Collagen Protein - Unflavoured
Please note: If you purchase pre-sale Myo-Inositol in the same order as your collagen they will be sent out together once Myo-Inositol is back in stock. They will not be sent out as seperate orders.
Collagen is the most abundant protein found in the body, making up about 1/3 of all protein. It forms the connective tissue for almost all of the structures in the body, including; muscles, tendons, skin, bones, blood vessels and digestive tract. It is essentially the glue that holds your entire body together. Unfortunately, collagen levels begin to decline in your mid 20's and unless you are eating a significant amount of gelatinous meat products and connective tissue every week, you will not be getting a whole lot of collagen in your diet!
Collagen supplementation may be beneficial, not only as you age, but also during pregnancy and lactation. Collagen turnover is incredibly high in pregnancy, both for maternal and fetal demands.
In addition to this, most women do not meet their protein requirements during pregnancy and postpartum. This is because daily protein requirements increase to as much as 70-120g during pregnancy. The increased protein requirements are needed for baby's growth and development as well as maternal milk production. Collagen is in an optimal source of protein to support these requirements during your prenatal period and beyond.

TESTIMONIALS FROM HEALH PROFESSIONALS
Karina Marschall
Women’s Naturopath
"I recommend collagen to just about all my clients heading in to pregnancy. It’s great at supporting skin elasticity and to support joints and ligaments that have to support all that extra growth. An extra bonus, collagen can also help rebuild, restore and heal after birth."
Emily Bohn
RN/RM/IBCLC
"Collagen supports the structural integrity of human tissue. With this is mind, it's easy to see why the body's demand for collagen is high during pregnancy and lactation. Optimal collagen intake supports the endometrium for fertility, helps the development and function of the placenta, helps to regulate blood pressure, blood sugar and can help in reducing swelling."
Emma Morris
Clinical Nutritionist
"Collagen powder is a great supplement for pregnant women and mothers because it contains an array of amino acids which help to satisfy hunger, control blood sugar, nourish skin and ligaments, and also help repair birth wounds. It also helps the circulatory system adapt in pregnancy! I recommend it to almost all of my pregnant clients and it is a must-have for all my postpartum mamas, too."
