The thing is collagen and I have a long historyand not always a good one.

I’ve been a health and wellness blogger for quite some time.

I spent my teenage years battling a near-fatal eating disorder.

From there, I love seeing what works for me as an individual.

Why I decided to try mindbodygreen’s grass-fed collagen+.

In my early blogging days, I fell into wellness circles where there was always talk ofcollagen supplementsfloating around.

After hearing about the host ofbenefits, I decided to try some for myself.

But every brand I’ve experimented with left mebloatedand even sometimes doubled over in stomach pain.

I remember being in college and sitting in class with piercing jolts in my abdomen.

I had no idea what was going on inside.

Wasn’t collagen supposed to help with issues like this?

Eventually my supply ran out, and I never got around to restocking.

This turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

Once I stopped taking it, my symptoms subsided!

It was with great sadness and defeat that I accepted I just wasn’t a collagen girl.

“Pleasantly surprised” doesn’t even begin to capture my feelings about this product.

  • I was never the girl with perfect skin, but now my face literally glows.

Given the chaos of the past few months, I’ve been under plenty of stress.

Under times of stress, usually my digestion takes a major hit.

But adding this collagen to the mix has helped me immensely.

This isn’t to say Ineverget bloated (I’m human!

), but when it comes to the day-to-day, I’m seeing major improvements.

The combo is absolutely lovely post-workout and leaves me feeling my best!

My younger self is very jealous she didn’t have this product sooner.

The takeaway

Health is an incredibly wide spectrum.

You just might be too!
