Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body, and, of course, a primary component of gorgeous, glowing skin.  Today on the podcast, I’m doing a quick and thorough examination of collagen. You’re going to learn about what it is, the surprising reasons it matters, and what breaks it down.  Then, of course, I’m telling you exactly what you should and shouldn’t be eating right now to support your body’s natural collagen production. I’m sharing the seven best foods for it, and the absolute worst one.  In just 20 minutes, you’ll walk away empowered to eat your way to clear, firm, and beautiful skin.  Full show notes: jjvirgin.com/collagenboost Watch the FULL VIDEO on my YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/jjvirginvideos Read my book, Sugar Impact Diet: https://store.jjvirgin.com/collections/books/products/sugar-impact-diet-paperback-book Learn how foods cause leaky gut in The Virgin Diet: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/the-virgin-diet-paperback Subscribe to my podcast: http://subscribetojj.com Reignite WellnessTM Sparkling C Powder: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/sparkling-c-fizz?_pos=1&_sid=641e49ef8&_ss=r&variant=39563575689291 Suja Lemon Love: https://amzn.to/46NLbXR Get my Eat Protein First Smoothie Cookbook: https://jjvirgin.com/smoothie Designs for Health Amino Acid Synergy: https://amzn.to/43T9wsK Reignite WellnessTM Paleo-Inspired All-In-One Shakes:  https://store.jjvirgin.com/collections/shakes Reignite WellnessTM Daily Essentials Multi + Omega: https://store.jjvirgin.com/collections/supplements/products/daily-essentials-multi-omegas Reignite WellnessTM Omega Plus: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/omega-plus Butcherbox grass-fed & grass-finished beef: http://butcherbox.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=2&aff_id=1330 Vital Choice Wild-Caught Seafood, Fish, and Salmon: https://vitalchoice.sjv.io/daKYGy Reignite WellnessTM Collagen Peptides Powder: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/all-systems-glow-collagen Study: International Journal of Dermatology: Effects of hydrolyzed collagen supplementation on skin aging: A systematic review and meta-analysis: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33742704/ Fresh Pressed Olive Oil Club:  https://www.freshpressedoliveoiltrk.com/6ZR9ZK/6JHXF/ Video: For Great Skin - Here's What To Eat, When & Why!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYBfEfutjXY
