It\u2019s found in tendons, fat, organs, and ligaments, working hard to keep your skin looking young and your joints working smoothly.<\/p>\n<p>But as we age, the body produces less collagen, leading to joint pain, decreased muscle mass, and saggy skin. \u201cCollagen is a connective tissue protein,\u201d says Chris Hollingsworth M.D., a surgeon with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nycsurgical.net\">NYC Surgical Associates<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The good news: Collagen comes in supplement form\u2014and when combined with a whey protein supplement, your joints hit the jackpot.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How It Works<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>According to Hollingsworth, the amino acids <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=glycine\">glycine<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=arginine\">arginine<\/a> in protein improve our skin, bone, and joint health. Because of this, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/vital-collagen-whey-vanilla-coconut-water-1-5-lb-powder\/vtp007\">collagen-enhanced protein powders<\/a> provide a one-two punch to help your body recover from a hard workout while helping to keep your joints healthy enough for the next one.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2017\/04\/17\/drink-collagen-30-days\/\">I Drank Collagen For 30 Days\u2014Here\u2019s How It Turned Out<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur bodies work most efficiently when they are building and repairing themselves,\u201d says Hollingsworth. \u201cCollagen whey benefits us by keeping our body in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/18416885\">anabolic state<\/a> (where proteins are being built, instead of being broken down).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you experience pain, decreased motion, and stiffness in your hands, hips, or knees, collagen whey may also help to promote functionality. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/17076983\"><em>Current Medical Research and Opinion<\/em><\/a>, patients with certain kinds of arthritis saw improvements with the use of collagen. And another <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/11071580\">clinical study<\/a> suggests that the ingestion of 10g of collagen hydrolysate daily helped to support joint health in patients with knee or hip issues.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Increased Muscle Strength<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cIt becomes harder to maintain lean muscle mass as we age and our metabolism changes,\u201d says Hollingsworth. But that\u2019s where collagen whey comes in, yet again: \u00a0\u201cCollagen whey supplementation has been shown to counteract these age-related decreases in muscle mass, as well as fight some of the effects of aging.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=collagen%2Bwhey\">Shop collagen whey products.\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A study in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/26353786\"><em>British Journal of Nutrition<\/em><\/a> demonstrated that, compared with placebo, collagen peptide (a type of easy-to-digest collagen found in collagen whey) supplementation in combination with resistance training further improved body composition by increasing fat-free mass, muscle strength, and loss in fat mass. The study subjects underwent a 12-week guided resistance-training program and were supplemented with either collagen peptides or a placebo. Following the training program, the effect was significantly more pronounced in subjects receiving collagen peptides.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Younger-Looking Skin<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>According to the Cleveland Clinic, <a href=\"https:\/\/my.clevelandclinic.org\/health\/articles\/an-overview-of-your-skin\">collagen makes up 75-80 percent of your skin<\/a>, so it\u2019s no wonder this protein may help to ward off wrinkles, sag, and even cellulite. A study in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4685482\/\"><em>Journal of Medicinal Food<\/em><\/a> investigated the results of collagen peptides on the cellulite treatment of normal and overweight women, and the results showed that the regular ingestion of collagen over a six-month period led to a clear improvement of the skin appearance.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, collagen peptides have been shown to <a href=\"http:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/jocd.12174\/full\">help with skin dryness<\/a>\u2014a common sign of aging skin. Other anti-aging effects, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/23949208\">improved skin elasticity<\/a>, have also been observed.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re already taking a whey protein supplement, consider exploring one that offers the additional benefits of collagen (we recommend <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=collagen%2Bwhey\">Vital Proteins Collagen Whey Protein)<\/a>.
