The Truth About Collagen Supplements | What’s That Rash?

8.25 mins. Where the videos starts. Ps: Answer is 'not sure'

Thanks 😉

[@LIZZIE-lizzie]

Thank you ‼️

This is the first video I watched from your channel, because I was recommended it. I love it! Clear, concise explanations, and intelligent questions.👍 And to add empirical evidence about the influence of environmental factors vs exercising on collagen: my 70-yo mother was a PE teacher and has been physically active and strong and lean pretty much every day of her life. She has also been an avid sun lover. At 40, she already had very deep wrinkles everywhere in her face. She was and is still beautiful, I’ve always thought it gave her a very cool characteristic look. Sadly it has always been a big insecurity of hers. But apparently, all the sun exposure did more harm to her face than her physical exercise did good.

I previously took collagen powder, despite it costing between $70 and $80 a month. Since your feature on the ABC listen app, I realised over 2-3 years of use hadn't caused much change. Any visible improvement was due to a regular skincare routine, eating well, and other factors. (I have very fair skin. It's very dry & dehydrated as a side effect of multiple prescription medications). My skin has always been very sensitive (reactive and prone to rashes, especially when under stress). It requires considerable attention. I initially became concerned when going through menopause as that is renowned for creating thinner skin with less elasticity, plus symptoms that I already had becoming more severe, mainly due to lower density, eg oil production & hydration levels decreasing with age, causing higher sensitivity in some respects. My skin has not suffered from the lack of collagen powder, fortunately. I enjoy listening to What's the Rash, but probably prefer watching you. You're quite entertaining 😉 Keep up the good work, Moira

not only for women. bodybuilders use the stuff too.

I buy melatonin regularly off a US based supplement supplier, completely safe. The psychiatrist i worked with recommended it to many of his patients, he even had one lot tested due to concerns about purity from patients. Completely legitimate as advertised. I've been very happy with it & use it regularly. Also, you can now buy melatonin over the counter from chemists now in Australia, but only 2mg & expensive. Most adults need around 5mg.

I know a good GP that wrote a script for a drug that wasn’t through the pharmacy and a short while after the place was raided and shut down 😳

[@DopeBoysofatlanta]

What does GP mean?

[@ABCScience]

General practitioner doctor.

Endermologie promotes collagen and elastin! It’s one of the best treatments a person can do

He Kees saying he avoids “social”… but he’s on a PODCAST, on KZbin!? I don’t have an IG or Facebook or X, but I get my news and TV from Yourube. I’m not on social either buddy, but here we are… on social lol 🌟

[@whophd]

Yeah nah. Podcasts and KZbin aren’t social - they’re not interactive. Social media is where everybody talks to each other - not a one way conversation. These two are more like 100-year-old radio broadcasting. If he got into the comments section here then yes. Podcasts are never social media - it may be confusing because they arrived at the same time as Web 2.0 and iPods.

[@cindyheadon9005]

😂 He's that far up himself.

[@sarahstyles6859]

You can use KZbin for work without interacting with anyone on social media.

What about people who are truly allergic to milk? Or people with Alpha Gal who can't eat any mammal products and those who have EDS?

[@JackieJourdain-i4y]

Cool video!

[@cassieoz1702]

As an older woman, I've never seen collagen supplements marketed directly to me

[@JaneAustenAteMyCat]

I have!

[@Нфт-ц8и]

Me neither, it’s more for health conscious young fit people it seems

[@MadmanDKDK]

Because most people that aren't Gen Z knows that you can't use collagen for anything, and it definitely won't help you "regenerate" your joints. And we're just generally smarter than anyone born 1995 and forward.

[@cassieoz1702]

@Нфт-ц8и perhaps 'product conscious, young fit people' is more accurate 😉

[@whophd]

I wonder if you’ll get them now that Google knows you said the two words in a comment system they own

[@elebenty5709]

Funny the dairy is especially good for the skin, as some women used to wash their faces in milk and buttermilk.

[@JaneAustenAteMyCat]

Absolutely fascinating, thank you. I bought some collagen tablets, but I'm not convinced it's doing anything. After watching this I'm not going to buy any more, but I will finish the bottle. More yoga for me. Cheers!

[@commitmenttoexcellence]

she interupt too much

[@necromanticer169]

So many equivocal non-answers... I wish you'd just present the facts relevant to the question asked rather than flitting between whatever buzzy set of facts seem good to present. I was hoping for information about what collagen is, how it functions as a part of your body/especially the skin, and how ingesting supplements affects those facts. Instead this is a marketing interview trying to cram in buzzwords and confuse the topic with disparate facts. Really useless and insulting video to release.

[@whophd]

There’s nothing wrong with being equivocal if “there’s not strong evidence” is the truth. I notice we haven’t learned anything, any new science, trom your comment. Would you like to contribute? You are implying you know a lot on this area. Please choose a statement in the video and respond to it.

[@necromanticer169]

@whophd I don't know why you think I'm informed when I explained that I came here hoping to become informed. I think it's bad practice to publish "The Truth About..." anything and not provide clear answers or information. It's a bait and switch designed to sticker in the curious and keep them preoccupied with buzz words and non-answers.

[@Kaillyne]

Did we watch the same video? I'm not sure what else you were looking for with those questions, but he clearly explained that collagen is a type of protein created by fibroblast cells, from 2 amino acids (I don't remember their complicated names) with the help of vitamin C. The creation of collagen is teiggered by exercise and the intake of the ingredients the body needs to create them. They are located around and (in case of muscle loss) in place of your muscles. Only about 10% of supplements are absorbed by the body, which does not make much difference compared to the right lifestyle choices. For example, milk has the amino acids needed for collagen production (you also need vitamin C from fruits/veggies), which may be more effective than straight-up collagen. Smoking, sun damage, inhaling smog will all damage the collagen creation process so better to stay away from those. 50-70% of how much collagen your body can produce (based on the quantity of your fibroblast cells) is determined by genetics. He gave answers to everything based on the current research available, of course he won't say anything that is not backed by science yet, like the face massage thing she asked.

Meanwhile she has botox.
