Your Body's Building Block
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body, making up roughly 30% of all protein. It's the structural scaffolding for your skin, joints, bones, and gut lining. After age 25, your body produces less collagen each year — supplementing helps maintain the structural integrity your body depends on.
Here's what Collagen brings to every VitalForge bar

The word 'collagen' comes from the Greek word 'kólla,' meaning glue. Ancient civilizations literally used boiled animal hides (a crude collagen source) as an adhesive!
A meta-analysis in the International Journal of Dermatology (2021) found that collagen supplementation significantly improved skin hydration, elasticity, and wrinkle reduction across 19 studies.
