How To Incorporate Collagen Into Your Self-Care Routine
1. Start Your Morning With Lemon Ginger Collagen Water™
Meeting your daily hydration needs starts from the moment you wake up. But we understand that getting a full eight cups a day (plus or minus) is easier said than done. Enter this collagen-infused bottle. With 10g of collagen, 1g of sugar and a delightful lemon-ginger flavor, it's the best (and most delicious!) way to start your day to reach your daily intake. Pro tip: Stock 'em in your fridge and it'll be the first thing you reach for once getting out of bed.
2. Scoop Collagen Peptides Into Soothing Herbal Tea
There's nothing like a steaming cup of herbal tea to put mind, body and soul at ease. (Bonus if it goes hand-in-hand with a cozy blanket and good book!) Supplement your soothing cup of chamomile or rooibos with a scoop or two of Collagen Peptides to support healthy hair, skin, nails and joints.** Since the formula is odorless and flavorless, you won't be able to tell the differences as you savor your cup!
3. Fuel Your Exercise With Vital Performance™ PreWAVE
Whether you're hitting your apartment's communal Peloton, or you're going for a jog outdoors, sneaking in exercise is a great way to clear your head (especially after a stressful day). Next time, before you go out and get your blood pumping, consider adding Vital Performance™ PreWAVE, a first-of-its-kind support system for muscles and joints, to a glass of water. Formulated with caffeine from Coffeeberry® coffee fruit extract, it acts as an energy booster to keep you going strong** from minute one until the very end. (How about that for a new workout BFF?)
