Description

Have you wondered if collagen could be helpful for your rashes and skin health? I’ve been asked if collagen is good for eczema or psoriasis more times than I can count. Recently I got a ton of requests from our community about collagen so I figured it was time to do a deep dive into the pros and cons of using collagen. To be fair, collagen isn’t good for everyone (and I talk more about that in this article). But for many, they might find that it could give an extra boost to their health AND skin on their journey. I personally take collagen daily and recommend it to clients. So here are my thoughts on all things collagen! In this episode: What is collagen + where is it found naturally in food? Do vegan or plant-based sources of collagen exist? Topical steroids + collagen production in your body Thoughts on topical collagen for thinned skin How to add collagen to your daily diet What to look for when buying a collagen supplement Who should avoid collagen supplements Quotes: There’s no such thing as vegan collagen, nor plant-based sources of collagen because it’s only made in animals + fish. It’s still unclear if collagen supplements can help skin that’s been thinned from topical steroid use.
