Collagen has amazing healing abilities. Not only is collagen is the most abundant protein found in our bodies- in our muscles, tendons, cartilage, bones and skin. But also, a collagen supplement helps to increase your own body’s collagen level and stimulates the production of internal collagen at a would site (i.e. surgery site). This makes collagen supplementation ab excellent option to support your post-surgery journey.
More importantly, collagen has many positive effects in our digestive tract.
We all know that the healthier our digestive tract the easier we heal, after all, over 70% of our immune system is located in our gut.
Studies show that regular use of bovine collagen can help reduce heartburn, ulcers and can help heal an IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) or a leaky gut syndrome type of digestive problems.
How does collagen do this?
Collagen peptides aid in digestion by holding water in the intestine and helps food move along the GI tract easily. Daily collagen intake can also help heal the gut lining as well. Our gut lining can be affected by food intolerances, processed foods, sugar, medication (such as antibiotics, antacids, hormones) and smoking.
The healthier your gut, the healthier your immune system. We need a strong and robust immune system to heal from a surgery, from an intense workout or from any chronic past stresses.
