The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.
if I would actually break my hip or I would actually have a major issue with my knee and I'm recovering and rehabilitating I think I would take uh both a protein supplement that also has a little bit of collagen in order to be sure that I get enough Glycine and protein yeah
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
Hydrolyzed collagen powder has been shown to go to cartilage/joints & play a role in repair/healing.
Clinical studies have found supplementing with hydrolyzed collagen may show promise for skin aging, decreasing joint pain due to arthritis or athletic injury, improving bone health, and more.
but yeah I have to admit that the muscle fraction is only very small amount of collagen so what about other tissues cartilage bone tendons ligaments which is more than 80% collagen maybe there it's more relevant and maybe even more relevant when you had surgery and you basically yourself you have to reattach everything you have to renew all those collagen structures maybe there it is a benefit
But that said, when you go to the end of the story, it does seem to be doing stuff for connective tissue and ligaments.
