Igennus Advanced Hydrolysed Collagen Peptides
Our verdict
A well-priced way to test collagen at a proper dose, and bovine rather than marine if you have a fish allergy. Judge it on protein contribution and joint comfort rather than expecting a visible skin change.
Pros
- +Low cost per serving
- +Suitable with fish allergy
Cons
- -Not vegan
- -Skin evidence remains modest
Evidence
Trials on skin elasticity and joint comfort are mostly short, industry-funded and modest in effect. Collagen is a protein source, not a skin treatment. Total daily protein intake is what matters for muscle in midlife. A powder is a convenience, not a special ingredient.
Dose
One serving daily in a drink, 40 servings per pack
