Mum says she’s made £10million in three years from pigs’ trotters and chicken feet – The Sun

A MUM says she has made £10million in three years from pigs’ trotters.

Maxine Laceby overhauled her lifestyle on nearing 50, making broth from collagen-rich pig parts and chicken’s feet.

When pals in Wolverhampton said her skin was “glowing” and her hair “shinier”, she made the stock in bulk.

Maxine, 53, said: “I had massive vats of it at home, like a white witch.”

She now runs Absolute Collagen with her two daughters and has 15,000 customers worldwide.

She said: "I’d have friends banging on my door for my booty!"

Maxine soon became known as the 'local collagen dealer' – before deciding to launch her business on a grander scale.

Rather the using pig's trotters and chicken's feet – both rich in collagen – the firm now uses liquid marine collagen, from cold water fish – normally using scales and skin to created the collagen-rich supplement.

The supplement, which users can mix into hot drink or simply drink as it is, fights signs of ageing, ironing out wrinkles and improving the quality of the skin, hair and nails.

She said that anyone could start a business – even at the age of 50 – adding: "So many people feel they have nowhere to go once their children have flown the nest, but 50 is young nowadays."
