Hydrolyzed collagen is a nutritional supplement that is made from bovine bone and cartilage. It is produced by crushing and grinding the bone, treating it to remove the calcium and break down the remaining materials, then dehydrating the resulting product. This process produces some small, intact amino acids which can be easily absorbed by the body. Amino acids are important because they are the building blocks of proteins. The amino acids contained in this particular supplement are used for repairing tissues and muscles. There have been many studies examining the health benefits of this particular product. It has been found to be useful for a wide range of people, from athletes to osteoporosis sufferers. Studies have found that it can help to repair joints, improve muscle strength, reduce fatigue, and even help with certain skin problems. Some studies have produced conflicting results, however so far there are more positive ones than negative. There are not currently any known side effects to the consumption of hydrolyzed collagen. It is often used as topically in cosmetics and bath products, and is often also used in foods, and as a component in the casing of many tablets. Despite the lack of known side effects, it is always wise to consult your doctor before taking this supplement, or any other new health product. This is especially important if you are pregnant, breast feeding, or taking any medication.
