Each of the seven ingredients in Collagen Care+ was hand chosen to provide that perfect boost to your collagen routine.
1. Vitamin C
Vitamin C plays an important role in the body’s production of Collagen Types 1 and 3 (3). Vitamin C is also integral to the overall growth and repair of cells, which can help your skin heal and improve from anything holding back its glow (4). Your cartilage, bones, and teeth rely on vitamin C for healthy maintenance, and supplementing with this vitamin can help ease joint inflammation and pain (5).
2. Zinc
Zinc is another power player in collagen production. It’s vital to protecting your body’s collagen supply and keeping it healthy (6). Zinc is known to accelerate healing, especially for your skin—about 5% of your body’s zinc supply is in your skin alone (7)! It’s a great way to give your skin a little extra love.
3. Vitamin A
Vitamin A stimulates collagen production in aging skin, which helps enhance the skin benefits you see when taking collagen (8). If you’re a skincare fan, you might already know that vitamin A is a cornerstone ingredient for increasing cell turnover to keep your skin happy and healthy. It’s been linked to improved appearance of wrinkles, decreased acne, reduced hyperpigmentation, and decreased psoriasis symptoms (9).
4. Vitamin B7
Vitamin B7 is also known as biotin, an ingredient known for its presence in hair, skin, and nail supplements across the beauty market. Biotin is famous for good reason: It can help improve your hair and nail health, particularly if you have a biotin deficiency (10). If you’re taking collagen for its benefits on hair and nail strength, vitamin B7 is a great way to boost your results.
5. Magnesium
Magnesium is not only vital to your body’s collagen production…it’s vital for over 300 enzyme systems in the body—from muscle and nerve function to blood glucose control to blood pressure regulation and more (11, 12).
On top of this, magnesium can also boost many of the effects we associate with a daily collagen routine. It may help improve your exercise performance, boost your mood, and soothe inflammation for fewer aches and pains throughout the day (13, 14, 15).
6. Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic acid is another collagen-producing superhero, but much like collagen itself, our body’s level of hyaluronic acid shrinks as we age (16). Supplementing with hyaluronic acid can help make up for the supply that you’ve lost. Hyaluronic acid is also a powerful skin-boosting ingredient in its own right, with the ability to soften fine lines and plump the skin for a more youthful radiance (17).
7. Boron Citrate
If you’re mainly taking collagen for its bone health benefits, then you’ll love boron citrate…
This mineral plays a crucial part in the creation of collagen that exists in your bones, connective tissues, and cartilage (18).
Supplementing with boron citrate can help increase your body’s base supply, which can help boost the collagen cells that make your bones stronger and healthier. It could also help play a role in easing joint pain, boosting brain function, and more. Boron even helps extend the half-life of vitamin D, making your bones even stronger (19)!
