What is collagen and why is it so important?
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body — it makes up about 30% of the total protein. It is literally the "glue" that holds our body together:
- Skin — elasticity, hydration, youthful appearance
- Joints — shock absorption, mobility, reduced inflammation
- Bones — strength and density
- Hair and nails — growth and strength
- Intestines — strength of the intestinal lining
Why does collagen decrease with age?
After the age of 25, our body produces less and less collagen — about 1–1.5% less each year. By the age of 40, the difference is already visible: the first wrinkles appear, joints start to "creak," hair loses its shine and density, and wound healing slows down.
In addition to age, collagen is also broken down by: UV rays, stress, smoking, sugar, and processed foods.
Types of collagen — which one is for you?
Type I — Skin, hair, nails, bones. Ideal for beauty and anti-aging.
Type II — Cartilage and joints. Suitable for active people and joint pain.
Type III — Skin and organs. Usually combined with Type I.
Marine Collagen — High bioavailability for maximum absorption.
How to take collagen correctly?
- Dosage: 5–15 g per day
- When: Morning on an empty stomach or after a workout
- With what: Add Vitamin C — an essential cofactor for collagen synthesis
- Consistency: Results are visible after 4–8 weeks of regular use
Collagen powder vs. capsules vs. shots
Powder — ideal for higher dosage and flexibility. Mixes into coffee, smoothies, or water.
Capsules — convenient for people on the go. Precise dosage without mixing.
Shots — perfect for after a workout. Combine protein, collagen, and hydration in one.
Signs that collagen is working
After 6–8 weeks of regular use, expect: smoother and more hydrated skin, less joint pain, stronger hair, faster recovery after workouts, and improved mobility.
