Collagen isn’t just a skincare buzzword – it’s a living protein your body is constantly breaking down and rebuilding. And in your 40s and 50s, that process needs real support.

In this episode, Lindsey breaks down what actually happens to collagen during perimenopause (hint: up to 30% loss in the first five years), why topical skincare alone can’t fix it, and the dead-simple morning habit that makes internal collagen support something you’ll actually stick to.

You’ll learn:

  • The amino acids and nutrients your body needs to build collagen
  • How sugar degrades collagen through a process called glycation
  • Why bone broth protein differs from standard collagen peptides
  • The three-layer framework for supporting your skin from the inside out
