What is collagen and why do I need it?

Collagen is a type of protein found in the body. Our body makes Collagen by breaking down amino acids from protein in our food. Collagen is like the ‘super glue’ in our body - providing structure to our skin.  Collagen makes up to 90% of our connective tissue and bone and 70% of our skin. Collagen is formed by combining two amino acids -glycine and proline.  This process needs Vitamin C to work and is also helped by Iron, Zinc and Copper in your diet.  Our Motherhood Glow collagen provides 55% RDI* (recommended daily intake) of Vitamin C, 33% of Iron and 23% of Zinc plus copper all from wholefood sources to support collagen formation.

Most Collagen in our body is Type I which is found in skin, tendons, parts of bone and internal organs.  It's also found in hair, cartilage, bone marrow and lymph tissue.  Type I collagen helps our skin look firm and healthy and supports gut and joint health.  Type III Collagen works alongside Type I Collagen in skin, ligaments, blood vessels and joints. Type III Collagen helps to promote skin health and elasticity and decreases as we age.  Our Motherhood Glow Collagen contains bioactive hydrolysed collagen Type I and Type III collagen peptides to support healthy skin, hair, nails, joints and gut health.  

 

Why is collagen important during pregnancy?

Supports extra protein needed during pregnancy

Many women don't meet their protein needs during pregnancy.  During pregnancy protein needs increase from 46g up to 100g a day to support your baby's development and growth of your breast and uterine tissue.  Protein during pregnancy helps to regulate fluids in your body by producing elastin to assist your blood vessels to expand and contract with the changing fluid balance - this helps to maintain healthy blood pressure and reduce pregnancy swelling.  

Eating food high in amino acids needed to make collagen is important during pregnancy.  Glycine the amino acid that helps make collagen is a must - it helps build connective tissue, supports your expanding uterus and skin and helps develop the placenta.   It also helps reduce oxidative stress which is associated with pre-eclampsia.   Our Motherhood Glow Collagen provides 13g of protein per serve to support your increased protein needs with 17 essential and non-essential amino acids including glycine.  

 

Supports healthy skin and joint health during pregnancy

Skin stretches and expands a lot during pregnancy.  Collagen makes up 70% of your dermis (thickest layer of your skin) and contributes to the strength and elasticity of your skin.  To support skin stretching (and hopefully help prevent stretch marks!), research tells us that collagen can improve skin elasticity and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.  

In addition to stretching skin, pregnancy puts a lot of pressure on your ligaments, pelvic floor and joints. Collagen is the glue that makes up 90% of our connective tissue and Type I collagen can help alleviate joint aches and pain.  

 

Regulates stomach acid to improve digestion

Collagen helps heal the gut lining and promote healthy levels of stomach acid.  This helps prevent excess gastric juices which can lead to heartburn and reflux.  

 

Why is Collagen important postpartum?

Collagen is great for postpartum mums.  Collagen and protein are important postpartum to support tissue building and repair, wound healing, postpartum hair loss and healthy glowing skin.  Breastfeeding mamas also need extra protein daily to help promote a healthy milk supply.  In Traditional Chinese medicine bone broth has been used for thousands of years to support healing and recovery for postpartum mamas due to the essential and non-essential amino acids and nutrients which support collagen production, healing and repair.  Our Motherhood Glow Collagen is a ‘supercharged’ modern version of traditional bone broth to help new mums with tissue building and repair, healthy hair, skin and nails plus provide essential nutrients from wholefood sources. 

 

Supports healing, tissue building and repair

Collagen helps wound healing and tissue repair after birth, supporting recovery from c-section and healing of your pelvic floor, uterus and abdominal muscles.  After giving birth collagen and elastin start rapidly breaking down. Postpartum it's important to get enough protein rich foods and nutrients to support collagen production and healing.  Key nutrients like Zinc can help to reduce the breakdown of collagen in tissue to support healing.  Our Motherhood Glow collagen provides 23% of your daily Zinc from natural wholefoods sources.  

 

Helps postpartum hair loss and healthy glowing skin and nails

Most new mums experience postpartum hair loss peaking at 4 months postpartum and continuing up to 12 months after giving birth. Collagen is full of amino acids which your body uses to build keratin in your hair - providing the building blocks for growing healthy new hair.  

During pregnancy skin stretches to make a home for your growing baby.  Postpartum collagen helps to improve skin elasticity, hydration and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.  

In Traditional Chinese medicine postpartum hair loss is due to blood deficiency which is common for new mums following blood loss giving birth.  Our Motherhood Glow collagen contains Traditional Chinese medicine superfood shiitake mushroom to nourish blood - used in times of healing and convalescence.  Shiitake mushroom also inhibits elastase, the enzyme that breaks down elastin, supporting healthy skin.  They are also rich in kojic acid – a compound that naturally brightens the skin and prevents melanin pigment forming.

Motherhood Glow contains key nutrients Vitamin C, Biotin and Selenium to support healthy hair, skin and nails and collagen formation providing 140% of your daily Biotin, 23% of daily Selenium and 55% of daily Vitamin C needs from natural wholefoods easily absorbed by your body.  

 

Helps joint pain

Carrying a little one night and day can put pressure on your joints and ligaments causing aches and pains especially while trying to heal post birth. Type 1 collagen can help reduce joint pain and inflammation. Collagen is the glue that makes up 90% of our connective tissue.  It also improves the integrity of joints, tendons, cartilage and connective tissue by increasing mobility.   

 

Supports gut health 

Collagen has digestive benefits. It can help seal and heal the gut lining which boosts immunity and assists issues associated with a permeable or “leaky” gut.  Motherhood Glow contains Type I Collagen peptides and Organic Baobab Fruit a natural source of prebiotic soluble and insoluble fibre to feed probiotics to help maintain a healthy gut microbiome.

It’s really not an exaggeration to say that Motherhood Glow has been an absolute saviour for me. After my first child I suffered significant post partum depletion. I started having Motherhood Glow daily after the birth of my second child and the difference was unbelievable, not just in my hair, skin and nails but my overall energy level was so much higher. It also tastes delicious and feels like a little morning treat every time I drink it.

Delicious

Motherhood Glow is delicious! I drink this daily with coconut water and feel energised, and great knowing I’m supporting my nutrition during postpartum with collagen and all the wonderful ingredients.
I’ve noticed my hair, skin and nails feel fantastic! Thanks HQ

10/10 for me

When I drank this I had an instant energy boost and overtime I’ve noticed my skin strengthen. Before this, my skin was so fatigued from breastfeeding and a lack of sleep, to the extent that I was bruising easily and I looked gaunt.

I was always quite sceptical of collagen drinks but at this stage of my life it’s exactly what I needed.

I noticed a huge difference and absolutely delicious!!

I have loved this product for my postpartum journey. This is my third baby and after my first two my nails were brittle and hair lost its shine and I lost so much so I was determined to find a product that could help avoid it this time around and I’ve been so impressed!! Not only does it taste amazing (I have it with coconut yogurt and chia seeds) but my hair is so shiny and nails are stronger than they have ever been. I highly recommend this product!
