Collagen is formed from three complex, fibrous long-chain proteins and encourages vibrant, glowing skin tone and texture. It’s great for skin hydration, healthy hair and nail maintenance and has anti-inflammatory properties for joint health. We use a plant-based collagen which has become more widespread over the last decade due to the rise of plant-based diets. In addition to its ethical appeal, it has fewer contaminants than animal collagen and is easier to pass through our intestinal wall.

Selenium is an essential mineral high in antioxidants that plays an important role in protecting cells from damage, promoting thyroid and reproductive function and playing a role in DNA synthesis. Selenium is well known for its ability to reduce oxidative stress in the body, which left unchecked can contribute to chronic disease. Brazil nuts are a natural source of selenium but when not consumed as part of a healthy diet, it can be found in therapeutic levels in our collagen powder.

Probiotics play an essential role in gut health by contributing to a healthy gut microbiome. It is becoming more evident that the right balance of friendly bacteria plays a critical role in immune health, allergies, healing and longevity. The gut is often referred to as the second brain and a super highway of information is constantly processing signals between the gut and brain axis, and feeding our body probiotics via quality food and supplements is vital for healthy ageing.
