How did Jim get involved into Collagen:
Poor Health, overweight with backpain, after trial and error he met the creator of hydrolyzed collagen (medical collagen)

What kind of collagen should I take?
You do not want raw or whole food collagen product…
Collagen in your body is 3 molecular strands wrapped around each other. As we age our body has a hard time breaking down different things including PROTEINS.
Collagen MUST BE HYDROLYZED before you take it— hydrolyzing breaks down so it does not need to be digested— it can be ABSORBED easily!
Collagen Peptides after hydrolization are broken down into amino acids (bi- and tri- peptides)
