Collagen with Rooibos 158g

When is collagen supplementation non-negotiable?

• By the mid-30s to early 40s, collagen loss becomes more noticeable—skin elasticity decreases, hair may thin and joints might ache. This is a key time to start supplementing.
• By the late 40s to 50s, collagen levels have dropped significantly (around 25-30% less than in youth), and the effects on skin, joints and bones become more pronounced.
• After menopause (for women), collagen declines even faster—up to 30% lost in the first 5 years post-menopause due to estrogen loss.
• By the 60s and beyond, collagen production is very low, making supplementation almost essential for maintaining joint mobility, skin health and bone strength.
• Introducing Annique Rooibos and Collagen drink, made with fermented Rooibos extract and pure hydrolysed collagen.

What is Collagen?

Collagen is a protein found abundantly in the human body, providing structure to skin, bones, joints and connective tissue.

What is Hydrolysed Collagen?

Hydrolysed collagen, also known as collagen peptides, is a form of collagen that has been broken down into smaller, easily digestible peptides. This process makes it more bioavailable, meaning it can be absorbed efficiently by the body.

BENEFITS:

Skin Health and Anti-Ageing

• Improves skin elasticity and hydration, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
• Supports the skin’s structure by promoting the production of natural collagen and elastin.
• Provides amino acids (glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline) essential for skin repair and regeneration.

Joint and Bone Health

• Strengthens cartilage and reduces joint pain by stimulating cartilage regeneration.
• Helps manage symptoms of osteoarthritis by improving joint mobility and reducing stiffness.
• Supports bone density and strength by contributing to the organic matrix of bones.

Hair and Nail Strength

• Promotes stronger, shinier hair by supporting the hair follicle structure.
• Reduces nail brittleness and promotes faster nail growth.

Gut Health

• A healthy gut is vital for digestion, immunity, mood, and skin health. It helps absorb nutrients, supports 70% of your immune system and produces serotonin for mood balance. Poor gut health leads to bloating, inflammation and hormonal imbalances. A happy gut means a healthier you!
• Collagen strengthens the gut lining by providing glycine, which supports intestinal health and may reduce symptoms of leaky gut syndrome.
• Collagen supports digestion by maintaining the structural integrity of the gut lining.

Muscle Mass and Recovery

• Enhances muscle repair and growth when paired with resistance training by supplying amino acids that are key for muscle protein synthesis.
• Reduces recovery time and soreness after exercise by supporting connective tissue repair.

Overall Wellness

• Improves sleep quality, as glycine in collagen has calming properties that support restful sleep.
• Enhances metabolic health by promoting lean body mass and reducing fat mass over time.
