Collagen Questions

[GrandmaJ]

I am early into my weightloss journey and know from previous losses that hair thinning is an issue for me. I am taking a multi and a biotin supplement. Thinking of adding collagen. Is there an injectable peptide that anyone uses or does everyone just supplement with powder or capsules? Sam's has a cheap powder as well as a capsule. Thinking of going that route but also wouldn't mind hearing other's thoughts.

you mean like injectable collagen? not really.

You can inject hialuronic acid in your joints (especially if you're over 40 )

When it comes to collagen, it's important to take a lot (like 10000-12000 mg) and with vitamin C which plays a big part in collagen synthesis. Powder is the cheapest option.

I use a powder. I drink a premade protein shake with vitamins every morning and just stick the scoop of powder in, close the shake back up, and then shake the heck out of it.

Usually I’m a capsule person but I’m already taking capsules of a couple of other things, plus with how much collagen is needed to be effective it is easier to ensure I’m really getting enough with the powder.

GHK-Cu stimulates your body's own collagen production. Some people apply it topically while others inject it. Some do both.

It has all kinds of other benefits. There is a YouTube MD named Quinn Stillson who has a long video about it. The video almost makes it sound like a miracle drug.

A variant called AHK-Cu is supposedly even better for hair.

Ik ben nog maar net begonnen met afvallen en weet uit ervaring dat haaruitval een probleem voor me is. Ik slik een multivitamine en een biotine supplement. Ik denk erover om daar collageen aan toe te voegen. Bestaat er een injecteerbaar peptide dat iemand gebruikt, of gebruikt iedereen gewoon poeder of capsules? Sam's Club heeft een goedkoop poeder en capsules. Ik overweeg om daarvoor te kiezen, maar ik hoor graag ook de mening van anderen.

Viscollageen het liefste van kabeljauw. Het liefste in peptiden vorm dit is een makkelijk opneembaarbare vorm. Elke dag 5 gram omdat het Peptiden vorm is kan in een lagere dosis volstaan worden.
