Collagen Questions

Injectable collagen isn't really a thing. Hyaluronic acid can be injected into joints though, especially after forty. Collagen needs high amounts like ten to twelve grams daily plus vitamin C since it supports synthesis. Powder ends up the cheapest way.

I use a powder. I add the scoop to a premade protein shake with vitamins each morning, seal it, and shake it thoroughly. Capsules are usually my choice but I'm already on a few other capsule supplements and the needed collagen quantity makes powder simpler to measure accurately.

GHK-Cu prompts the body to make its own collagen. Some apply it on the skin while others inject it, and some do both. It provides various additional benefits. A doctor on YouTube has a long video on the subject that makes it sound almost like a miracle treatment. A related form called AHK-Cu is claimed to be even better for hair.

Fish collagen is favored, especially from cod, in peptide form since that absorbs readily. Five grams daily works because the peptide version allows a reduced dose.
