It literally holds the body together, the name collagen comes from the Greek word (kólla), meaning glue. Although we create our own collagen, production decreases with age resulting in loss of skin elasticity and bone density. Other factors like smoking, poor diet, sun exposure and illness can reduce collagen production within the body.
Generations before us, got ample levels of collagen from bone broths, sweet eaters would still get collagen through gelatine but with the decrease of homemade meals and the exclusion of bones from store bought meat; a supplement may be required.
