What are some tips for taking your collagen supplement?Updated 12 days ago
If you are new to taking collagen, we recommend starting with ¼ scoop and gradually increase to 1–2 scoops over several weeks. The suggested serving size for our Skin & Bone Collagen is 2 scoops daily, which provides 10 g of collagen (5 g VERISOL® and 5 g FORTIBONE®).
We recommend not exceeding 4 scoops per day, as higher amounts have not been shown to provide additional benefit. Many people begin noticing benefits for skin, hair, and nails within approximately 30 days, while benefits related to bone health may take up to a year.
As with any new supplement, it can take time for your body to adjust. We also recommend staying well-hydrated and maintaining adequate fiber intake from fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, supplementing as needed. If you are practicing intermittent fasting, it is best to take Skin & Bone Collagen during your eating window, as it contains calories.
Ways to incorporate Skin & Bone Collagen:
- Mix into water: Stir into a glass of water or use a shaker bottle. Add ice for a chilled option.
- Blend into smoothies: Add before blending for a simple boost.
- Add to tea or coffee: Works well in both hot and cold beverages.
- Mix into yogurt: Stir into yogurt for an easy addition to meals or snacks.
- Combine with other The Pause Nutrition® supplements, such as Fiber GDX or Creatine.
- Stay hydrated!
We recommend consulting your doctor before adding any new supplement or changing your routine, and remember that supplements are meant to help fill in any gaps in your nutritional needs.
