From plump, hydrated skin, to strong and healthy joints, it’s collagen that’s holding us all together - literally! Whether you’re working to maintain that youthful glow or stay as fit and agile as you were in your younger years, a collagen boost can go a long way.
As the body’s most important structural protein, collagen acts as the glue that strengthens the connectivity of our tissues, making sure our tendons, skin, bones, and more, stay as healthy, strong, and youthful as possible.
As we get older and greyer, however, our collagen production naturally drops, meaning that our skin begins to wrinkle and sag, our bones get weaker, and our joints are no longer as stretchy and agile as they once were when we were cartwheeling across the school playground.
Strands of collagen wind into helixes which work to restore, rebuild, and repair connective tissues throughout the entire body. As the most common protein in our bodies, collagen boasts a whole variety of purposes, supporting the health and wellness of many areas.
More specifically, collagen is known to:
Whilst collagen is essential in quite literally every area of our bodies, those enjoying the benefits of collagen boosters and supplements most commonly rely on collagen for anti-ageing and post-workout-related reasons.
Did you know that our natural collagen production begins to decrease by around 1% every year after we reach 25? Oh, and this process only gets quicker when we hit the big 4 0, by the way. So it’s no wonder collagen boosters are flying off the shelves so people can hold on tight to that youthful glow. Not only does collagen improve the skin’s elasticity, but it also ensures that your dermal layer remains plump and hydrated, adding volume to the skin and reducing the harshness of your wrinkles.
During a workout, many of the proteins within our bodies will break down, but collagen can help with regeneration. High in amino acids, collagen supports your body by repairing these proteins, ultimately helping you build muscle. Not only this, but if any of your muscles or tissues are damaged during a workout, a healthy supply of collagen will aid in speeding up your recovery time. As a structural protein, collagen is responsible for regenerating damaged muscle fibres by producing connective scar tissue in order to heal any tears or ruptures.
So if you find pleasure in getting ID’d at the bar or tend to push it maybe a bit too hard in the gym, we’re sure you’re already aware of just how good collagen is for the body. But have you ever considered the benefits of a collagen supplement?
If you’ve not already noticed, collagen is an extremely valuable protein. So when it comes to enjoying the benefits of a collagen supplement, you want to make sure you’re taking the most efficient and effective vitamins possible.
Diso’s dissolvable strips have been designed by experts with innovative Absorbatec technology to make sure that you get the most out of your daily supplements. Our vitamins are absorbed into the bloodstream far quicker than tablets or capsules, maximising your body’s intake of their nutritional properties. Packed into compact tins, our Diso Strips can be taken on the go, at any point in your day - whether it’s on your way home from an intense gym sesh or after staring a little too long at those newly formed forehead creases.
Here at Diso, we’re proud of keeping our line of supplements inclusive, plant-based and vegan, so that everyone gets to enjoy their zesty flavours and unbelievable health and wellness benefits. Our Diso Collagen Supplement is stacked full of vitamin C in order to stimulate the body’s natural production of collagen. But that’s not all, our plant-based collagen supplements also include grape seed and melon extract to further boost the production of collagen.
As with any vitamin supplement, you shouldn’t expect to see results overnight. We encourage customers to commit to integrating Diso into their daily routine in order to experience the benefits of our dissolvable strips and liquid vitamins over time.
You should allow several weeks to a few months for our collagen supplements to start taking effect. Skinax, one of the key natural ingredients in our collagen supplements, tends to take around eight weeks to leave clear results in women between 40 and 70. Younger people are likely to benefit from the anti-ageing properties of collagen supplements sooner, whereas it may take longer for older users to experience the benefits, given their body’s smaller natural collagen supply.
We recommend taking one Diso Collagen booster per day to garner the most consistent and effective results. As much as it may be tempting to pop one or two more in for that extra burst of tangy flavour, just make sure you don’t cut your supply short for the back end of the month!
Hopefully, our helpful little guide has given you a clearer understanding of the many benefits of a collagen supplement.
