4. Hydrolyzed Collagen + Vitamin C — Deep Healing for Joints and Muscles
Collagen isn’t just a beauty buzzword—it’s a structural protein that your body needs to keep joints, bones, and muscles strong.
As we age, our natural collagen levels decline. Supplementing with hydrolyzed collagen helps restore what’s lost—especially overnight, when your body is in repair mode.
To boost collagen’s absorption, pair it with vitamin C (which helps your body use it effectively).
How to enjoy it:
- Dissolve 1 serving of hydrolyzed collagen in a glass of water or juice
- Choose a vitamin C-rich juice (like orange, kiwi, or strawberry)
- Drink it 30 minutes before bedtime
Best for: seniors with joint stiffness, weak nails, sagging skin, or bone concerns
Why Bedtime Is the Perfect Time to Nourish Your Muscles
When you sleep, your body does its most important work:
- Rebuilding muscle fibers
- Repairing damaged tissues
- Balancing hormones
- Reducing inflammation
By giving your body the right nutrients before bed, you’re turning your sleep into a natural overnight repair process—one that can help you age with more energy, independence, and confidence.
Build a Better Nighttime Routine (That Works for Your Body)
You don’t need a complete diet overhaul. Just add 1 or 2 of these options into your evening snack or dinner routine:
| Evening Time | What to Eat or Drink |
|---|---|
| 6:30–7:00 PM Dinner | Add a boiled egg or a kiwi with your meal |
| 8:00–8:30 PM Snack | Sip turmeric milk or collagen in juice |
| 9:00 PM (Optional) | Gentle stretches, reading, or a short walk for circulation |
| 10:00 PM | Lights out — your body starts working while you rest! |
