If you are experiencing issues with your hair …. you are not alone. Hair issues - in both men and women - are really common.
This can mean anything from hair that is thin, brittle and weak… to hair loss.
If you’ve got hair that is thin, weak, brittle and breaking before it gets long, then Hydrolyzed Collagen just may be the answer.
Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body and helps make up tendons, ligaments and your skin. In relation to hair, collagen is vital for the health of follicles and health of the dermis of the scalp.
Specifically, hair is made up primarily of a protein called Keratin and the main building blocks of Keratin are also found in Collagen.
So, when you take regular supplementation of Collagen, your body has a consistent source of the amino acids hydroxyproline, glycine and proline. With supplementation, your body releases the amino acids into your blood stream to maintain healthy hair and skin.
However, if your body is deficient in these amino acids, it will prioritise the use of those amino acids in the maintenance of skin, bones or cartilage – BEFORE your hair, resulting in hair that lacks thickness and strength. Your skin will also experience reduced elasticity and look dull.
That’s why brittle, weak hair is common in people who:
The Well Being Hydrolysed Collagen is made in Australia and is hydrolysed and water soluble for optimal absorption. It is different to every other collagen supplement in 3 ways:
The Well Being Hydrolyzed Collagen comes in a powder form in a range of flavours. It can be mixed easily with a range of liquids – and each dose = 16g of hydrolysed collagen. This is a proper therapeutic dose. Many other collagen capsules and tablets (because of their size) don’t provide a therapeutic dose. One dose of Wellbeing Collagen = 10-16 capsules of other brands.
The Well Being Hydrolyzed Collagen contains a pre-biotic fibre called Inulin which optimizes gut health, nourishes beneficial gut bacteria and the long-term absorption of Collagen from your intestine.
The Well Being Hydrolyzed Collagen is particularly high in Glycine, the major pre-cursor to Serotonin – required for mental wellbeing. The powder has no added sugar.
The key to taking an oral Collagen supplement is to be consistent – take it regularly for 3-4 months minimum – to make sure your body has time to utilize the collagen over other physiological needs, and THEN to give you time to grow stronger hair. The follicular cycle is around 3 months long, so it takes time.
The Well Being Hydrolyzed Collagen formula in $44.95 per 400g can and will last around a month with daily use.
If you’ve experienced hair loss, it might help to know you’re certainly not alone.
But your hair is important, and not just a cosmetic issue. It very likely forms a major part of your physical identity and losing it can be devastating.
Hair loss symptoms can include the Gradual thinning of hair on the top of the head, Circular or bald patches, sudden loss of hair or loss of hair down the mid-line of the scalp, especially in women.
The most common type of alopecia is caused by a combination of genetic and hormonal factors via a hormone called DHT, which causes miniaturisation of the hair follicles and shortening of the growth phase of hair. This causes hair loss over time.
For Men, oral supplementation with Saw Palmetto can definitely help. Saw Palmetto is a shrublike palm native to the southeastern United States.
Oral Saw Palmetto inhibits 5-α reductase and the production of DHT around the body. As a result, it can be effective at preventing hair loss but also has the added benefit of improving prostate health as DHT is the hormone responsible for prostate enlargement over time.
Natures Sunshine Saw Palmetto is an easy-to-take, once per day capsule. The capsule is easy to swallow and Dairy and Gluten free.
