A collagen supplement, hailed as the “holy grail” by shoppers, is receiving high praise for its benefits to skin and hair, as well as alleviating joint pain. Supplements are designed to enhance what our bodies lack in production – this includes certain hormones, vitamins and minerals typically derived from food.
As natural collagen production in the body begins to decrease from around 25 years of age, many individuals seek ways to incorporate collagen into their daily regimen. The Absolute Collagen Marine Liquid Collagen Supplement Drink can be purchased online, with subscription prices commencing at £27.99.
First-time subscribers will receive a complimentary gift valued at £48. Once consumed, the liquid marine collagen is absorbed and distributed to the deep layers of the skin (dermis).
According to the brand, this “helps stimulate and increase your body’s own natural collagen production, helping to improve skin rejuvenation, glowing skin, thicker hair and stronger nails.”
For optimal results, one sachet is recommended daily. Each 10ml serving provides 8000mg of “high-quality marine collagen peptides,” reports the Mirror.
It can be taken at home or on-the-go, and you can consume your daily dose directly from the easy-rip sachet, or blend it into food and drinks. The Absolute Collagen Marine Liquid Collagen Supplement is comprised of 8000mg of superior marine collagen and 60mg of vitamin C per 10ml sachet, with the added benefits of being gluten-free, lactose-free, and devoid of artificial additives.
Containing only 36 calories and 7.7 grams of protein, this product has garnered glowing reviews from customers. According to Absolute Collagen, clinical trials have demonstrated that this supplement can improve fine lines, wrinkles, and skin evenness, enhance skin elasticity, reduce hair damage, and more.
With an impressive 4.9-star rating and over 2,000 five-star reviews, the product has been hailed as the “holy grail” by some customers, with a few even claiming to have replaced Botox with this supplement.
Among the reviews, one person wrote: “I am now five months into my AC journey and I have to say that I’ve seen lots of improvements. My skin is clearer, eyes brighter and nails are so strong and grow so quickly! It’s a game-changer……and a journey I will have to continue!”
Another reviewer wrote: “Results are amazing! I have been taking for about 2 years now. The results I have seen have been amazing. Better skin and hair but the biggest for me is my joints.
“I have suffered with arthritis since a teenager in my feet knees and hands. Today I can walk for hours without pain. It really is down to this as I have changed nothing else! I believe that it takes longer than 3 months for some people so you have to stick with it for a while. Most people spend more on a coffee everyday is the way I looked at it!”
A third shared their experience and wrote: “Literally a game changer, consistency is key. I’ve taken this for around 6 months now, after trying out many others before this has been the one to show me the best results and has helped with not only my skin, hair and nails but has also eased my joint pain and I just feel so much better taking them. I have tried all the flavours but I think the orange and mandarin is my favourite, would highly recommend.”
Not everyone was as satisfied with the outcomes, however. One person expressed disappointment, saying: “Subscribed for six months, used daily. Stopped 6 months ago and can honestly say it didn’t work for me.”
Another added: “I’ve been taking it for over six months and I don’t see any difference..” A third shopper said: “Not for everyone I suppose! I have used this product for a few months now, on a daily basis and in all honesty not seen anything change in my skin, nails or hair.”
