Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies! Saying this, we lose it as we get older so it is important to increase our intake where possible. This collagen booster soup is the perfect way to pack in all the extra nutrients. The vitamin C found in leafy green vegetables increase our collagen absorption & the nutra-organics powder supplements specifically target skin, nail, gut & bone strength/structure. Increasing collagen intake is associated with several different health benefits and this soup is the perfect, tasty way to increase that.
