There are lots of products on the market that claim to boost collagen in your body, but what exactly is collagen and what are the benefits to boosting it in your body? According to the Cleveland Clinic, “collagen is a protein—the most plentiful protein in your body. It’s in your muscles, bones, tendons, ligaments, organs, blood vessels, skin, intestinal lining and other connective tissues. While you can’t measure your collagen level, you can tell when it’s falling. Collagen decreases as you get older, contributing to wrinkles and crepey skin, stiffer, less flexible tendons and ligaments, shrinking, weakening muscles,” and a variety of other possible health issues.

Although collagen production decreases as we age, it is still possible for the body to make it. “When your body makes collagen, it combines amino acids—nutrients you get from eating protein-rich foods, like beef, chicken, fish, beans, eggs and dairy products. The process also requires vitamin C, zinc and copper. You can get vitamin C by eating citrus fruits, red and green peppers, tomatoes, broccoli and greens. You can get the minerals by eating meats, shellfish, nuts, whole grains and beans.

As you age, however, your body may no longer absorb nutrients as well or synthesize them as efficiently…To make sure your body has enough ingredients to make collagen, you may need to change what you eat or take dietary supplements.”[1] Be sure to talk to your doctor before making any dietary changes, but guess what else features a boost of collagen?
