All you need to know
Collagen powder or tablets - which is better?
While capsules or pills can work, collagen powder is usually more effective. That’s because it packs in more collagen per serving, so your body and skin gets even more of a boost. It’s also super versatile - it can be loaded with loads of extra goodness for your wellbeing.
How many servings per day?
We recommend one serving per day for a minimum of 8 weeks.
What time of day should I take it?
Another great thing about collagen supplements is how versatile and flexible they are. You can take them any time of the day!
Do I have to take it with food?
Nope! You can enjoy EatProtein’s collagen supplements any time of the day, with or without food, so you can make it fit your daily schedule.
How quickly does collagen work?
You could see the benefits from taking collagen quicker than you think! You could have firmer, fresher skin in just 8 weeks! Likewise, your joints could feel less sore and achy in as little as a couple of months. You could also enjoy improved bone health within a year of taking the supplements.
Can collagen help you lose weight?
Good news if you’re trying to lose weight - collagen can play a part in helping you shed those pounds! Although the science on this is still in its early days, collagen can help make you feel fuller for longer and change the way your body stores fat. And because it can help improve joint pain and bone strength, collagen can also help people be more physically active.
What does 'hydrolyzed' collagen mean?
‘Hydrolized collagen’ sounds a bit complicated but it doesn’t need to be! In its raw form, your body finds it really tough to absorb collagen because the molecules are too big. However, if collagen has been ‘hydrolyzed’, it means that it’s been broken down into smaller pieces through a process called hydrolysis - this makes it easier for the body to absorb and digest it. We’ve already done the hard work, so your body doesn’t have to!
Is this collagen good for wrinkles and signs of ageing?
The collagen in your skin is primarily made up of types 1 and 3 collagen, which is the key component of our collagen juice. There is evidence to show that taking collagen supplements, alongside a healthy lifestyle, can improve skin moisture and elasticity, and reduce wrinkles.
Is marine collagen better?
Marine collagen is a rich source of Type 1 collagen and can have various health benefits. However, EatProtein’s collagen juice is rich in both collagen type 1 and type 3 which appears to also be able to boost the production of type 2 collagen in the body. This means that our collagen juice provides a more complete source of collagen.
Is this Type 1, 2 or 3 collagen?
Our collagen juice contains type 1 and type 3 sources of collagen. There is evidence to suggest that these types can then boost production of type 2 collagen in the body. This gives you a more rich overall collagen combo, helping to improve flexibility, joint strength and skin quality.
