I’ve been taking collagen peptides from animal hides, it’s the latest hit thing. Supposed to help with skin, hair, nails, but for me it’s all about joints. When you weigh 220lbs, I have to be really focused on longevity and not wearing out my joint cartilage by running and hiking 3-4x/week
I’ve noticed a small difference (but tbh I try to make sure I’m always stepping in a way where my muscle bears my weight and not my joints/bones, which means I rarely feel any joint pain to begin with), although supposedly the stomach breaks down the molecule so of course it’s not a direct +collagen transfer. I wonder if they can eventually create a methylated version of it that can’t be broken down by the liver

Good plan. Works better while your younger (the time take it) and will pay out yuuuge dividends when you're 50+ and you are athletic so ya gotta replace what gets used. Good plan!
Check out bone broth.
