Do Collagen Supplements Work? People Share Their Experience.

[@Jakilyn]

I've been drinking this for a few months and can't believe how soft my face is! My pores are so much smaller and my acne is virtually gone. I also use grapeseed oil and take vitamins. My nails are doing OK, but could be better. The best benefit has been my acne scars reduced

[@JTJaredTaylor]

That's awesome Jakilyn. I'm glad you're seeing positive benefits. Thanks for sharing!

[@marcellef8302]

Thanks for the informative video, JT. I have been using Collagen in my morning coffee for about 6 weeks now. I've noticed an improvement in my joints and my skin already. I'm going to keep taking Collagen to see what other long-term benefits I could get. Take care 🇨🇦

[@JTJaredTaylor]

You're very welcome Marcelle. I'm glad you found the video informative and I'm glad you're seeing positive improvements. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@KirstiCheetahh]

I take a multi collagen (from beef, chicken skin, egg membrane, fish skin), hyaluronic acid, vitamin C and chondroitin.

[@JTJaredTaylor]

Hi Kirsti, sounds like a really good one. What's the brand?

[@BLUEGREEN65]

New to your channel and have liked and subscribed 😊 I’m starting Vital Protein Collagen Peptides tomorrow morning. Looking forward to hopefully seeing some good results.

[@JTJaredTaylor]

Very glad to have you here! Thank you for sharing. I hope you see positive results! Let me know how it goes.

[@MandMgo]

Hydrolyzed is not mentioned on the Vital Proteins unflavored label. I’m assuming it can be found on their website or I’m just missing it.

[@KellyP_]

It definitely WORKS!

[@JTJaredTaylor]

Agreed. 100% Thanks Kelly!

[@valarieannaliza8805]

Glad I watched this!

[@JTJaredTaylor]

Thanks!

[@nexpose1]

I'm just about at the month and a half point. Nails are definitely stronger, faster growth. No change yet for joints, achiness which I REALLY want. Possibly slight skin change but waiting that out. Ultimately not sure my total results since I'm only on marine collagen since I don't eat beef, pork. Using Zen Principle since cost effective and is hydrolyzed.

[@JTJaredTaylor]

Hi Erik, Thanks for sharing your experience. You should be able to get results with marine collagen. For achy joints reducing sugar, processed foods and vegetable oils will make a huge difference if you're not doing that already. Hope that helps.

[@MandMgo]

I agree. I removed sugar and most pain disappeared. Until now I’ve never heard anyone mention this!

[@marthaglatt7268]

Thank you so much ✨❤️✨🙏 I’m so happy I found your channel ❤️✨👍

[@JTJaredTaylor]

You are very welcome. I'm glad to have you here!

[@TheCallyjean]

This has been the most updated well explained video/info on collagen - I WOULD like to know how much collagen do I need to take daily? I’m 62

[@JTJaredTaylor]

Thanks CarolJean! I'm glad you found value in this video. My understanding is between 5 and 10grams is a good place to start. Hope that helps.

[@TheCallyjean]

@@JTJaredTaylor Thank you 😊

[@marcv2648]

20-40 grams a day. It makes up 1/3 of your bodily protein. Chances are you are getting very little in normal cuts of meat.

[@marthaglatt7268]

Love your channel Amazing inf ℹ️ Thank you again ✨❤️✨🙏

[@JTJaredTaylor]

Thank you Martha! I really appreciate it!

[@BrownStarz27]

Is it better to take in the morning ?

[@JTJaredTaylor]

I take it in the morning but it's not necessarily better. Lots of people like to take it at night because they feel it helps them sleep better. Either option is good.

[@BrownStarz27]

what other supplements do you take besides the vital proteins peptides?

[@acdude5266]

It clogged my intestines so bad that I nearly had to go to the ER.

[@JTJaredTaylor]

That's sounds like a horrible experience AC Dude. Sorry to hear it. Thanks for sharing.

[@acdude5266]

@@JTJaredTaylor it was the powder, even when mixed. I think also, people with sensitivities need to cinsider what they eat before and after taking the powdered collagen.

[@theancientsancients1769]

​@@acdude5266I'm sorry to hear that! Maybe it was marine collagen and you are allergic to shellfish?

[@acdude5266]

@@theancientsancients1769 i have had the same issue with protein powder. Pieple with inflammatory intestinal diseases may have problems with powders, particularly, I have noticed at least, when they mix the powders with acids. I might try a pre-mixed formulation to see if it was the powder or the collagen. That is why, with any supplements, it is best to have a baseline health assessment.

[@marcv2648]

That sounds like crazy talk.

[@julianaalvarado-ramirez8590]

JT, will the chocolate flavored Vital Collagen take me out of KETO?

[@JTJaredTaylor]

Hi Juliana, Yes. All collagen supplements have the potential to kick you out of ketosis because the protein is so lean BUT if you add fat when you consume it you can make it work. I've done several review videos and haven't emphasized that enough. I would say try the chocolate but add some heavy cream and see what happens. If your weight loss stops or you start feeling hungry all the time then you know it's kicking you out. Of course you could get a blood meter but if you don't want to do that hunger is your best indicator. Hope that helps.
