How should I take marine collagen?

How much should you take?

Follow the serving stated by the manufacturer. Powders and shots commonly provide around 5-15 g of collagen per day, while capsules usually provide considerably less. Do not increase the dose on your own.

How to take different formats

• Powder. Mix a serving into a glass of water, coffee, tea, juice, smoothie or protein shake. Hydrolysed collagen can dissolve in both cold and hot drinks.
• Shots. Drink the full shot. The bottle can be shaken before opening.
• Capsules and tablets. Take with water. Several capsules may be required to reach the serving stated on the product.

When should you take it?

Morning, afternoon or evening - choose the time that is most convenient. Consistency is more important, for example taking collagen each day at the same time with a regular drink.

What can it be combined with?

Collagen is often taken with vitamin C because vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation. If your product does not contain it, vitamin C can come from food or a separate supplement.

Who should speak to a doctor?

Marine collagen is not suitable for people with fish or seafood allergies. Speak to a doctor during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with kidney disease or if you take medication regularly.
