Beauty and Stress Relief from Within: Collagen + CBG
Collagen is a protein substance found in connective tissue (skin, ligaments, bones, tendons, muscles, blood vessels, and organs). It is the most abundant protein in the human body.
Natural collagen levels in our bodies begin to decline in our 20s with a 40-50% reduction of all collagen by the age of 40. This reduction is experienced in our skin, hair, nails, joints, muscles, connective tissue and more.
Collagen Levels by Age
There are 28 different types of collagen:
Type I: Most abundant collagen type, making up 90% of the collagen in the human body. Considered best for the skin, hair growth and nails.
Type II: Joint health. Major collagen in cartilage. Shorter and more elastic than Type I.
Type III: Strengths the elasticity of the skin. Provides structure & support to connective tissue. Supports skin, blood vessels, intestines, uterus.
Type IV: Reverses dark and light spots in skin. Improves cell adhesion & migration. Promotes wound healing.
Type V: Multi-collagen, found in eyes & supports vision
No matter the form or type of collagen, it can’t be absorbed by the body in its whole form. This means collagen proteins must be broken down or hydrolyzed into smaller peptides or amino acids that can be absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. High-quality, effective collagen should contain at least Type I, Type II, Type III and Type IV. Most over-the-counter collagen only contains Type II. While others use only Type I and Type III.

CBG is harvested when the hemp plant first flowers. This youthful manifestation and powerful minor cannabinoid is the most difficult to find due to the small quantity naturally produced, the short growing window, and the significant biomass required to extract it. It very difficult to find clean, high-quality CBG. The Entourage Effect for best results is achieved when CBG is used in conjunction with mature CBD hemp flower extract.
