Nuts for Peanut Butter?
Ahhh Peanut Butter, a girl's best friend... Better than keeping a jar in your bag, these cookies taste like a naughty, melt in your mouth, biscuity peanut butter treat. Completely guilt free and designed to be eaten daily to support healthy hair, skin and nails. Lots of good fats and very low in sugar so they guaranteed to cure 'hangriness'!
It's found in your hair, your skin, your nails, and is the main protein in your connective tissue, which basically connects your whole body.
An easy way to explain it is to think of your connective tissue as a wet sponge. You can stretch it, you can pull it… it's pretty elastic. But when it's not in good health, it's like a dry sponge; it's not as hydrated, not as bouncy, and not as full. And as a result, it doesn’t function as well and you appear older.
The more you can boost your collagen levels, the younger you will look and feel. That’s why collagen supplementation is great as you get older because it actually provides a daily source of what your body is creating less of and it makes you look fresher and younger.
That’s because your body can start to use it immediately.

Having been in the Anti-Ageing business for 20 years we understand the importance of collagen supplements to make you feel younger on the inside and outside. Collagen boosts energy, it makes you look fresher and your skin is more vibrant. Love the fact that they are gluten free, dairy free, low in sugar and all natural.

As a nutritionist, I'm always looking for super easy yet tasty and filling snack and meal options to recommend my clients that are based on real food. Beauty Food snacks are tasty, filling and easy. Plus they're packed with boatloads of micronutrients (bonus of real food).

These are my absolute favourite snack and I honestly have one almost everyday. I am always on the go with castings and my job so sometimes its hard to find nourishing snacks (I’m ALWAYS hungry) that you can take anywhere and taste incredible but these are so perfect!!!! There is so much goodness packed into them and I have noticed a difference in my skin which is glowing since I started eating them! I also love them for dessert at night if I’m feeling like a little something after dinner.

Beauty Food collagen bites are a healthy, sweet snack made from nuts and hydrolysed collagen protein. Other snacks typically use dried fruit such as dates as their binding agent which creates a product full of sugar (often 25% sugar or more!), or they're made using artificial fillers, thickeners and sweeteners which can play havoc with your hormones and destroy your health. The addition of collagen, which is completely tasteless, has the added benefit of improving your hair, skin and nails naturally.
TextThe best way to describe the taste would be like a nut butter biscuit! Beauty Food collagen bites are sweet but they’re very low in sugar which is important to ensure you can absorb the collagen.
Sugar in the bloodstream attaches to collagen and elastin molecules via the glycation process, forming harmful new molecules called ‘advanced glycation end products’ (AGE’s). The more sugar you eat, the more AGE’s you develop, and the more collagen and elastin fibres get damaged. The glycation process also transforms the most stable and long-lasting collagen fibres to more fragile fibres. This is one of the main reasons sugar makes us age on both the inside and outside. Too many AGE’s causes the skin to wrinkle, negatively impacts the biomechanical properties of tendons and leads to gut issues (due to damage caused to the intestinal lining resulting in inflammation).
If that wasn’t bad enough, sugar competes with vitamin C for space in cells due the similarities in their chemical structure. Diets high in sugar leads to low levels of vitamin C, thus inhibiting formation of new collagen fibres. For this reason, watch out for supplements that are high in sugar and don’t contain vitamin C because the likelihood is, they probably won’t work!
We source our hydrolysed grass-fed bovine collagen from the world's best source, Brazil.
Beauty Food collagen bites are made on the NSW Central Coast, Australia.
