Today, I have my friend Patrick Thomson from Never Been Stronger on the show, and we discuss the benefits of collagen on the body and how he lost weight to compete at the prestigious Arnold Classic as a natural powerlifter athlete. Patrick has his supplement line, and we discussed how sourcing collagen from healthy animals is essential for optimal health and performance and its effects on our skin and youthfulness.
