To understand what collagen powder is, we have to begin by answering the question: what is collagen? In short, this is a protein that is commonly found in the body. In fact, collagen is extremely prolific in the skin. That explains why you always see collagen in health and beauty products. It is something that naturally occurs in the human body, but that the body produces less of as we age.
Without getting too scientific, proteins are made up of amino acids, and collagen is a particularly complex chain. It is incredibly strong, and it is necessary for many of the processes that go on in the body. Here are a few examples:
If so much of our body is made up of collagen, then why do you need to add more? Sadly, once we hit about age 25, our body begins to use collagen at a faster rate than it can produce it. While this is true of everyone, there are also certain lifestyles that speed up this collagen loss in the body.
For example, poor sleep, a sugar-heavy diet, high-stress hormone levels, injuries, sitting for long periods of time, certain vitamin deficiencies, and exposing your skin to too much sun. Free radicals can also affect collagen levels, so you want to get enough antioxidants and avoid things like cigarettes.
Between the body’s gradual loss of overall collagen and things you may have done throughout your life to increase this deficit, it may be time to start supplementing with collagen powder.

One of the nice things about collagen powder is that it is soluble in liquids. Once collagen is heated up, it turns into gelatin. You are probably familiar with this common ingredient in snacks like Jell-O. But before you run out and by some Jell-O snacks to get your collagen, remember that the properties change when it is heated and that sugary foods will reduce collagen in the body. The reason why we mention Jell-O is, if you have ever made it, you know the water has to be hot. Otherwise, the gelatin clumps instead of dissolving.
However, collagen is different. Having never been heated, it will dissolve in both hot and cold liquids. So that increases the number of ways you can use your collagen powder.
There are tons of creative ways to add collagen powder to your diet without having to go out of your way. Here are a few examples:
