What this video covers
Collagen is simple, cheap, and safe, and it can dramatically improve markers of skin health. And a brand new study only increases our confidence in its effectiveness. But it also sheds light on an important question that hasn’t been clear. What source of collagen gives us the best results?

Key points, in the speaker’s own framing
- Collagen is simple, cheap, and safe, and it can dramatically improve markers of skin health.
- First though, let’s look briefly at what the studies that compare collagen peptides to a placebo have found so far in terms of skin health.
- A randomized control trial in 2022 tested the effects of collagen peptides on wrinkles and skin quality.
- Taken together, the findings from the study give us additional evidence for the power of collagen peptide supplements to rejuvenate our skin.
- And one intriguing randomized control trial from 2020 gives us direct evidence for greater efficacy of peptides.
- And while collagen peptides are a great sciencebacked way to help maintain healthy looking skin, there are two other things that I personally use that have strong evidence for their effectiveness.
