Here are our most popular FAQs about taking hydrolyzed collagen:
1. What is hydrolyzed collagen, and how does it benefit me?
Hydrolyzed collagen is broken down into smaller, easily absorbed peptides (also known as collagen peptides). It supports healthier skin, stronger nails, shinier hair, gut health, bone/joint and muscle health by boosting your body's natural collagen production (which starts to dwindle after age 30 naturally)
2. How should I take hydrolyzed collagen for best results?
Hydrolyzed collagen is super versatile, and it can be mixed into water, coffee, smoothies, other beverages, yoghurt, pancakes, and more! It's most effective when taken daily but can be consumed at any time of day.
3. How long does it take to see results from hydrolyzed collagen?
Results vary, but most people notice improvements in skin hydration, nail strength, hair texture and improved gut health after 4 to 8 weeks of regular use.
4. When is the best time to take collagen, morning or night?
We suggest both for the best results, though some people take it once daily and often in the morning in their coffee or other beverages. Taking it at night, though, can help to improve your sleep as it's a great source of protein and essential amino acids!
5. Can I take hydrolyzed collagen with other supplements?
Yes, hydrolyzed collagen can be safely taken with most other supplements. However, it's always a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional before combining supplements, especially if you have specific health concerns.
6. Is hydrolyzed collagen suitable for vegetarians or vegans?
Most hydrolyzed collagen supplements are derived from animal sources, such as bovine or marine collagen, making them unsuitable for vegetarians or vegans. Plant-based alternatives exist, but they are not the same and will not give you the same results.
7. Can pregnant or breastfeeding women take hydrolyzed collagen?
While hydrolyzed collagen is generally considered safe, pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before starting any new supplement to ensure it's appropriate for their needs.
8. Does hydrolyzed collagen help with joint pain?
Hydrolyzed collagen can support joint health by promoting cartilage repair and reducing inflammation, which may help alleviate joint pain over time. Of course, this is only a potential and not a health claim.
9. Can hydrolyzed collagen help with weight loss?
While hydrolyzed collagen is not a weight loss supplement, it can support overall health and well-being by improving skin elasticity and muscle mass. When combined with a balanced diet and exercise, this may contribute to a healthier body composition.
10. How do I choose the best hydrolyzed collagen supplement?
Look for supplements sourced from high-quality, pasture-raised animals and free from GMOs, glyphosate, antibiotics, hormones, heavy metals, additives, or fillers. Also, check for third-party testing to ensure purity and potency.
