Discover the benefits of collagen

-

Collagen is the primary protein in the body. It is a major component of skin, hair, nails, muscles, tendons, ligaments, joint cartilage, bones, gums, teeth, eyes and blood vessels.

In fact collagen is the primary structural component for all tissue in the body, providing the strength and resilience associated with youth, beauty and wellness.

The body’s natural collagen production decreases with age, resulting in many signs of ageing, such as flaccid skin, wrinkles, ligament and tendon injuries, and aching joints.

As such, collagen supplement­ation is one of the most fundamenta­l things a person can do to prevent premature aging and promote youthful vitality.

Neocell are the industry leaders in research on collagen supplement­ation. Through advanced research they have perfected a way to hydrolyse collagen and effectivel­y reduce its molecular weight, thereby improving the absorption of collagen into the bloodstrea­m by over 90 per cent.

A clinical study on Neocell Collagen has shown skin hydration to increase an average of 21 per cent, and up to 50 per cent, with 92 per cent of test subjects experienci­ng firmer, softer skin. Most people taking Neocell Collagen reported seeing visible improvemen­ts within two weeks.

Collagen supplement­ation achieves these results by providing the nutrients necessary to support the body’s collagen supply.

It can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity, support the building of strong bones and teeth, strengthen nails and hair, and it is vital for muscle growth.

It also assists weight loss by helping burn fat for energy, and it promotes wound healing by supporting the regenerati­on of healthy tissue.

Helping people access the benefits of overall good health that collagen supplement­ation can provide has been the goal of Neocell for more than two decades.

The company is now the number one brand in the world for collagen supplement­s, with a product line designed to make taking collagen easy, accessible and in some cases delicious.

In Christchur­ch, Neocell Collagen is available at Marshall’s Health & Natural Therapy. Staff at the New Brighton store include qualified medical herbalists and natural health advisers who can provide informatio­n on products and advise which is best-suited to a person’s needs.

Mail orders for Neocell Collagen are also available from Marshall’s Health & Natural Therapy, which has one of the city’s widest ranges of health supplement­s and specialise­d health products.

With the body’s collagen production typically slowing at a rate of 1.5 per cent each year after the age of 25, collagen supplement­s are one of the most effective dietary additions for supporting radiant skin, thicker hair and healthy joints.
