Collagen supplements are generally not magic bullets with overnight changes in pain, but that doesn't mean we should overlook them. There is some rather interesting research surrounding gelatin and collagen supplements that we shouldn't ignore. Some key points that I discuss with patients:

// make sure you are taking your higher dose collagen (10-20g) away from other protein sources

// it's better to have hydrolyzed collagen sources (meaning it will dissolve in cold liquids as well as hot)

// if you are exercising on a given day, take your collagen peptides about 60 minutes before your workout.

Do you take a collagen supplement?
