Talk to me about collagens or more specifically collagen with thermogenic burners?

Hi Xolala,
There are a lot of collagen and other "fat burner" products sold out there but unfortunately, there is very little science to support their use. I would suggest focusing on a healthy diet and exercise program to lose weight and save your money for healthy foods. Your body produces its own collagen and you can ensure you produce plenty by including protein foods such as eggs, fish, chicken, fish, beef, dairy, and beans. Also, include citrus fruits, tomatoes, leafy greens, nuts, and whole grains.
Hope this helps! Brenda (MyNetDiary Dietitian)

Even with correct diet, your body’s own natural production of collagen after 30 slows (and there’s science that proves that). I’m just curious to see if anyone has a brand they use and also if anyone uses thermogenic burners.

For collagen I use a complete compound liquid collagen called ProT Gold

Instead of taking collagen, I take Biosil. It’s been blind-tested (the highest standard of clinical testing), and shown to stimulate our bodies to produce our own collagen. If we eat collagen or take collagen supplements, I think we simply digest the collagen as a protein. It makes more sense to produce our own. The Biosil does work, but you have to take it for three months before you see results. After that, you have to keep taking it, or your body will start losing collagen again. I’m very, very pleased with how it is working for me. It’s expensive, but so are collagen supplements and fancy face creams. IMO, Biosil works much better. Note: I don’t work for the Biosil company or know anyone who does.

Also, I think the liquid gel caps work better than the capsules that have the little balls in them. The liquid in the bottle is the most cost-effective form, but I don’t like the taste, even when stirred into juice. So, I buy the liquid gelcaps.

Of course, we also need to eat enough protein in our diets, as Brenda the Dietician said. We can’t make something from nothing! The Biosil is just a stimulator to make us use the protein we eat to make new collagen, just like we did when we were younger.

You can buy Biosil from Amazon, or any vitamin store. I order direct from the company website and have it on auto-ship. https://www.biosil.beauty/en-us/

Again, I am NOT associated with the company in any way. I’m just a customer.

Also, I am taking Biosil to help me look younger and to make my joints feel better. I don’t think it helos with weight loss at all, and the company does not make any claims that it does.
