Collagen

Collagen is not an essential nutrient but it is a type of protein. Your body naturally produces it for the construction of connective tissues among other things.

Vegan Sources

Citrus fruits, berries and antioxidant-rich foods, garlic, leafy greens, beans, cashews are some plant foods that help your body produce collagen. Heavy weight training helps your body produce growth hormones that create collagen.
