When you’re new to collagen, you might be lead to believe that the only way you can get in your daily collagen recommended dose is to mix it with “your favourite drink”. Often leading to a grainy and unappetizing concoction that is endured rather than enjoyed. We recommend one of The Collagen Co’s super tasty and easily dissolvable peptides to solve your woes.
Second to that though, if you’d prefer to get your collagen fix outside of the liquid form, there’s more ways than one! From breakfast bars and brownies to protein balls and blondies – you can get your recommended daily dose of collagen through the goodness of tasty home-made foods. The recipes that we create are designed to be easy to follow, nutritious and packed full of your favourite collagen from The Collagen Co. We’re here to provide you with our top three collagen recipes to bring life back into your mealtimes, as well as your complexion.
Before we delve into the collagen recipes, I think it’s important to understand the collagen recommended dose. Now, everybody’s needs are different when it comes to collagen. So be sure to adjust your dose to tailor to your own goals.
Between 15-30 grams of collagen peptides a day will give you visible results. One serve a day is ideal if you’re looking to target fine lines and wrinkles, or improve your hair and nail strength, ease joint pain, build muscle, improve gut health and get an overall energy boost. Two serves a day will fast track your results. Have one serve in the morning and one serve in the evening. And with collagen that tastes this good, you’re bound to want more.
Let’s get into the recipes.
