What is Collagen? Collagen is a natural structural protein and accounts for more than a 1/3 of the body's protein as well as 75% of the skins volume. Basically its the glue that holds our bodies together. Did you know the word "Collagen" is the Greek translation for "glue producing"!
Why should I take My Collagen Capsules? From the age of 25 years our collagen levels deplete at around 1.5% per year. And if that isn't enough, there are other environmental factors such as sun damage, smoking, pollution and stress that can all contribute to premature ageing.
What are the benefits of taking My Collagen Capsules over collagen creams and specialist procedures? Popular collagen creams have been around for years, however due to the skin replacing itself daily these creams only penetrate the first 2 of 5 layers of your skin. Im sure your've all heard of injectable fillers and wrinkle treatments, although these procedures seem to have an almost immediate effect, they can be painful, expensive and only target specific areas with SHORT TERM benefits. Although My Collagen Capsules don't offer immediate results, it is EASY, NATURAL & EFFECTIVE, is a fraction of the cost of alternative treatments, Non Toxic and ensures the collagen is distributed and assists where it is needed most. By taking My Collagen Capsules daily you are also helping to stimulate the production of your own natural collagen stores.
How does collagen help with weight management? The most popular commercial use has been for weight management. Contrary to what some companies promote, collagen itself does not burn fat; however, it place the body's fat metabolism in an optimal state to do so. When taken at bedtime, it is extremely effective during the first phase of sleep in which the body is in a natural state of repair, building and healing muscle tissue. Collagen's specific amino acids help to preserve and build lean muscle.
How long before I see any results? Everyone is different and individual results may vary, however some people report results soon after taking My Collagen Capsules, with most people noticing visible results within the first 1-2 months. That is why My Collagen Capsules recommend our Introductory phase where for the first 3 months you take 3 capsules last thing at night. After this 3 month phase you can then reduce to our Maintenance Course where you will only need to take 2 capsules last thing at night.
Why do I take the capsules at night and not in the morning? My Collagen Capsules recommend taking the capsules just before you go to bed because the emptier your stomach the better. The idea is that the collagen is ingested not digested. In the first 45 - 90 minutes your body enters a state called "Alpha Sleep Mode" ensuring optimum results during this rejuvenation period.
How do My Collagen Capsules support a good nights sleep? The abundant amino acid, arginine, found in collagen protein supports melatonin production and a refreshing nights sleep.
More Energy? Unlike many popular weight management products, collagen protein contains no harmful stimulants. Its natural and unique amino acids create a self-regulating effect to enhance sleep when taken before bedtime and to increase energy levels when taken in the morning or during the day.
Are there any side-effects? There are no known side-effects; My Collagen Capsules are natural and well tolerated. It is always recommended that you consult your doctor if you are on medication or have any allergies prior to taking any dietary supplement.
