FUNCTIONS
Collagen Formula is a specific combination of vitamin C with amino acids to support natural collagen production, which helps skin elasticity and hydration.
DESCRIPTION
Collagen Formula main objective is to support natural collagen production, collagen being one of the key proteins, helping skin maintain its strength and elasticity. It is composed of a variety of amino acids, among them lysine and proline. Although the body can produce its own proline, lysine is an essential amino acid that human body cannot synthesize. The process by which lysine and proline are transformed into collagen requires Vitamin C. When Vitamin C is added to the skin cells that make collagen, total collagen production is increased.
SUGGESTED USE
3 to 5 capsules per day, in divided doses, with meals. For ages 12 and up. For best and longest-lasting results, use Collagen Formula for at least 3 months.
SIDE EFFECTS
No adverse effects have been reported.
STORAGE

How do supplements work?
Supplements are taken to complete your diet. At Functionalab, we prioritize good diet, as a good diet is the foundation of health, but supplements still play an important role. The truth is that only about 40% of Americans eat their five servings of fruits and vegetables a day and the typical diet is low in nutrient-rich whole grains and essential fats like omega-3 fats. Our hectic life style leads us to eat processed foods and fast foods that are typically high in energy but low in nutrients.
