We ’ ve been on the hunt for an organic , non-GMO , whole food , vegan plant collagen booster because we know most women want their skin , hair and nails to stay as young-looking as possible — for as long as possible . Millions of women from all age groups want this same thing .
Seriously , who is going to just sit back and let Father Time take over ? Well now , you don ’ t have to !
Introducing a Certified USDA Organic , Non-GMO Project Verified , Vegan Certified , Gluten Free Certified Plant Collagen Builder made from over 30 real , nutritious organic , family-farmed whole food foods — with specifically chosen ingredients to help support the body ’ s own collagen production .
It ’ s amazing , and can help restore and maintain youthful levels of collagen , keratin and elastin — three proteins which promote the body ’ s healthy , natural glow ! †
Here are the food ingredients in Organic Plant Collagen Builder :
First is Silica from 100 % Certified Organic and All Natural Bamboo Extract . Bamboo shoots are excellent sources of protein , supplying a variety of minerals , including silica . This special bamboo extract is standardized for 75 % organic silica , along with co-factors and co-nutrients of bamboo shoots . Silica from bamboo is a key co-nutrient for collagen production .
One of our favorites , Organic Amla Berry serves up a healthy helping of whole food vitamin C , a vital co-nutrient for collagen production in the skin . Plus , it protects cells and skin from nasty free radicals , helping to prevent signs of natural aging . †
As technical as it sounds — High Polypenolic Pomegranate — polyphenol is simply a term for the several thousand plantbased molecules with potent antioxidant properties . And pomegranate is an antioxidant / polyphenol superstar ! Antioxidants provide numerous health benefits , while polyphenols are beneficial for proper enzyme and cell receptor function . † Among other things , high polyphenolic pomegranate supports skin health and protection from UV damage . †
Now for Organic Rooibus and Organic Green Tea .

Then there ’ s “ beauty-boosting Biotin ” from flowering plants in the pea family , called Sesbania , a clean , pure biotin source . When it comes to healthy hair , skin and nails , biotin ’ s a must ! †

The Beauty of Collagen , Keratin and Elastin —
Three Foundational Proteins for Amazingly Healthy Skin , Hair , Nails and More ! †
The most abundant protein in the human body , collagen totally holds us together . It ’ s the body ’ s scaffolding , providing structure and strength . †
Collagen makes up 25 percent of the body ’ s protein and most of the bones , muscle fibers , ligaments , tendons , blood vessels , teeth and eyes PLUS 90 % of skin , hair and nails !
But normal aging breaks down collagen , and around age 30 ( or earlier ), we start losing 1 % of collagen each year .
Wrinkles form . Skin dries . Hair thins . Nails get brittle .
But good news ! There are certain nutrients in plants — including what ’ s in Organic Plant Collagen Builder — that help to build collagen and support elastin and keratin levels . †
Elastin ’ s a highly elastic protein found in connective tissue , allowing many bodily tissues to resume their shape following stretching or contracting .
Likewise , keratin is a fibrous structural protein making up the outer layer of human skin , and protecting epithelial cells from damage or stress .
Keratin also makes up 95 percent of hair , and is a key structural part of nails . †
That ’ s literally the BEAUTY of collagen , elastin and keratin !
