2 Things You Should Know About Collagen products
Collagen products are all the rage, and for good reason; but did you know there's different types of collagen?  I didn't, until recently.  Today I'm going to talk about two of them:  There's Type 1 Collagen, which is sourced from fish; and Type 2 Collagen, which is sourced from Bovine (cows).   They both are good for you, but they address different things.

Type 1 Collagen is the major matrix protein of the skin.  It is also found in tendons, bones, artery walls, & intestines. 

Type 2 collagen, most from bovine sources, is the type of collagen found in cartilage.

Type 1 collagen has a smaller molecular weight which yields better bioavailability, which means it can be better absorbed into the body.  

Type 2 collagen is a good option for joint health; but the molecular weight is larger and not as effective for skin, hair & nail health.  

Young Living spent 4 years researching and coming up with a Type 1 Marine Collagen product that has shown positive results for Skin, Hair & Nails in as little as 3 weeks!  This new collagen product is called Inner Beauty Collagen, because it's working on your beauty from the inside-out!  Men & women will both get incredible benefits from Inner Beauty Collagen.  Let's dive a little deeper into what makes this product so good (besides, of course, our Seed to Seal promise of quality and purity). 

Inner Beauty Collagen has a unique combination of amino acids, including hydroxyproline and glycine,
distinctive peptides that stimulate cells in the skin.  It is formulated with marine collagen peptides, hyaluronic acid, ceramides, prebiotic fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.  These ingredients have proven to improve smoothness and elasticity of the skin, as well as reducing the appearance of fine lines and deep wrinkles.

Inner Beauty Collagen's natural ceramide ingredient is derived from Japanese peaches, commonly called white peaches. Through oral administration, peach ceramides were found to provide hydration to the skin.
This happens because they strengthen skin permeability and allow more moisture to be absorbed by the skin, which helps decrease skin dryness.  

Hyaluronic acid also supports skin hydration. 

Every single ingredient in this formula is active.  It does not contain colors, fillers, flavors, or sweeteners.
We also formulated with vitamin C and zinc that will support collagen biosynthesis; and biotin, in combination with collagen, will support hair and nail health.

Inner Beauty Collagen also has a prebiotic fiber in it!  It has been found that by taking prebiotic fiber, like tapioca fiber, you support healthy skin by balancing the gut microbiome! 

I just started taking this product on a daily basis, and I love how it has no taste - you can add it to anything you're drinking (even your morning coffee!) ~ I like to mix it with my NingXia Red and Golden Turmeric!  Talk about a powerhouse of antioxidants!  And now I can add support for my Skin, Hair & Nails!

My Story

 
For decades, I lived and worked in a high-stress environment as a court reporter, balancing demanding 80-hour workweeks while raising my son as a single mother.

From the outside, I was strong and capable. But internally, the chronic pressure was quietly reshaping my body in ways I didn’t yet understand.

Over time, the effects of prolonged stress began to surface—fatigue, imbalance, and eventually an autoimmune diagnosis that forced me to pause and reconsider everything I thought I knew about health.

What I discovered changed the trajectory of my life.

I began to understand that the body is not fragile or broken. It is adaptive, intelligent, and constantly responding to its environment. Symptoms were not random failures. They were signals—evidence of deeper systems working hard to protect and preserve balance under prolonged strain.

This realization shifted my focus completely.

Instead of chasing symptoms or forcing solutions, I began studying the underlying systems that influence energy, metabolism, brain function, hormones, and long-term vitality. As I supported those systems using natural, sustainable approaches, my body began to restore balance in ways I had not thought possible.

That experience became the foundation of my work.

For more than two decades, I have helped others understand their bodies through this same systems-based lens—helping them move from frustration and confusion to clarity and confidence in their wellness journey.

My work is not about quick fixes or temporary solutions. It is about helping you understand what your body has been communicating, so you can support it in restoring balance naturally and sustainably.

When you understand the deeper patterns, everything begins to make more sense.

And from that place of understanding, true healing becomes possible.
