Reginster J-Y. (2021). Highly purified chondroitin sulfate: a literature review on clinical efficacy and pharmacoeconomic aspects in osteoarthritis treatment. Your Collagen Hydrolysate, Keto Collagen + MCT, and Collagen Endurance Plus products are not generally recognized as safe and effective for the above referenced uses and, therefore, the products are “new drugs” under section 201(p) of the Act [21 U.S.C. 321(p)]. With certain exceptions not applicable here, new drugs may not be legally introduced or delivered for introduction into interstate commerce without prior approval from FDA, as described in sections 301(d) and 505(a) of the Act [21 U.S.C. 331(d), 355(a)]. FDA approves a new drug on the basis of scientific data and information demonstrating that the drug is safe and effective. Collagen supplements are found in the form of a powder, a capsule, or a tablet. However, we decided to focus on collagen in powder form because it is the most cost-effective way to consume adequate amounts of collagen. GELATIN VS. COLLAGEN We prepared the broths in an Instant Pot (one of our nutrition team’s favorite kitchen tools), which has a stainless steel insert, using the slow cooker’s normal/medium setting. Both sets of homemade broth contained visually similar types of bones, including those containing larger amounts of marrow and those that came from joints. Neither set was roasted or had meat left on the bones. In terms of when to take collagen peptides, she said that for it to be effective for joint pain, it’s necessary to consume 5-15 grams, and it’s best taken 45 minutes to an hour before exercise to give the body enough time to digest and assimilate the collagen. Exercise increases blood flow to the joints, which transports more amino acids and peptides to those areas.

Lysine may aid in reducing triglyceride levels in the blood . . . as well as it may help to synthesize carnitine which helps to prevent many health issues that involve the heart and circulatory system”

Collagen supplements can be taken in capsules, but the best way to get adequate amounts of this valuable substance is by using a powder to makes a collagen protein drink. Carlos Pastor-Pareja, J., Tian Xu. (2011) Shaping Cells and Organs in Drosophilia by Opposing Roles of Fat-Body Secreted Collage IV and Perlecan. Development Cell. 21(2), 245-256. DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.devcel.2011.06.026 One thing to note is that the size of a container of the Further Food is smaller than other collagen powders (6.5 oz vs. the 10 or 20 oz containers of Vital Proteins). However, it has the same amount of servings per container—28. A serving scoop on the Further Food is 6.6 g vs. a serving of Vital Proteins is 20 g. The typical dosage for collagen powder is 1 to 9 grams per day, so Further Food is well within the spectrum. More collagen doesn’t always mean better since quality impacts absorption levels. When it comes to bone broth, it’s common for bone broth and collagen to be thought of as synonymous. However, that’s not quite the case. Bone broth is made by simmering animal bones and connective tissue in water to extract minerals and gelatin. Collagen products, on the other hand, are made by breaking down the hides, skin, tendons, ligaments of animals, and scales of fish, using water and heat to make gelatin, often requiring up to 40 hours of simmering. Our own blind taste tests of multiple reviewers actually found this collagen to be among the best tasting with a slight frothiness almost like a latte. We found that when mixed with 6 oz of room temperature water and a fork, there were still some small clumps at the bottom, so you may prefer to mix this in a blender or into oatmeal or a smoothie. Further Food appears to be very responsive in responding to customer concerns and with resolving complaints.
