The Queen of Collagen

 What is collagen?

Collagen is the most abundant protein in humans (and makes up most of the protein in human skin. It is also found in the bones, muscles, blood vessels, cartilage and tendons. At the age of 25 however collagen production slows and by the age of 50, collagen levels are typically around 50% less compared to previous levels.

Healthy collagen levels contribute to good joint health, bone health, skin health, cardiovascular health and vessel health. During the first five years of menopause women experience a massive reduction in their collagen with over 30% being lost. Collagen decline results in wrinkles, thinning bones, weak joints, thinning hair, brittle nails, leaky gut and can negatively impact almost every aspect of human health.

Dr Ward on Collagen

"In the last 10 years the world of collagen has exploded. Collagen creams, collagen masks, collagen smoothies, collagen creamers, collagen bombs, collagen everything. Global interest in collagen has skyrocketed. But not many people really understand what it does or its importance.

I have devoted my professional career to the science and understanding of ageing and so writing a book about collagen seemed apt and needed.

The truth is that collagen is a molecule that has full body, head to toe potential benefit for us all. And if we learn a little more about it and how it works for us, how it can be protected and how it can be replenished we all stand to benefit enormously, today and in our future."
