At WillPowders, we get asked about the difference between Bovine and Marine collagen all the time. Our collagen is Bovine and this was a conscious and well researched decision. Also, we can’t figure out why anyone would want to pay through the nose for a collagen (if it's a peptide)!
Meet turmeric, the golden spice that's responsible for giving curry its iconic colour, and also packs a serious health punch. From joint pain relief to boosting brain health and banishing brain fog.
Collagen seems to be everywhere even in that infamous, middle aisle of my fave discount supermarket . But what is it? Why is it so fashionable and are they worth investing in?
The good news is; your gut will look after you if you look after it. Recovering from gut problems means adopting a diet that’s gentle on the stomach, nourishes the entire body, and doesn’t create additional toxicity.
Knowledge is power. Understanding why swapping certain ingredients out of your diet and replacing them with these new "whacky" ones will help you understand why they work. I use MCT every day in some capacity. This is why I champion it.

I believe biohacking is needed now more than ever. We live in a society that has sadly normalised feeling sub-par and having a variety of symptoms like aches and pains, brain fog, headaches, fatigue, and insomnia, just to name a few. While the conventional healthcare system has had a reactive approach to treating what’s wrong in the body, biohacking takes a proactive approach to adopt health-promoting behaviours.
