It feels like this discussion missed the point of why people are interested / asking about collagen supplementation specifically. It's not about muscle (lol), it's primarily about skin elasticity. Secondarily, sure, joints and cartilage. Focusing the collagen discussion on muscle looks like an instance of unrecognized attention bias...

@MarmaladeINFP Месяц назад

I agree. Most other discussions on collagen are rarely about muscle. It doesn't appear to be the typical concern for most people, at least when thinking about collagen. I work out and yet I think collagen is irrelevant for my own muscle building. I'm more focused on using collagen for joint health. There is a lot of info about this aspect. But these kinds of Youtbue channels tend to be inordinately obsessed about muscles.

I get that correlation does not imply causation however, still being able to perform 5x5 conventional dead lifts at twice my body weight once a week without any joint issues, is enough evidence for me.

Biggest value of collagen is the glycine content which helps balance sulfur based inflammatory aminoacids responsible for growth found in muscle meat. If you are an omnivore and eat nose to tail you get plenty of gelatin & collagen, if you eat lean muscle meats only, some supplemental collagen can help

@davin8r Месяц назад

There are specific dipeptides and tripeptides in collagen which are absorbed intact and have specific biologic effects, therefore it's not just source of glycine.

Dr. Attia's wife's friends are asking about collagen for skin and anti-aging benefits most probably. I have seen multiple videos done by dermatologists and plastic surgeons talking about research showing skin benefits. So that's why I take collagen supplements and do notice a benefit. I do also notice a benefit for my joints. I would love to see more information on research for collagen and joint health.

I was diagnosed with arthritis in my hands a couple of years ago. It wasn’t deemed serious at the time, but, since I work with my hands I wanted to be proactive. I’ve tried a few different things like turmeric, glucosamine etc. then I found a collagen supplement with added protein in a powder form. I started adding it to my protein shakes and it has worked better than anything else I’ve tried.

Broke my fibula and needed surgery…..was already in good shape with exercise and nutrition going into the injury, then I upped the nutrition to include adding grass fed bone broth daily (21 grams) mixed with 11 grams of my normal chocolate whey….sometimes twice a day. I was walking in the boot 3 weeks post surgery and resumed biking. At 5 weeks I was out of the boot at home and by week 6 was totally out of the boot and starting to run/walk. Now beginning week 10, I’m running 15 miles per week easy plus continuing the work on the bike….and I am pushing 50. Docs originally said I should t even think about running until week 12. Did mainlining the collagen help in the healing process? Don’t know….but put my experience into the positive results column for collagen. Can’t wait to get more science on this…..

Is it possible to count the Collagen protein if one adds things such as hemp hearts or pumpkin seeds to complete the protein in a smoothie for example? The Cronometer app seems to indicate so but i might be completely missing the point. I do consume plenty of animal proteins on a daily basis but am hoping to increase my daily protein intake in terms of 'grams' with a modified collagen smoothie as described above.

I’m kind of surprised nothing was mentioned about isotope marker collagen where the peptides dies indeed end up in connective tissue to a larger extent than other protein sources. I believe these were measured over a longer time period also.

@MoodMindMemory Месяц назад

not a good way to characterize the impact of collagen and its ability to improve connective tissue response or for that matter the impact on myofibular response. The better question is to ask is whether distinct collagen peptides (often referred to as bio functional collagen peptide) effective at improving connective tissue/myofibular response. Data shows that the molecular wt measured in daltons impacts the bioactive response of various connective tissues and is characterize via the dalton wt.. Working more as a signaling molecule similar to a DAMP, not via mTORC,

In simple terms it makes sense that your body is what you feed it. So if I feed it connective tissue, it makes sense that would help in rebuilding my own connective tissues. Ancient people knew this, that is why they would make use of the whole animal, not just the muscles flesh like we do today.

@keithyoung8994 Месяц назад

If you look at the research by Keith Barr he has shown that taking collagen with vitamin C 30 minutes before a 5 minute session of skip rope significant increases tendon thickness. The thickening of tendon is dependant on bloodflow into the connective tissue. So taking collagen prior to exercise will allow for the peptide to be in the bloodstream and the exercise increases blood flow to the area it is needed. Then vitamin C aids in converting type 1 or 2 collagen into one another as required. Vitamin C is a known requirement for collagen synthesis.

So you can stop right after the statement "we don't know" lol. Seems like it's something you just have to try for several months and see if it does anything for you. Some folks claim it does, others no. Maybe it depends on your body and how much and what type collagen you are taking. Anyways no one currently has the answer of does it actually do anything or not. But at least it seems certain it does no harm.

@borisp9499 Месяц назад

I don't believe that collagen supplementation helps skin/wrinkles for obvious reason. Specifically, vegetarians eat zero dietary collagen as the only food source is animal product. So if lack of dietary collagen made a difference, then we should be able to easily identify a vegetarian just based on their skin. However, ask any dermatologist if they can tell a vegetarian just by looking at their skin and they can't. That means having zero dietary collagen has no negative impact. As such, I think taking dietary collagen supplementation should have no impact either.

@MarmaladeINFP Месяц назад

The only potential downside to collagen supplementation is that anything industrially processed can be high in deuterium. And excess deuterium can harm numerous areas of health, particularly causing mitochondrial dysfunction, and leading to premature aging. The problem is no products on the market, other bottled water, ever informs consumers of their deuterium content. Your collagen powder might be low deuterium or high deuterium, and there is no way for you to know, unless you send it to a lab for testing.

@Caferramarta Месяц назад

Unfortunately this apply to every single food or supplement in the market. Sadly even in our produce we can’t really know what’s going on a mineral/toxic component levels. That’s why my take on it is variety and moderation with EVERYTHING. Even if I do take collagen (according to the latest studies the peptides version gives the amino acids coming from collagen unique features) I do it intermittently and I always change brand every cycle. But that’s my approach according to my knowledge. Not saying it’s THE WAY.

I don't understand why otherwise health-conscious people fail to regard protein powder as the ultra processed food that it is. It is very easy to habituate to ingest enough high quality protein from food. As an example, on a typical day I will easily obtain about 200g of protein from 4 eggs, an additional 4 yolks, 1 lbs of beef, a mackerel fillet, 1 cup of greek yogurt, couple oz cheese. All these foods are packed with high quality nutrition beyond the protein. Why eat factory produced powder from a can?

When i take Collagen i started having joint pains. When i stopped it went away. So for me Collagen supps are a no. If you eat protein you get enough Collagen.

It sounds like if you consume enough complete protein in your diet you don’t need it

And if you exercise as it stimulates collagen production. But as it was mentioned it can be of value to individuals who have chronic ligament injuries or unable to exercise properly.

How much protein you are mentioning here & what about your arteries, are they all good? Your cholesterol levels? They work together, I do my blood tests regularly and my arteries are a little blocked % 25, So choosing the correct protein, I must be very careful. I'm 69 years of age. NMN opened one of my blocked "soft calcified arteries around my neck if the Doppler result was corrected at that time🙏 I still believe in the miracle of NMN & Resveratrol in my life. Wish you all the best 🙏🌹

Collagen supplements definitely work. I take 25g of marine collagen per day and my bad Back has improved considerably, not to mention I now have hair like Sampson
