At WelleCo, we're proud of our award-winning formulations, and The Collagen Elixir – with 93% of our WelleCommunity recommending it – has become a firm favourite among women, especially those aged 45-65 years old. A deep dive into customer feedback revealed that many of our WelleCommunity are either going through or post-menopause, which led us to explore how The Collagen Elixir is supporting this age group during this time.

 

It’s a well-known fact that, as we age, collagen production naturally slows down and this process only accelerates during menopause due to the drop in estrogen. Women lose about 30% of skin collagen in the first five years of menopause, and the decline continues at a rate of 1-2% annually thereafter. This loss can lead to drier skin, fine lines and wrinkles.

 

How The Collagen Elixir assists during menopause

 

As our WelleCommunity signals with their many reviews (simply scroll down on the product page until you get to 'Hear from our WelleCommunity' to view said reviews), supplementing with collagen can be a game-changer during menopause.

 

WelleCo’s Collagen Elixir contains 3.5g of sustainably sourced marine collagen peptides, which, at 2.5g and beyond, has been linked to clinical studies supporting their efficacy in promoting skin health, elasticity and hydration. Our unique blend also contains natural vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, silica and digestive enzymes to help hydrate and support healthy, radiant skin making it jam-packed with skin-satisfying ingredients.

 

Here’s exactly what our award-winning Elixir achieves, at any age:

 

- Boosts skin collagen formation.

- Supports skin elasticity and radiance.

- Unique, effective blend to aid collagen absorption.

- Maintains skin integrity and structure.

- Supports hydrated, healthy skin.

 

Why clinically-trialled collagen Naticol®?

 

We chose Naticol®, a high-quality marine collagen, for its proven efficacy and strong scientific backing. "We spent a considerable amount of time selecting the best hydrolysed collagen peptides for this formulation," says WelleCo’s Head Formulator, Atika. "We reviewed over 10 options, and this material was superior in terms of solubility, taste, quality, and, to top it off, science-backed. For us, it was the perfect match for The Collagen Elixir."

 

Studies have shown that collagen supplementation with Naticol®, especially during menopause, can help improve skin elasticity, reduce wrinkles, and enhance hydration. For example, a clinical studyusing 2.5g of Naticol® collagen daily found significant improvements in skin firmness, elasticity, hydration and wrinkle reduction, highlighting the benefits of collagen for skin aging.

 

Naticol® has been studied in seven clinical trials, demonstrating benefits for skin aging, joint health, and overall healthy aging. Its high bioavailability ensures optimal absorption and effective collagen production in skin, joints and bones. Additionally, Naticol® is sustainably sourced and Friend of the Sea and MSC Chain of Custody Standard certified, with seven times lower greenhouse gas emissions than bovine collagen, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

 

Key benefits of Naticol® include:

 

- High purity and efficient protein source

- Enhanced biological activity due to enzymatic hydrolysis

- Backed by seven scientific studies on skin, joint health and aging

 

We selected fish collagen because it offers excellent bioavailability and a lower environmental impact compared to bovine collagen.
