Collagen is a type of protein that is actually found in a lot of mammals. It is a protein that is part of a lot of internal and external body structures. Our heart, veins, muscles, joints, and skin are all made up of collagen protein. However, in this post, we will be discussing the benefits of collagen for the skin. I will also tell you what were my findings of trying a drink infused with collagen for the first time!

Before I further explain my experience with this drink. I think it is best for me to expand on what collagen actually is, and how it can be beneficial for your skin.
Your skin is your largest organ. As you age your skin is unable to produce as much collagen so you lose skin elasticity and your skin’s ability to maintain hydration. So your skin will be generally drier as you age. This loss of collagen production is what causes wrinkles since collagen is part of your skin’s connective tissue.
Some dermatologists say that taking collagen orally is the best option if you want to keep your skin’s elasticity at its best. And dermatologists also rave how collagen helps to maintain the moisture and hydration of the skin.
There are various collagen supplements in the market. But it is fair to say that not all of us are fans of taking tablets, such as collagen peptides or adding them to our morning drinks and making them taste powdery. . If this is the case for you, then FYX has an alternative way of adding collagen to your lifestyle. FYX has a collagen drink that is infused with spring water and it has 2500mg premium Naticol® Marine Collagen.
They have two flavours. I was gifted the raspberry, açai berry, white tea, and aloe vera FYX drink. I kept mine in the fridge and it was super refreshing. It didn’t have a medicinal taste at all, it just tasted like raspberry flavoured water. I enjoyed it and would drink it again.
The benefits of marine collagen are amazing for your skin, hair, nails and your bones!
FYX currently have two types of collagen-infused water. There is the FYX Body, which is specifically made for your Body. There is also FYX Beauty which has Lemon & Lime, Moringa Tea, Lemon Balm and Aloe Vera flavour!
The benefits of adding collagen to your lifestyle are vast. Not only does it help your skin, but it also aids your hair, nails and internal organs! Adding collagen supplements to your diet will help smooth out your wrinkles and aid strengthen the moisture barrier of your skin, which will make your skin look more glowy and plump.
