Collagen is an abundant structural protein made from long chains of amino acids. It’s present in your skin, bones, muscles and connecting tissues where it provides strength and elasticity.
Hydrolysed collagen has been treated with enzymes to break its long amino acid chains into small sections called peptides. This helps it pass through your gut wall and means that the amino acids are ready for your body to use without a lengthy digestion process.
Collagen supplements provide a dietary source of amino acids in the form of collagen proteins or peptides. Once digested and absorbed into your bloodstream, the amino acids can be used to build new collagen proteins or repair old ones.
Yes, collagen is good for you; some studies suggest that having an abundant supply of amino acids may combat the collagen loss that comes with ageing. Specifically, it may boost collagen levels in the skin, improve skin hydration and even reduce wrinkle volume by 20%. Research has also shown that it may also reduce stiffness and pain for those who suffer from some forms of osteoarthritis.
Collagen supplements are considered generally safe for most people; however, some have reported mild side effects, including a bad taste in their mouth, stomach discomfort or diarrhoea.
As with any food supplement, the manufacturing processes and ingredients can vary from brand to brand. Some may contain allergens; marine-sourced powders will contain fish or shellfish.
The best collagens are marine-sourced from fish or shellfish and bovine-sourced from cattle:
Collagen types I, II and III are the best because they’re the most abundant and can provide the broadest range of benefits. Type I and III both provide strength and elasticity to your skin, ligaments, and bones. Type II is found in animal/fish cartilage and connective tissue. Most standard bovine or marine products aren't made with cartilage but those specifically aimed at joint health are. This will be made clear on the product label.
Some products also include boosters to aid collagen production. The most well-known of these is vitamin C.
The most common types of collagen products are capsules, powder, and drinks:
You can also buy vegan collagen, produced using recombinant microorganisms, or as a blend of nutrients that are essential to collagen production.
A daily measure of between 2.5g to 15g of collagen peptides has been found to be safe and effective. However, up to 5g is sufficient for most uses, including to support skin and joint health.
