She didn’t mean to start a movement. All Thamires wanted was a supplement that worked.

After settling into her new life in the United States, the Brazilian chef and wellness enthusiast quickly realized that something was missing, not just in her kitchen, but in the supplement aisle.

She had grown up in Brazil, where collagen supplementation was a normal part of beauty and aging well. But here, she found bottle after bottle of products that seemed more like marketing than science, half-complete formulas dressed up with buzzwords and broken promises.

What she didn’t know then was that this frustration would spark the beginning of something much bigger.

Today, that spark is known as Leblon Nutrition, a collagen brand that’s turning heads, not with hype, but with real results, real science, and a refreshingly honest approach to wellness.

Where It All Began: From Frustration to Innovation

Thamires wasn’t alone in her collagen confusion. Millions of people, especially women, across the U.S. are using collagen supplements every day without realizing the formulas they’re trusting are largely incomplete.

Yes, most products contain collagen peptides, but as she knew from her own background and family traditions in Brazil, peptides alone are not enough. They’re just the raw materials.

What your body needs is the full construction crew: enzymes, co-factors, antioxidants, minerals, and the tools to build, restore, and protect your collagen.

For two years, she paid out of pocket to ship Brazil’s advanced collagen blends to her loved ones in the States. Friends started asking for refills. Then coworkers. Then acquaintances. The demand was growing faster than she could manage, and that’s when her husband, a U.S. military veteran with a deep love for health and wellness, stepped in.

Together, they founded Leblon Nutrition, a family-owned brand born out of personal need, cultural insight, and a determination to set a new standard in the collagen space.

Why Most Collagen Products Don’t Work

Let’s break this down with a little honesty.

You’ve probably seen the promises, “Glow from within!” “Look 10 years younger!” is plastered across collagen jars at your local health food store.

Many of these formulas fall short because they’re missing one crucial detail: your body doesn’t absorb and use collagen peptides efficiently.

Think of it like this: giving your body collagen peptides without the cofactors and enzymes it needs is like dropping off wood at a construction site but leaving the builders, tools, and blueprints behind. Nothing gets built.

That’s the missing link Leblon Nutrition addresses.

In addition to providing supplemental collagen, their Hydrolyzed Collagen Powder stimulates collagen production and protection mechanisms in the body.

The Leblon Difference: A 360° Approach to Collagen

Doing things halfway is not something Leblon believes in. That is why their approach when creating Leblon Nutrition’s Collagen Supplement rests on these three fundamental principles:

Stimulate Natural Collagen Production: At the heart of their product is Verisol® Bioactive Collagen Peptides, clinically studied and proven to:

• Improve skin elasticity

• Reduce fine lines and wrinkles

• Strengthen hair and nails

Leblon goes beyond. They combine the peptides with essential minerals and vitamins to speed up your body’s collagen production. Vitamin C, zinc, and biotin are not frills, but rather fundamental components.

Protect the Collagen You Already Have: Collagen isn’t just about creation; it’s about preservation. Environmental stressors like UV rays, pollution, and a poor diet accelerate collagen breakdown. That’s why Leblon’s formula includes potent antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds. These ingredients act like a shield, protecting your existing collagen from degradation.

Support Full-Body Benefits: You might come for glowing skin, but you’ll stay for how your joints feel, how your hair grows, and how your nails stop breaking. Leblon’s collagen powder goes beyond beauty, supporting:

• Joint mobility

• Skin hydration

• Hair thickness and strength

• Nail resilience

• Gut health (yes, really, collagen supports gut lining integrity)

This is collagen for the whole body, not just your reflection in the mirror.

A Brazilian-Inspired Formula, Made in the USA

Leblon Nutrition isn’t interested in fads. Their product is a blend of time-honored wisdom and cutting-edge science, combining what Thamires knew from her Brazilian upbringing with what the latest research confirms about collagen metabolism.

Manufactured in the United States, Leblon’s formula is:

• Non-GMO

• Free from fillers and artificial additives

• Third-party tested for purity and potency

• Flavor-neutral for easy mixing into coffee, smoothies, or water

In a world full of glittery packaging and vague claims, this is a brand rooted in reality, transparent about its ingredients, intentional with its formulations, and passionate about empowering people to feel their best.

Your Skin Is Talking. Are You Listening?      

Here’s something most people don’t realize: you start losing collagen in your mid-20s. By the time you hit your 40s, your body could be producing 25% less than it used to.

That decline doesn’t just affect how you look; it impacts how you move, how your skin recovers, how your joints feel, and how your body heals. And it’s not just age.

Sun exposure, stress, poor sleep, sugar, and smoking all speed up collagen loss.

But here’s the good news: it’s not a one-way street.

With the right support, your body can reignite its collagen factory. That’s what Leblon is here to do, not just to add peptides to your diet, but to give your system the full map and materials it needs to rebuild from within.

Wellness Tip: Collagen Works Best with Lifestyle Support

Collagen supplements are powerful, but they’re not magic pills. For best results, Leblon recommends:

• Staying hydrated: Collagen thrives in water-rich environments.

• Avoiding excessive sugar: Sugar attaches to collagen and weakens its structure.

• Protecting your skin from the sun: UV rays are collagen’s kryptonite.

• Getting enough sleep: This is when your body does its repair work.

• Pairing collagen with vitamin C-rich foods like citrus, berries, and leafy greens to amplify effects

This isn’t just about a supplement; it’s about giving your body a chance to stay vibrant, mobile, and resilient for the long haul.

Backed by Purpose, Driven by Results

For Thamires and her husband, Leblon isn’t just a brand. It’s a reflection of their values. It’s a love letter to tradition, to science, to health, and to everyone tired of being sold “miracles” that don’t deliver.

They set out to make a collagen product that works. One that respects your time, your money, and your intelligence. One that helps you understand what your body needs, and gives it to you.

The testimonials pouring in are a testament to that mission:

“Within two weeks, I noticed my skin looked plumper and more hydrated.”

“My knees haven’t felt this good in years.”

“My nails finally stopped breaking!”

People aren’t just buying collagen, they’re experiencing transformation.

Not Just a Product, A Wellness Philosophy
