Radiant Skin Protocol – Patient Guide

What's Inside and Why It Matters

• Whole Body Collagen (Designs for Health): Provides hydrolyzed collagen peptides (Types I, II, and III) that help support skin structure, elasticity, and firmness. Collagen supplementation is particularly helpful as natural collagen production declines with age.

• C+BioFizz (Designs for Health): A buffered vitamin C powder with added bioflavonoids (quercetin, rutin, hesperidin) to support antioxidant defenses, reduce inflammation, and assist in collagen synthesis. Vitamin C is a cofactor required for collagen cross-linking and dermal repair.

• MSM Powder (Pure Encapsulations): A natural source of sulfur that plays a key role in collagen stability and skin integrity. MSM may also reduce inflammation and improve skin texture over time.

• Zinc 15 (Pure Encapsulations, optional): A gentle daily dose of zinc to support wound healing, barrier repair, and skin immune balance. Zinc is especially helpful for individuals with compromised healing or chronic inflammation.

 

Using the Protocol

Take the recommended products daily as directed. For convenience, powders may be combined into a single morning drink. Consistency is key — visible results may begin within 6–12 weeks, but long-term use is encouraged to help maintain healthy, radiant skin.

Pair this protocol with professional skincare, sun protection, and a nutrient-dense diet for optimal results.

Timeless Radiance: Advanced Skin Renewal Protocol

Protocol Overview

This protocol was designed to support mature skin (typically 40+) through a carefully selected blend of clinically researched supplements. These nutrients work synergistically to promote collagen production, replenish hydration, reduce oxidative damage, and restore firmness and radiance from within. Consistent use is key to achieving and maintaining visible skin improvements. Please consult your primary care provider before starting any supplements to ensure these supplements are appropriate for your health history and medications.
