While many other collagen supplements are packed full of collagen-damaging refined sugar, Tranont GLOW is made using only natural flavors and the zero-calorie, natural sweetener Stevia Rebaudiana-Leaf extract.

Which means you can enjoy a sweet-tasting supplement without any collagen-destroying drawbacks.

Yes

Absolutely.

Although genetics plays a role, collagen decline generally begins in our late teens or twenties and only starts to become visible later.

By supplementing with collagen early, it becomes easier to restore collagen depletion, stimulate your body's natural collagen production, and maintain your youthful inner and outer glow.

The collagen molecule is far too large to be absorbed through the skin.

Because of this, it's scientifically impossible for topically-applied collagen (in skin creams and serums) to penetrate through the dermis.

Some board-certified physicians offer a cosmetic procedure where collagen is injected directly under the skin.

While this does appear to be effective in boosting levels of collagen in the skin, there are a number of possible side effects including skin redness, swelling, bleeding, bruising, possible scarring and, in rare cases, the creation of wounds.

Remember, collagen is the 'glue' that holds together not just our skin but also our joints, bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, blood vessels, and organs...which is why we recommend Tranont's GLOW liquid supplement to experience the full whole-body benefit of a collagen boost.

Collagen is a non-toxic, dietary supplement with a solid safety profile.

Of course, if you have an allergy to any of the ingredients contained in Tranont GLOW, you should consult your healthcare provider before taking it.

In some cases, taking a larger than recommended dose can result in an upset stomach or a feeling of 'overfullness'

Absolutely.

Collagen is equally as important for men and women, and both experience the 'collagen collapse' as a natural part of aging.

This is why GLOW is absolutely perfect for both men and women who want to refresh, revitalize, and rejuvenate not just their skin but their entire body!

Fully replenishing your lost collagen and stimulating natural collagen production doesn't happen overnight.

Results vary from person to person based on genetics, health, diet, exercise, but you should expect to begin seeing visible results after 4 weeks of regular use, and within 8-12 weeks experience most of the benefits such as wrinkle reduction and significant improvement of your skin, nails, and hair.

Some benefits, specifically the minimization of the appearance of cellulite, ar generally experienced only through prolonged use.

Tranont GLOW is formulated using a revolutionary Triple-Action collagen-boosting blend.

Our product...

1. Restores your body's depleted levels of collagen and stimulates your body's natural collagen production via 100% Bio-Available Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides
2. Protects collagen from free radical damage using our Superfood Antioxidant Blend
3. Provides the nutrients you need to enhance your collagen production and improve the health of your skin, hair, nails, joints, muscles, bones, and more

And, unlike other collagen supplements, Tranont GLOW contains no collagen-destroying sugar (instead, we use zero-calorie, stevia leaf extract)

Tranont GLOW was created in partnership with our scientific advisory board, to bring you the best, healthiest, and most natural Collagen supplement.

For additional information on the role of collagen in the body and the efficacy of collagen supplementation—along with the other ingredients in our proprietary blend—you can review the 'references' below to explore the peer-reviewed science that powers GLOW.

Tranont GLOW is a liquid collagen drink.

For optimal results, we recommend taking your full two-tablespoon daily dose all at once, preferably in the evening, with or without food

Each two-tablespoon serving of GLOW contains a full 11 grams of Premium Collagen Peptides

For best results, we recommend taking two tablespoons of GLOW liquid supplement drink each day.

(However, with even just one spoonful per day, you can see benefits to your skin)

No!

Tranont GLOW is not a collagen powder. Instead, it's a liquid supplement ready to drink straight out of the bottle.

That means no fussing with blenders, no struggling with trying to get it to dissolve, and absolutely no lumps.

Yes

Return your bottle of Tranont GLOW unopened within 30 days of purchase for a full refund (minus shipping and handling and a 10% restocking fee)

For the absolute best results, in addition to taking your Tranont GLOW supplement daily, you may want to limit the environmental and lifestyle choices that damage or disrupt collagen.

That means

• maintaining healthy amounts of exposure to the sun (while using sunscreen to protect from UV rays)
• limiting your blue light exposure
• avoiding cigarette and tobacco smoke and other pollutants
• eating a healthy, balanced diet that is low in inflammatories like refined sugar
• limiting alcohol consumption
• partaking in regular exercise
• managing stress
