We recommend being 18 years old because our collagen starts to reduce by 1% each year as we enter our early 20’s and it depletes dramatically when we hit our 40’s and 50’s. This is why it is very important and beneficial to start taking collagen at 18 years of age and throughout our adult years. It is known to help slow the aging process, contribute towards preventing your skin from sagging, improve skin elasticity, enhance the overall structure and appearance of skin. Incorporating collagen into your daily diet is also known to help hair and nails stay strong and healthy. It could also help to increase bone mass density, assist with physical recovery and help improve back and knee pain.

It is safe for a teenager of 13 years old to take marine collagen, but due to fish being prominent, a parent should ensure the teenager doesn’t have any allergies. As teenagers are still growing, they are producing collagen naturally, so they wouldn’t see the obvious benefits as much as someone in their adult years. It would not do them any harm and could help keep their bones and joints strong, especially if they are physically active by playing sports, dancing or horse riding etc.

The recommended serving is 2500mg at any one time and this has been scientifically proven. Consuming a higher volume of collagen in one dose could disperse into other parts of your body, but it is likely that your body won’t be able to process the higher volume and remove it, or you may experience symptoms such as feeling overly full or an upset stomach.

Marine collagen can help boost metabolism by increasing lean muscle mass when combined with a healthy diet and exercise. Taking collagen regularly helps increase skeletal muscle resulting in an increased metabolism over time.

When collagen levels are not working at their full capacity your thyroid health can be affected. Although the link is more indirect and it’s through your gut, the thyroid produces two hormones which are known as T3 and T4. One of the ways these hormones work, is that they help to maintain cellular integrity of desmosomes cells that line the small intestine to keep the barrier strong. Taking collagen can help improve the barrier of the gut which can help ease thyroid issues. It is good to incorporate collagen into your diet on a daily basis but we recommend to check with your doctors beforehand if you suffer with thyroid health problems.
