How often should I take collagen 10000mg?

Collagen supplements are a great way to hold back the early signs of ageing. This could be visible signs like wrinkles or sagging skin. It also includes invisible things like stiff joints or loss of bone density. Whatever the case, a good collagen supplement can help. Collagen 10000mg (or 10 grams) is a healthy dosage of collagen peptides to get from your supplement, but how often should you take it?

In this post, we will explore what makes up the collagen content in your supplement and what the science tells us about dosages. At Kollo, we want to ensure you get the very best results from your supplements. So we aim to give you all the information you need.

Why do we use collagen peptides in Kollo?

When it comes to collagen supplementation, collagen peptides are a no-brainer as the collagen content. There is a simple reason for this. If supplements used complete collagen molecules, the collagen couldn't enter the bloodstream efficiently.

Let’s unpack that a little bit. The collagen we use for supplements comes from animals. In the case of Kollo, it originates from the skin and scales of fish. That collagen is a protein that is abundant in the bodies of many animals as well as humans. It provides structure and good health to many tissues throughout the body.

Proteins consist of chains of amino acids, and it is these that we need in our bodies to stimulate the production of new collagen. The problem is that complete collagen molecules are too large for our digestive systems to absorb efficiently. The molecular weight of a collagen molecule is around 300,000 Daltons. This is a lot, so our bodies would have to work very hard to break them down before accessing the amino acids. That means that bioavailability of collagen molecules is very low.

Hydrolysed collagen 10000mg

To address this issue, we break the complete collagen molecules down into collagen peptides. What this means is unravelling the triple helix of the collagen molecule, leaving the three separated chains of amino acids.

We do this using a process called hydrolysis. It breaks down the molecules using a combination of water and enzymes (or chemicals, in some cases). The collagen peptides tend to have a molecular weight of between 2000 and 5000 Daltons. This is far smaller than the size of the complete collagen molecule.

Consequently, collagen peptides are far more bioavailable and enter the bloodstream very efficiently. Once in your system, the amino acids trigger and fuel the creation of new collagen in your body. This helps improve the health and structure of various tissues in the body, including:

  • Skin

  • Bones

  • Tendons and ligaments

  • Cartilage

  • Muscles

  • Organs

  • Blood vessels

This is why we use collagen peptides in Kollo. We want to ensure maximum efficiency for collagen production in your body, so hydrolysed collagen is the answer.

Why hydrolysed collagen 10000mg?

The next question is why we choose a dosage of 10000mg for our collagen shots. The answer is that we followed the science. There has been plenty of research into the different benefits of collagen supplementation. This has led to various conclusions about the requisite dosage to achieve certain benefits.

Let’s take a look at what the studies have found:

  • Skin elasticity: studies show that a dosage of 2.5-5 grams of collagen peptides can begin showing benefits for skin elasticity in as little as 8 weeks.

  • Skin hydration: the research indicates that a 10-gram dosage can lead to improvements in skin hydration after around 56-84 days.

  • Improved nail health: 2.5 grams of collagen can lead to improvements in nail growth and brittleness after approximately 24 weeks.

  • Reduced joint pain: 8 grams of collagen is enough to lead to improvements in joint pain for sufferers of osteoarthritis in a time period of 24 weeks.

  • Increased bone density: in a study involving postmenopausal women, a dosage of 5 grams over 12 months led to improvements in bone density.

This is just a small sample of the studies that exist. But all have indicated under controlled conditions that people can benefit from collagen supplementation. These benefits generally relate to fighting the early signs of ageing, so they can make you look and feel younger for longer.

We compiled the results of all these studies. Our conclusion was an optimal dosage of hydrolysed collagen 10000mg (10 grams) to cover all the potential benefits possible. When developing Kollo, we followed the science when making every decision. The experience of our team and the feedback from countless collagen supplement users were other key factors. We aimed to create the ideal collagen supplement.

So how often should I take hydrolysed collagen 10000mg?

There was one feature that was common to every scientific study into collagen peptide supplementation. It was the frequency that one needs to take the dosage in question. The simple answer is that you need to take 10 grams of collagen every single day. The time periods in which people experience the benefits may vary somewhat for different people as everyone’s body is a little different. But we all should be taking our supplement every single day.

The reason for this is simple. We need to keep supplying our bodies with the nutrients they need consistently. This enables collagen synthesis to happen efficiently. The most important amino acids in collagen peptides for triggering collagen production in our bodies are:

  • Glycine

  • Proline

  • Hydroxyproline

These amino acids are abundant in collagen peptides. You can get them from other sources, but not in the same quantity as they are available from a collagen supplement. By providing this daily fuel for your collagen production, you keep your producing new collagen consistently. In turn, this will replenish the levels in your body and restore a more youthful look and feel to your body.

How long do I need to keep taking collagen 10000mg for?

The different benefits of collagen supplementation take different amounts of time to materialise. We mentioned that these timeframes may differ somewhat for different people. But they give a rough, research-backed idea of how long it might take to enjoy the benefits of your hydrolysed collagen 10000mg intake.

However, once these benefits begin to arrive, you should continue taking your daily dose of collagen peptides. Your body will naturally produce less and less collagen as you age. Collagen supplementation is all about fighting back against this. Your skin, joints or other parts of your body may become healthier from taking collagen supplements. This is a sign that you should keep taking them for the long haul if you want those benefits to last.

Collagen supplementation cannot stop ageing from taking place, but it can hold it back and help to minimise its impact. Combine it with a healthy lifestyle and taking good care of your skin, joints, bones, muscles and more. It may help you look and feel younger than your years for the long-term.
