The Body’s Most Abundant Protein

Did you know the body produces 1%-2% less collagen per year, starting in your 30s? As the most abundant protein in the body, this contributes to wrinkles, joint pain, and dwindling bones.

Luckily, you can help restore collagen levels with NativePath for cartilage support, joint relief, and skin and nail health—without any fillers or “junk.” In one study,  postmenopausal women who took 5g of collagen a day saw a 7% increase in bone density in one year.

Simply add two grass-fed, flavorless, easily dissolvable scoops to coffee or your favorite drink for 18g of protein to promote bone health, digestion, and more!

45% off NativePath Collagen + free shipping with this link.
