I’ve got a bonus breakfast idea for you today that’ll help give your body a shot of some important proteins that form the structure of your body – from your skin and hair to your teeth, bones, and blood vessels.
The tip: try adding collagen peptides to your morning coffee!
Collagen is your body’s most abundant protein, making up about ⅓ of your total protein composition.
But as you get older, your body produces less and less collagen. Plus, the collagen that it actually does produce is of lower quality.
Studies show that adding collagen to your diet may help improve your skin complexion, cut joint pain related to arthritis, and slow bone loss.
Win-Win-Win.
Since most collagen powder supplements have a neutral taste, you can stir it right into your coffee in the morning and not even know it’s in there.
FUN FACT: Collagen is basically the same as gelatin, except it has been processed differently, which means it can be easier to digest.
Plus, because collagen supplements have grown in popularity over the past several years, they’re easy to find in stores – in fact, most grocery stores even carry them now.
It’s always a good idea to check with your healthcare provider or pharmacist before adding a new supplement to your regimen.
Make it an amazing day
