Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies, and makes up about a third of our total protein. These amino acids are used throughout the body and are mostly in your skin, tendons, and ligaments.

This episode answers questions on whether collagen helps with stretch marks, if it safe for pregnancy, and whether there any evidence to support the benefits.
