What is collagen? Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body. It’s acts as a structural support system holding together your skin, joints, bones, muscles and even the lining of your gut. Our natural collagen production really declines after 40 especially combined with stress, hormonal shifts, and the physical demands of daily life. This is why many women begin to notice Skin that feels less firm Achy joints or stiffness Slower recovery after workouts Thinning hair or brittle nails Digestive discomfort Changes in muscle tone Is collagen worth taking after 40? For many women yes because it supports the structure of the body as its needs change. This is why we’ve added collagen to our Necessary Nutrition line! Collagen works quietly in the background strengthening that foundation that allows everything else to work better. Try Necessary Collagen today 🥳 Link in bio. Add 1/2 scoop to your coffee, tea, smoothie, yogurt, oatmeal, soups… P.S. Collagen is NOT plant based or vegan

Most collagen never makes it where it matters. MetaPWR Advantage does. Here’s the difference 👇 Many collagen drinks rely on one or two collagen types, with molecules that are simply too large for your cells to absorb. They pass through your system without doing much at all. MetaPWR Advantage was designed differently. It delivers 9 types of marine collagen in small, bioavailable peptides, so your body can actually absorb, use, and rebuild from the inside out. But collagen is only part of the equation. After age 25, NAD+ levels naturally decline. NAD+ is essential for cellular energy, DNA repair, and healthy aging. When it drops, we notice it as fatigue, dull skin, slower recovery, and brain fog. That’s why MetaPWR Advantage includes NMN, the direct precursor to NAD+. By replenishing NMN, your body can restore NAD+ naturally and support cellular function at a deeper level. The result? ✨ firmer, glowing skin ⚡ steady, sustained energy 🧠 clearer focus 💛 a body that feels vibrant again This isn’t just collagen. It’s collagen your body can actually use, paired with cellular energy support where aging truly begins.

“Why don’t you recommend collagen supplements?” Because I’m guided by evidence - not marketing. When you ingest collagen, it’s broken down in the gut into individual amino acids. Your body doesn’t magically send it straight to your skin. It uses those amino acids wherever they’re needed most - muscles, organs, enzymes, repair. The current evidence for oral collagen specifically increasing skin collagen is mixed, with many studies small, short-term, or industry funded. Instead, I prefer supporting the body’s own collagen production. Collagen synthesis requires: • Vitamin C (essential cofactor for proline & lysine hydroxylation) • Zinc (DNA synthesis & tissue repair) • Copper (cross-linking collagen fibres via lysyl oxidase) • Amino acids (glycine, proline, lysine) • Antioxidants (to reduce collagen breakdown from oxidative stress) This is why I recommend formulations from Advanced Nutrition Programme - they’re designed to provide the nutrients your fibroblasts actually need to produce collagen naturally. We can’t out-supplement poor biology - but we can optimise it. Skincare + in-clinic treatments + targeted nutrition = long-term skin health. If you’re unsure what your skin actually needs, book a consultation and let’s build a plan based on science, not hype. #skinhealth #evidencebasedaesthetics #collagensupport #advancednutritionprogramme #skinspecialist

Most people don’t realize there are actually five different types of collagen — and the majority aren’t even taking the one their body truly needs. Not all collagen is formulated the same. There are five main types: Type I through Type V. And here’s something important — the type listed first on the label is the one you’re getting the highest concentration of. (Just like any ingredient list, the first one is what makes up the majority.) Type II collagen is often overlooked, yet it plays a major role in joint support, skin elasticity, hair, nails, and muscle function. That’s why some collagen products seem to “do nothing,” while others feel completely different. Once you understand which type your body actually benefits from, you start looking at labels in a whole new way. Have you heard of Snow? Grateful you’re here.

If you’ve been taking it for 3+ months and your skin still looks dull, your hair’s still thinning, and your nails are still brittle—this isn’t a “you need better collagen” problem. It’s a “your body literally can’t use it” problem. I know because I spent £600 in one year on premium collagen supplements. Took them religiously every morning. And my skin looked exactly the same. I felt like I was failing at aging—avoiding tagged photos, deleting reunion pictures, watching the mirror confirm what I feared: I looked exhausted at 44. Then I dove deeper (and eventually trained as a Nutritional Therapist) and realized: collagen doesn’t work alone. Your body needs THREE specific co-factors to actually USE that collagen to rebuild your skin, hair, and nails. Without them? It’s just expensive pee. In this video, I break down the 4 biggest mistakes sabotaging your collagen routine (including the one that destroys its bioavailability INSTANTLY before it even gets to work). Here’s what you’re missing: ✅ 20-30g protein at EVERY meal (collagen needs dietary protein for raw materials) ✅ 500mg Vitamin C WITH your collagen (the KEY enzyme for synthesis) ✅ Zinc + copper from food sources (activates enzymes that stabilize collagen) ✅ NEVER put collagen in hot coffee (heat over 60°C degrades the peptides) Now, you could try to piece this together yourself from Amazon and hope you’re getting clean ingredients, the right dosages, and proper timing... But here’s the problem: most women get the timing wrong, take the wrong FORM of Vitamin C, or buy collagen that’s low-quality fillers. I created a free Collagen Protocol Guide with the exact brands, dosages, timing I recommend—PLUS 2 more absorption hacks that triple results in half the time.

If your stomach if off, this might surprise you! I started taking collagen for the hair, skin, and nails… but what surprised me were the hidden benefits ❤️ Collagen doesn’t just support beauty from the outside. It also helps support gut lining and connective tissues in our joints. Which means less feeling “off” after meals, less bloating, and more ease when it comes to stiffness or achy joints. I love learning how God designed our bodies to be so beautifully connected. When we support one area, so often we’re blessing many others too. Our bodies are always speaking. We just have to slow down and listen. I’m loving the benefits of the collagen I’m using, and if you’re looking for one too, comment COLLAGEN or send me a message. I’d be happy to share!❤️

Okayyyy let’s talk collagen for a second because this was news to me too 😅🤍 For the longest time I thought collagen was just… collagen. Like if it said “collagen” on the tub, we were good, right? But there are actually five different types. And most of us are just grabbing whatever’s popular without realizing the type matters. Little label tip I didn’t always know: The first type listed on the label? That’s what you’re getting the MOST of. (Same rule as food labels — first ingredient = highest amount.) Here’s what really caught my attention 👀 Type II collagen is the one that often gets overlooked… but it’s closely connected to joints, elasticity, hair, nails, and overall support as we age. Which explains why some people swear collagen “does nothing”… and others say they can absolutely tell a difference. Once I understood that not all collagen is created the same, I couldn’t unlearn it. Have you heard of Snow? ❄️ Either way, I’m just grateful you’re here and learning alongside me 🤍

Not all collagen supports the same tissues. I get asked quite often which form of collagen should a person take. Let’s break it down 🐟 Marine collagen → Think fish skin: shiny, smooth, resilient → Best for hair, skin & nails 🐄 Bovine collagen → Think strong joints & muscle → Better for joints, tendons, ligaments & muscle support I wouldn’t reach for marine collagen if joint or muscle support is the goal. And if glowing skin, hair, and nails are your priority? Marine is my go-to.

Did you know there are actually 5 different types of collagen? And 4/5 people don’t need the one they’re taking? 🙌 Not all collagen is created the same. 💜 The 5 types of collagen are the type 1 through the type 5 and the type listed first on the label is what you’re getting the MOST of. (Yes the first ingredient listed on anything you use is what you find the most of.) 🤗 Type II collagen is the one most overlooked YET it’s deeply connected to joints, the skins elasticity, hair/nails/ joints/ muscles. That’s why some collagen “does nothing.. and others feel completely different. Once you understand which type your body actually needs, you can’t unsee it. Have you heard of snow? 🙌 Either way grateful for you!

A few essentials your body actually runs on 👇 Collagen support starts with Vitamin C🧬 Collagen is a large structural protein. When you ingest collagen peptides, they’re broken down into amino acids before absorption. But here’s what most people miss: ➜ Vitamin C is required for collagen synthesis Without adequate vitamin C, your body can’t properly cross-link and stabilize new collagen fibers. That means you can drink all the collagen you want… but if you’re deficient, you won’t build efficiently. 🍊 It’s not about trends. It’s about cofactors. 🔋 NAD+ / NADH = cellular energy currency NAD and NADH are central to mitochondrial function. They shuttle electrons inside your cells to help produce ATP, the molecule your body uses for energy. Low mitochondrial efficiency → lower ATP output Lower ATP → fatigue, slower repair, duller skin, brain fog This isn’t “energy” like caffeine. This is cellular respiration. When you support mitochondria, you support everything built on top of it, skin, muscle, brain, recovery. Real wellness isn’t stacking random supplements 🌿 It’s understanding how the system connects.
