How does this collagen product work?
Collagen is the main building block protein that forms your bones, skin, hair, muscles, tendons, and ligaments
Collagen production reduces by 1% every year from 21 onwards. This leads to loss of skin elasticity, which causes wrinkles, dry, thinning and sagging skin.
Loss of collagen also contributes to hair loss, slow hair growth and brittle hair. It can lead to aching joints and slow recovery post injury.
The collagen in 'Dr V Collagen Boost' is broken down into peptides in the gut then absorbed into the blood stream. These peptides are recognised by fibroblasts as collagen fragments which ‘tricks’ fibroblasts to produce more collagen in response to the 'pretend' collagen breakdown.
More About Collagen
Collagen is the most abundant component of the extracellular matrix and is the key protein to give skin its structure. It is surrounded by water to support smooth, firm skin.
Collagen looks like a rope, it has 3 chains wrapped around each other forming a triple helix. This gives incredible tensile strength to the skin.
Clinical studies show age related reduction in collagen synthesis can be reversed by oral administration of specific bioactive collagen peptides.
Collagen fibres are synthesized primarily by the fibroblasts in the deeper layers of the skin. This is why replacement must happen orally.
Who is this product for?
For men & women, all skin types (dry/oily/sensitive) & persons 21 years and over (when collagen starts to decrease).
If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have a serious medical condition or are under medical supervision, please consult with your doctor before taking this product.
Common FAQs
1. Can you take Collagen Boost if pregnant or have other medical conditions?
If you are pregnant or have a serious medical condition, please consult with your doctor before taking this product.
PREGNANCY: It is considered safe. The product does not contain shellfish and has added iron.
DIABETICS: The product has low sugar & carbohydrates, no fats or cholesterol.
OTHER CONDITIONS: The product has no impact on hormone levels.
2. What is the difference between topical application and oral consumption of collagen?
Orally consumed collagen improves collagen uptake in the dermis. Collagen topically applied doesn’t penetrate the epidermis as the molecule is too large. It just acts as a moisturiser in this setting.
3a. Can I take other multi-vitamins & protein supplements?
Yes you can still take your normal vitamin and/or protein supplements with this product, unless you have been advised not to overconsume certain vitamins due to underlying health conditions (very rare).
3b. Can I take this product AM or PM?
Yes it can be consumed at any time.
4. What does this drink taste like?
It primarily tastes of a sweet blueberry flavour.
5a. How long will it take to see results?
Results will vary by person. They may start to be seen from 2 weeks onwards, or 1-3 months on average.
5b. Do you stop taking collagen after 3 months and what happens to the benefits?
The product is meant to be taken indefinitely (give or take periodic breaks), so there may be some reversal in benefits if stopped completely.
The 3 month program is intended to be the minimum initial duration to allow for benefits to be seen.
6. Is this product Halal?
Yes the product is halal as the collagen is derived from vegan sources and contains no animal products.
7. Is this product Keto-friendly / Fasting-friendly?
This product will not kick you out of ketosis as there is only 2.4g of total carbohydrates per serving, however it will break a fast (due to the 9 calories).
8. Is this product tested for heavy metals?
Yes the product is tested that heavy metal concentrations are below acceptable regulatory thresholds (lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury).

G
Store Owner
I am a trained Human Resource Professional with an MBA in Human Resource Management-Training and Development and have amassed fifteen (15) years corporate experience in that discipline.
I decided to embark on a new career path which led me to be involved in my family's Physiotherapy Clinic. During that period I became very aware of the multi-faceted world of wellness. I settled into the area of skin care and began immersing myself in the vast amounts of available knowledge. Some recommendations therein led me to experiment with my teenage daughter and myself as we both had skin challenges. I can say now that I am beginning to see the best skin of my life and regret not knowing about the regimen earlier.
I am the proud promoter of products and treatments which ensure minimum irritation but maximum efficacy.
The love of skincare has prompted the birth of the business Skincare Approved by G, to share and promote with those persons who believe in following a similar skincare philosophy.
Thank you for allowing me to take you on this journey.
Best regards,
G
