Collagen is a protein made up of 19 different building blocks called amino acids. The key ones are proline, glycine, and hydroxyproline. These amino acids work together, along with nutrients like Vitamin C, zinc, copper, and manganese, to form strong, rope-like structures.
The collagen proteins provide structural integrity to your skin, bones, muscles, and connective tissues - essentially acting as the glue that holds your entire body together. A strong collagen structure helps your skin keep its hydration and elasticity in other words makes you look youthful and gives you a radiant glow.
