Thankfully, our sourcing team managed to secure a substantial surplus of our specially crafted
collagen formula shortly before government-mandated lockdowns were enforced across the nation.
This is fantastic news, especially because I consider collagen to be the top whole-food supplement
to stock up on right now, given the current focus on health and immunity.
But how much collagen do you actually need to take to enjoy its tissue-repairing and
immune-boosting benefits?
According to research references, a daily dose of 6 grams (equivalent to two retail-sized
scoop) is recommended for maintaining collagen levels. However, for older individuals whose
collagen levels have already dropped significantly, their starting point is far below normal.
That's why I suggest people over 50 double their dose, a method known as "collagen loading," to
replenish their deficit and fully experience the range of health advantages. Doubling the dose, or
taking four scoops a day instead of just one, effectively rebuilds lost collagen and helps the
body overcome the age-related deficiency.
Clinical studies indicate that it takes anywhere from 8 weeks to 12 months of daily collagen
use to achieve optimal results. Many of my patients have found ongoing success with the loading
dose, ensuring that collagen levels remain elevated over the long term.
It's no surprise that many collagen users order large quantities at once. The true benefits
of collagen emerge when it's taken consistently day after day and month after month.
In simple terms, collagen is not a "miracle supplement" but rather a valuable addition to your
daily routine for long-lasting health benefits.
