A fit, radiant woman poolside in warm sunlight — collagen, strong joints, and structural vitality

Chapter 7

Collagen

The Architecture of Youth

Collagen isn't a beauty supplement — it's structural medicine. It's the architecture of your skin, joints, tendons, ligaments, bones, and blood vessels, and it starts declining after 25. Everyday stressors — poor sleep, high sugar, UV exposure, chronic inflammation — quietly accelerate that breakdown. Different collagen types support different structures; combining them gives the most complete protocol.
