Do You Need Collagen Supplements?

The truth about the trendy powders and their purported anti-aging benefits

This post is from my previous newsletter, Food Psych Weekly.

This week’s question is from a reader named Pat, who writes:

I am a 74-year-old female. I have heard and read many articles about adding collagen to my diet to help with wrinkles, sagging skin, etc. Are these articles and advertisements just bogus, or does adding collagen really help? How in the world would I know which one to try, since there do not seem to be any rules or regulations around this type of product?
