Interview with Mélanie
Why Pur Collagène+ Arthro Récup?
When I started working at La Boite à Grainsa colleague told me about the benefits of collagen, as I was complaining about dry hair and brittle nails. I tried products from other companies, then discovered New Roots Herbal's Pure Collagen+ Arthro Récup, which is also good for joint health.
I'm a runner, and it helps me a lot with recovery and joints. I saw an improvement and felt the benefits in my skin, hair and nails quite quickly, after a few weeks.
What's your routine with this product?
I take it every day, adding a scoop to my smoothie, or in a glass of water or fruit juice. Sometimes I also add it to my coffee with MCT oil. The great thing about Pur Collagène+ Arthro Récup is that it's unflavored, so it's easy to incorporate into all kinds of beverages.
Let's talk about healthy eating. What does it mean to you?
First and foremost, vegetables. I wouldn't see my life without vegetables. I try to incorporate healthy fats and proteins, and I get my carbohydrates from fruit. I always prioritize organic whenever possible.
Do you cook at home?
Yes, I try to cook more at home. I like to venture out and try new recipes when I get the chance. The La Boite à Grains site is a great source of inspiration, and all the recipes are good so far!
Do you have any other healthy habits to share?
I do a lot of running. Lately, I've been training intensely to prepare for the Ottawa half-marathon. I also hike, do yoga, go to the gym... I have a friend who tells me "in life, you either get moving or you get rusty" and I'm a big believer in that. It's important to move and be active.
Thank you Mélanie for sharing your passion with us!
