What it is
Collagen Protein is a type of protein found in the connective tissues of animals. In supplement form, it is usually sold as collagen peptides or hydrolysed collagen powder, which means the protein has been broken down into smaller pieces called peptides so the body can absorb them more easily.
Why it's used
People use this supplement to support the health of their skin, hair, nails, and joints. Because it provides the specific building blocks for connective tissue, it is often used by those looking to improve skin elasticity or reduce joint discomfort.
How it compares to Marine Collagen
While Collagen Protein is a general term that can include sources from cows or pigs, Marine Collagen comes specifically from fish.

How it's made
To make the powder, raw collagen from animal sources is collected and cleaned. It then undergoes a process called hydrolysis, where it is treated with water and enzymes to break the long protein chains into much smaller fragments. Finally, the liquid is dried into a fine powder and put into tubs or capsules.
What it typically costs
This supplement is generally mid-range in price. This is because the industrial process of hydrolysis requires specific enzymes and equipment, making it more expensive to produce than basic whey protein, but cheaper than highly specialised medical-grade supplements.
