“I am not anti-aging, I am pro-aging. We are all aging every single day. It’s called how do you work with aging, not against it.”
Struggling with wrinkles and joint pain? It’s time to harness the natural power of two essential nutrients! In this episode, Dr. Mindy shows you how hydrolyzed collagen and vitamin C can help you age beautifully. Join us for a deep dive into some pro-aging secrets.
Plus, Dr. Mindy answers listener’s questions:
- How can I get all the protein I need while fasting?
- Which protein is best?
- What do you say about fish?
- How am I still in a fasted state if I eat a fasted snack?
- How can I stop overeating after I break my fast?
In this episode, Boost Collagen & Age Naturally with These Nutrients & More!, you’ll learn:
- Why perimenopause can lead to faster collagen loss (and what to do about it)
- Why fasting can actually support collagen production (if done correctly!)
- The secret to breaking your fast without triggering cravings or overeating
- How to slow down the gene that speeds up wrinkles and keep your skin hydrated naturally
The Two Nutrients You Need
One of the biggest concerns as we age? Collagen loss. If you’ve started noticing more wrinkles, joint stiffness, or slower recovery from injuries, chances are your collagen levels are declining—especially if you’re a woman over 40. But don’t worry, there’s a simple fix!
In this episode, I’m revealing two key nutrients that will help you naturally boost collagen production, keep your skin glowing, and your joints strong. Plus, I’ll be answering five of your most asked questions about protein intake, fasting, and how to break a fast without overeating.
Let’s work with aging, not against it!

Creation was mentioned as being vital, but no details were provided. How much creatine of what type and in combination with what other nutrients? Also, anything that should be avoided.

Enjoyed this very much. I prefer the transcript and it is not available. Also, link to study of collagen & Vit C does not work.

Hi Dr. Mindy!
I’ve been taking Vital Proteins Collagen peptides for years! Do you recommend another brand? I’m worried about heavy metals in my supplements and want to make sure my protein powders are clean.
Also, does taking collagen protein powders in coffee on a day you are fasting break your fast?
I’ve learned so much from you! Thank you!

What is the best hydrolyzed collagen and what type of creatine and how much. I am 56 and 115.

I cannot find the link to the fast training week you had mentioned. Where would I be able to find that?
SherryMarch 10, 2025 at 3:23 pm
Will taking the Hydrolyzed Collagen in coffee break your Fast? Thanks
JeanMarch 12, 2025 at 6:58 pm
You mentioned eating a “Fat Bomb” Will not break a fast because it may not produce a spike in glucose. However, wouldn’t your body stimulate the release of insulin after eating the “fat bomb”?

Hi
Would love to know when to take Vit C with Collagen for best results. Any recommendation of these supplements?
