FAQ
Find answers to common questions about Collagen, Collaboost® and its products.
Getting Started with Collagen
What is collagen?
Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body. It provides structure, strength and flexibility to your skin, joints, bones, muscles and connective tissues.
Why should I take collagen in and after my 30s?
From your late 20s and early 30s, natural collagen production begins to decline. This can lead to changes in skin firmness, elasticity and hydration, as well as joint comfort and mobility. Supplementing with collagen peptides helps support your body during this natural process.
How do collagen peptides work in your body?
Hydrolyzed collagen (collagen peptides) is broken down into small, easy to absorb, building blocks. Once absorbed, your body can use them to help maintain skin, joints, bones and connective tissue.
Benefits of Collagen
Will collagen make skin look smoother and more hydrated?
Yes, systematic reviews of clinical trials show that daily intake of hydrolyzed collagen can improve skin hydration, elasticity and overall smoothness compared with placebo.
Can collagen support joint comfort, mobility and flexibility?
Research suggests that collagen supplementation can support joint comfort, mobility and flexibility when taken consistently over time.
Will collagen help nails and hair?
Some studies report that collagen may reduce nail brittleness and support stronger growth. Evidence for hair thickness is still emerging, but early findings are promising.
How long does it take to see results from collagen?
Most skin and joint studies last 8 to 12 weeks. Many participants notice visible improvements in hydration, elasticity and mobility within that timeframe when collagen is taken consistently.
How to Take Collagen
How much collagen should I take per day?
While there are no official guidelines, research commonly uses 10 to 15 g per day. This is also what we recommend for visible benefits.
When is the best time of day to take collagen?
You can take collagen at any time convenient to you. What matters most is taking it daily and consistently.
Which type of collagen is best for skin and which for joints?
Type I collagen is the most common in skin, while Type II is concentrated in cartilage for joint health. Our hydrolyzed bovine collagen provides Types I and III, making it versatile for both skin and overall body support.
Can collagen be mixed with hot or cold drinks and foods?
Yes! Collaboost® Hydrolyzed Collagen powder mixes easily, so you can add it into coffee, smoothies, yogurt or anything else without affecting taste or texture.
Safety and Suitability
Is collagen safe to take daily?
Yes, studies consistently find hydrolyzed collagen safe for daily use, if you have a medical condition or take medication, it’s best to consult your healthcare provider just in case.
Are there side effects or allergens to consider with collagen?
Collagen is generally well tolerated. Our collagen comes from 100% grass fed and halal bovine sources, so individuals with related allergies should check with their healthcare professional before using any of our supplements.
Is collagen suitable for vegetarians or vegans?
No, collagen is naturally derived from animals, mainly bovine and fish. Thus, it’s not suitable for vegetarian or vegan diets.

Combining Collagen with Lifestyle
What else helps improve skin while taking collagen?

Medical Considerations
Can I take collagen with my medications?
It’s generally safe, but always check with your healthcare provider if you take prescription medications.
Is collagen safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

You can never be too safe!
