➡️ Why you need Mannatech's Essentials Collagen. Coming Soon...
Collagen isn't just a "beauty supplement," and it's definitely not only for women. Men need collagen just as much, and in some areas even more
Why collagen matters for men
⏺️1. Muscle recovery & strength Collagen is rich in glycine and proline, key amino acids used to build connective tissue • Supports muscle repair after gym training • Reduces post-workout oint pain • Helps maintain lean body mass as men age After age 30, men can lose up to 3-5% of muscle mass per decade, and collagen helps slow this.

⏺️ 2. Joint & ligament support Men usually put more mechanical strain on joints (sports, weightlifting, manual work) • Strengthens tendons and ligaments • Helps reduce wear-and-tear inflammation • Supports long-term mobility and flexibility
⏺️ 3. Metabolism, energy & fat loss Collagen boosts mitochondrial function and supports a healthy metabolism • Helps maintain healthy blood sugar balance • Supports fat burning when paired with exercise • Improves sleep quality (glycine stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system
Better sleep = better testosterone, better recovery better performance
⏺️ 4. Skin ageing - yes, men too
Even if men don't focus on skincare, collagen still matters:
• SIows wrinkles and skin sagging • Strengthens hair and hair follicles • Supports stronger nails
Men naturally lose collagen faster because of higher UV exposure and often less skincare
🔥5. Gut health & inflammatior
Collagen helps maintain gut lining integrity
• Supports digestion
• Reduces inflammation
• Helps absorption of nutrients - crucial for
performance and immunity
⌛️Collagen decline in men After 25:
• Collagen production drops ~
1% per year At 40+:
• Collagen loss accelerates ,affecting joints,
muscle recovery, and testosterone pathways
🚶♂️Signs men may need more collagen someone. experiences:
✔️ ioint stiffness
✔️ slower muscle recovery
✔️ sore knees/shoulders/back
✔️ gut discomfort or bloating
✔️ thinning hair or aging skin
✔️ sleep problems

:🤔 Isn't protein powder enough?
Protein powder builds muscle - but it's not collagen.
Whey --> builds muscle Collagen --> builds connective tissue
Most injuries in fitness aren't muscle injuries... they're connective-tissue injuries (tendons ligaments, joints)
That's why collagen + training = fewer setbacks.
