What is collagen? 
Collagen is the most common protein found in the body. It is found in tendons, fat, and ligaments, among other places. It helps our body parts hold together, which is crucial to the strength of our bone structure. When collagen levels are healthy, the collagen-containing cells take on a firm, youthful appearance.

What Impacts Our Collagen Levels?
Our collagen peaks around 25-34 years old before beginning to naturally decrease, resulting in a higher likelihood of thinning skin, loss of elasticity, and the formation of wrinkles.2
