Now, aging is a natural and beautiful thing that should be embraced, not rejected. That being said, supporting your skin (and entire body, for that matter) throughout this time is important, which may call for some new skin care practices (here’s a list of some ingredients to look for in healthy aging products). At the top of your list, you’ll want an effective collagen supplement—and women over 50 have particularly been loving mindbodygreen’s beauty & gut collagen+. After trying out other collagen supplements for five years without seeing noticeable benefits, user Sharon B. decided to give mbg’s collagen a try: “After using one bag, I can tell a difference in my skin, hair, and nails,”* she says in a review. “I liked it so much I decided to subscribe, which I never do. I’m 59 years old and highly recommend this collagen.” The formula also utilizes the natural antioxidant power of plants by blending together turmeric and sulforaphane glucosinolate (SGS), which is a phytochemical found in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli. Because turmeric and SGS are high in anti-inflammatory properties, they support detoxification, combat oxidative stress, help protect the skin from photoaging, and support a healthy gut.* Not to mention, the powder comes in both an unflavored and rich chocolate variety (thanks to premium organic cocoa), making it easy to incorporate into your daily routine. “I mix this into brownies, fudge, [and] coffee. My hair and skin are in great shape. Looking at my 50s as the glorious years instead of the golden years,”* says Katherine B., another mbg collagen powder fan. We agree—the 50s are glorious, especially if you’re taking care of your body and focusing on healthy aging from all angles.
