About one quarter of all of the protein in your body is collagen. Collagen is a major structural protein, forming molecular cables that strengthen the tendons and vast, resilient sheets that support the skin and internal organs.

But, in spite of its critical function in the body, collagen is a relatively simple protein. | About one quarter of all of the protein in your body is collagen.
