3. Relieves Joint Pain
Collagen promotes the integrity of cartilage, the rubbery tissue that shields joints. As a person ages and their collagen decreases, they become increasingly susceptible to cartilage damage and other degenerative joint disorders.
Some studies have found that consuming collagen peptide supplements may reduce joint pain and improve osteoporosis symptoms.5‘SciELO - Scientific Electronic Library Online,’ www.scielo.br/pdf/rbgg/v19n1/1809-9823-rbgg-19-01-00153.pdf. Researchers also believe collagen supplements may stimulate collagen production in tissues. This may in turn reduce inflammation and pain and provide support for joints.
