Are you taking the right dose of Collagen?


How much Collagen should one take each day? The answer depends on your goals. Whether you would like a glowing complexion, strengthening joints and bone, or reducing hair fall

Collagen peptides are extremely safe and you should feel comfortable taking a 5 gm scoop per day to support strong and healthy hair, skin, nails, and joints. This is a great amount to start with and to also get your body acquainted to Collagen supplements. It is also the perfect amount to maintain your skin, hair, nails, muscles, gut and joints. Take it along with other protein supplements like whey, plant protein powder, and food-based proteins for a complete array of amino acids and other nutrients.

Skin:-

One 5gm scoop is the perfect dosage to maintain healthy skin. Collagen peptides are absorbed intact by the intestines and then transported directly to the skin. They remain there for up to 2 weeks, improving your skin’s appearance, moisture, and elasticity. If you’re going for glowing skin, try INJA Marine Collagen, which is especially high in type I Collagen, the one associated with anti-aging. When Collagen peptides are fortified with additional ingredients, like vitamin c. glutathione and evening primrose oil, they are most likely to work better for your skin.

Hair:-

One 5 gm scoop daily is great for increased hair growth. People who are recovering from health related issues like hypothyroidism, cancer or postpartum hair fall, can take up to 10 grams per day.


Nails:-

Some of the earliest signs that most people see are faster growing nails, followed by stronger and less brittle nails. Taking 5 grams of Collagen per day is perfect if you find that your nails tend to grow slowly or break easily.


Muscle:-

Muscle mass and strength decrease as we age. To increase muscle while losing fat, try 15g of Collagen peptides per day. We love adding a scoop to our morning coffee, ½ scoop to all three meals, or ⅔ scoop to our soup at lunch and another ⅔ to our post-workout whey protein shake.


Joints and Bone:-

Due to menopause, many women are susceptible to osteoarthritis or osteoporosis. Frequent high intensity workouts can also cause joint damage in the long run, especially around the knee caps and shoulders. The recommended dosage for bone metabolism and mineralization is 10 grams of Collagen. Look for additional ingredients like Glucosamine HCL and Vitamin D3 that will help your bones and joints even further.


Gut health:-

Leaky gut syndrome, IBS and other digestive issues can wreak havoc on your intestinal lining. Collagen peptides can help rebuild it with a daily dosage of 10 grams.
Listen to your body. If a higher or lower dose shows remarkable results, stick to it. There are factors like weight, age, activity levels that will need a higher or a lower dose accordingly. You may want to consider taking more if you notice that your skin and nails aren’t looking as good as they used to. You can also combine higher amounts of Collagen with whey protein if you’re trying to build muscle, or if you’re working out extra hard and want to keep the inflammation in your joints at bay. Consult your physician or a nutritionist to find the correct dosage that will give you truly let you reap the benefits of Collagen
