My Collagen Journey

My Collagen Journey

When I first started my collagen journey, two months ago, I was sceptical. I mean, there is that old saying, “if it feels too good to be true … it probably is”.

All I can say is, it is odd; I cannot pinpoint one overall improvement because so far, it’s a combination of many little changes. Something that also surprised me, is that I am actually feeling all of the changes collagen purports to improve, in some form or other.

Now that I am comfortably in my 40’s, it will take longer for me to see results and on average, it takes collagen 12 weeks to properly get into the system. I suppose in the first few weeks, it is just replenishing the collagen I have lost over the years. So far so good.

The differences so far feel major though. Fine lines are disappearing, deeper lines are thinning, my skin is better all round and my hair just looks amazing! The biggest difference for me is my energy, I have bags of it and my appetite is decreasing which means that I am finally losing weight, it’s kind of a knock-on effect. Because I have more energy I am moving more, my joints feel freer which means it’s easier to move and that means the weight is coming off quicker.

What I do know is that if I stop taking the collagen, I will definitely stop feeling the benefits, so this journey is going to be a long term one for me. Like I’ve already said, it’s hard to explain, I cannot put it down to one thing, it’s a combination of everything really. Until next month.
