No matter how well you plan your meals and track what you’re eating, it can be difficult to get enough protein just through a healthy diet. Even if you are getting all the protein you need, let’s be honest, you probably are getting a bit tired of eating that much chicken, turkey, tuna, egg whites, and lean beef. A great alternative is to add in Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides to your diet! If you’re new to the world of collagen, here are the 5 Top Benefits of Collagen Peptides!

WHAT IS COLLAGEN?

Collagen is the most plentiful protein in our bodies. We need collagen for a lot of things like keeping our skin and joints strong. It makes up approximately 33% of the total protein in your body. It also accounts for roughly 75% of the dry weight of your skin.

Collagen molecules are too large to be absorbed through the skin, so that means that most cosmetics that claim to increase collagen levels actully don’t. Collagen is an essential protein that plays an important vital role in your health as well as how you look.

WHY DO WE NEED COLLAGEN?

As you age, your body produces less and lower-quality collagen. Our modern diets lack the collagen that was once abundant in foods. If we can get collagen from what we eat, our body can’t replenish what’s missing.

Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides are collagen molecules that are small enough to get quickly absorbed and used by our body. This is the reason people see improvements in how they look, feel and move after using Vital Proteins Collagen consistently.

Adding a scoop of Collagen Peptides to food or beverages gives you the boost you need to support healthy hair, skin, nails, bone and joint health, muscle recovery, and more.

WHAT ARE IN VITAL PROTEINS COLLAGEN PEPTIDES?

Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides have very few calories since it’s straight up protein and with nothing else added. There is no flavor, so you can mix it with anything, and it has no impact on your blood sugar. They are gluten, dairy, and sugar-free, Whole30 Approved as well as Paleo & keto friendly!

 

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides can improve your hair, skin, nails, joints and ligaments, and tendon health. One of the most well-known benefits of collagen is its ability to promote glowing, vibrant skin. It improves the elasticity of your skin, which helps you look more youthful and healthy.

If you’re wondering if you can take collagen peptides while keto, you absolutely can! Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides are only 10 grams of pure protein, no carbs, and only 35 calories.

 

HOW I USE VITAL PROTEINS COLLAGEN PEPTIDES

Finally tried @dintaifungusa and wow! So good! Her Finally tried @dintaifungusa and wow! So good! Here’s what we ordered:

🌟Cucumber Salad - a bright and light starter I’d love to make these at home (and @glucosegoddess would be proud!)
🌟String Beans with Garlic - I would have eaten 3 more orders of this had they not been $16/each. I’ve already been searching for copy cat recipes because they are just SO DAMN GOOD
🌟Kurobuta Pork Xiao Long Bao - these are their classic soup dumpling and very yummy and chewy and I loved the soy-vinegar sauce pairing with it
🌟 Sticky Rice & Kurobuta Pork Shao Mai - these were recommended in a TikTok video but they weren’t my favorite. The rice plus the dough was just too much IMO
🌟 Chicken Spicy Wontons - these were very good! I would drink the bowl of sauce if no one was watching…
🌟 Chocolate & Mochi Xiao Long Bao - wow, what a great to end the meal! We don’t order dessert often but this really good. Love the melty creamy chocolate!

Can’t wait to go back! Have you been? You’ve got to try it!
I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board tog I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board together until late January because there it’s so much buzz around the new year and goal setting around the start of the new year…but how about waiting until the buzz around it starts to fade? I’ve been committed since 12/31/2022 but if you need some fresh inspiration for 2023…here you go!

Last year I made a digital vision board in Canva with about 8 vague photos and I never looked at it. This year, I got a huge poster board and nearly 100 very specific images of the things I want. VERY specific. In the short 3 weeks having this propped up in my office and seeing it each day, I’m already seeing the needle moving on these items! 

Have you created a vision board or set goals for 2023? What doe is mean to you? How are you achieving your goals this year? #goalsetting #visionboard
