Frequently Asked Questions
What is collagen?
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body and is one of the major building blocks of bones, skin, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Often, our bodies cannot produce enough collagen on their own, this is made worse by the poor collagen content of modern diets. Collagen production declines in most people's bodies from the time they're in their late teens or early 20s and decreases about 1% a year. Therefore it is essential to supplement with our Bombshell Range of collagen from your 20โs. The benefits are endless.
How do I use collagen?
Our collagen powders are great for mixing into anything hot or cold. Things such as coffee, tea, soups, stews, gravies, or even baked goods and oatmeal. Give it and try and see which works best for you.
How many grams of collagen should I take per day?
We normally suggest 6-24 grams of collagen per day for best results (1-4 tablespoons or scoops). Start on a lower dose of 6mg/day and gradually increase as you deem fit. Do not exceed the 24grams/day.
