun Growing Older. After reading many studies and speaking with experts, she comes to the conclusion that the new insights about collagen supplementation are promising! She likes to try out CelioGenix.
“Let’s get to the supplements. The most interesting and most promising of the three.”
“A while ago – and now still in some collagen products – the collagen as a protein molecule in supplements was too large to be absorbed from the intestinal tract. It was broken down in the digestive tract and thus never made it to the skin. So no, it didn’t make much sense. But it has now become clear that hydrolyzed collagen can be well absorbed from the intestinal tract and can end up in the deep dermis collagen layer of the skin. Hydrolyzed means that the collagen has broken down into smaller, more absorbable particles: peptides.”
“Self test”
“Now that I know this, I want to experience it myself. A friend who is an avid user of collagen supplements has said it so many times when I voiced my doubts: “Just try it for yourself, you’ll see a real difference.” Because she swears by the CelioGenix brand (“my skin is so much firmer”) I have now bought it too. Partly because, in addition to 10,000 mg of hydrolyzed collagen, this drink also contains a lot of essential vitamins and minerals (17 in total). That way I don’t have to take any supplements anymore. So handy. The advice is to drink a bottle every day for breakfast for the first two months. Then you should be able to see an improvement in the skin structure and you can switch back to 1 bottle every 2 to 3 days. Bring on that firmer skin!”
