Wait… Collagen doesn’t count?


Hi Reader,

Quick one to wrap up the supplement series…

Collagen.

I use it. I like it. It has a place.

But here’s where things get confusing:

🔹 It does NOT support muscle or metabolism
🔹 And it does NOT count toward your daily protein as it’s not a complete protein.

Are you this woman?

🔹 what collagen doesn’t do

Hey Reader, I was talking with a patient.... let’s call her Sarahand I felt for her... her frustration was over the top. She actually said... “I don’t get it… I’m barely eating, I’m working out almost every day, and I just keep gaining weight.” But what really got me was this part that I hear from so many patients...
