I’m sure you’ve heard it all before.. but do you actually truly know why Marine Collagen\u00a0<\/strong>has suddenly become the IT-word on everyone’s lips in the last year or so? It almost feels like everyone jumped on the Collagen-wave overnight, but truth be told, it’s actually been available in supplement form for many, many years.<\/p>\n

I started consuming collagen daily back in 2015 and it’s one of the habits that I will never ever let go of, purely because of the health benefits I see and the positive impact it has on my skin.<\/p>\n

But,\u00a0<\/strong>be careful – there are lots of collagens on the market that claim to be something they’re not. It’s important to assess a brand and product in detail when you’re considering introducing a new ingestible supplement to your regime.<\/p>\n

Some of the things to look out for are;<\/p>\n

\n
• Sustainability:\u00a0<\/strong>The efforts of the brand\/product to lower their environmental footprint<\/li>\n
• Sourcing: <\/strong>Be mindful of where the collagen (fish) comes from, how it was raised, how it was fed, how it was caught. Make sure it’s been MSc approved and that it’s under strict management.<\/li>\n
• Ingredients:\u00a0<\/strong>What are the added extra ingredients in the product to make the marine collagen more bioavailable in your body.<\/li>\n
• Potency:\u00a0<\/strong>How much collagen is in the product per serving?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  All of the above should play a key role in your decision-making when deciding on which Marine Collagen is best for you.<\/p>\n

  What is Marine Collagen, what does it do & why should I take it?<\/h2>\n

  Collagen is the most abundant protein in our body, but our bodies produce less and less of it with each passing year. Since most of us don\u2019t get enough collagen through our diets, it can be beneficial to supplement with Marine Collagen.<\/p>\n

  Marine Collagen is derived entirely from fish collagen, either fish skin or scales. Marine collagen peptides are comprised of two types of collagen, types I & III. There are over forty different types of collagen throughout the body that vary in their composition and function, but Type 1 collagen is the most abundant collagen in our body. Because Marine Collagen has superior bioavailability it is absorbed up to 1.5 times more efficiently than other types of collagen, making it one of the best and effective types.<\/p>\n

  I think we are all, as a society and world, beginning to recognise the link and true effect between healthy skin and nutrition. It means, it really does matter in the long run what we choose to feed our bodies and how it’s reflected in our skin, particularly our facial skin as it’s a lot more sensitive and exposed to free radicals, sun, pollution and wear & tear from simply ageing.<\/p>\n

  Now, there’s nothing wrong with ageing – we all do – but I think we can agree on that we’d all love to age gracefully and feel good about ourselves and the skin that we’re in.<\/p>\n

  So if you are someone who chooses to incorporate an abundance of leafy greens, fresh fruit & vegetables and lots of water every single day, you’re already on such a good road for your overall health AND your skin health. Now, add a daily dose of Marine Collagen to the mix if you’d like better skin health along with healthier hair & nails, too, and you’re well on your way to setting your beauty routine up for success.<\/p>\n

  Because beauty really is so much more than what we choose to put ON our skin, it’s about how we feed our microbiome (gut) with the right nutrient so that our cell-turnover (every 30 days) reveals more luminous, glowy and plump skin.<\/p>\n

    Isagenix Collagen Elixir:<\/h2>\n

    I’ve been testing out this beautiful and newly launched Collagen Elixir from <\/a>Isagenix\u00a0<\/strong>for the last 30 days, after having long and in-depth conversations about everything from the vision & creation of this product coming to life, to understanding how the marine collagen is sourced, the product is bottled, the low impact it has on the planet and much more.
    \nI was so impressed with the lengths Isagenix\u00a0<\/strong>has gone to creating this product with so much thought & care and wanted to share the experience with you.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    This is why Isagenix Collagen Elixir<\/a> is different to what’s currently on the market and why I chose to partner with them for the launch:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    1.\u00a0<\/strong>Environmentally Sustainable:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Isagenix’s marine collagen is both ethically and sustainably sourced from the beautifully blue ice waters of the Scandinavian Sea, following strict environmentally friendly practices that help support marine diversity. It is manufactured in a Marine Stewardship Council certified carbon neutral facility. This certification guarantees the product has met a science-based set of standards that care for the ecosystems our wild fish are part of and handled with care throughout the entire supply chain.<\/p>\n

    Additionally, with 100% recyclable packaging, making the marine Collagen Elixir fully sustainable from sourcing through to disposal.<\/p>\n

    2. Key Botanical for Synergistic Effect:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Marine collagen is mostly used in cosmetic products because its collagen profile aligns closely with the collagen profile seen in humans, making it a great match to nourish your skin. But Isagenix hasn’t just used marine collagen. The key botanical ingredients included in the ‘daily shot of Collagen’ also serve a special purpose. These ingredients include; Goji Berries, Aloe Vera, Acerola Berry, Chamomile, Vitamin C & Zinc.<\/p>\n

    3. Quality Sealed & Preserved:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Each bottle is sealed in just 0.15 seconds to prevent the product from losing its efficacy from oxidisation caused by a gas exchange. By sealing in the freshness and preventing any gas exchange, Collagen Elixir maintains its premium quality without the need of any preservatives.<\/p>\n

    4. Collagen at The Forefront:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Every bottle of Collagen Elixir contains a total of 5g Synchronised Marine Collagen with Double Nutri Technology to assist with nutrient absorption.<\/p>\n

    … and, don’t worry\u00a0<\/strong>– it tastes like a fruit-cocktail, nothing like fish and with no fishy aftertaste.<\/p>\n
