❄️ Choosing the Right Collagen Powder for Winter Wellness

As the temperature drops, our skin, joints, and immune systems often feel the effects.


Collagen, a vital protein that supports skin elasticity, joint health, and overall vitality can be a powerful winter wellness ally. But with so many options on the market, how do you choose the right collagen powder? Here’s what to look for:


✅ Look for Types I and III Collagen

These are the most common types found in skin, hair, and nails. Type I supports skin elasticity and hydration, especially important when winter air dries us out. Type III works alongside Type I to improve skin firmness and promote healthy circulation.


🐄 Know Your Source: Bovine vs. Marine

Bovine collagen (from cows) is rich in Types I and III. It is great for skin, joints, and gut health.

Marine collagen (from fish) is easier to digest and may absorb more quickly ideal for beauty-focused results.


Choose based on your dietary needs and goals.

🍵 Check for Clean Ingredients


Choose a powder that’s:

Grass-fed / pasture-raised (if bovine)

Wild-caught (if marine) and preferably sustainable – MSC Verified

Free of additives, sugar, and artificial flavors


Pure collagen should dissolve easily and have little to no taste, perfect to stir into coffee, tea, or smoothies.


🌿 Consider Extra Ingredients for Winter Support


Some collagen powders include bonus nutrients like:

Vitamin C – essential for collagen synthesis and immunity

Hyaluronic acid – supports skin hydration

Zinc or biotin – for added skin and hair health


🕒 Pick a Routine That Works for You

Consistency matters more than timing. Whether you blend it into your morning latte or a nighttime tea, choose a collagen powder that fits your lifestyle so you're more likely to stick with it.
