Morning, midday eller evening?
When during the day do you take your collagen? And is there really a best time? It depends on what your goal is, meaning what you want to achieve from taking the collagen. Generally, you can take your collagen whenever it suits you best, at any time of the day.
Collagen in the morning
Taking your collagen in the morning can be a great way to start your day. You might make a smoothie for breakfast, where collagen powder can easily and conveniently be included as an extra nutritious ingredient. If you drink coffee, our Pure Marine Collagen is the perfect choice, as it is heat-resistant and therefore ideal for hot drinks. Additionally, incorporating collagen into your morning routine can make it easier to remember.
Collagen during the day
If your mornings are busy, it might suit you better to take your collagen later in the day, such as at lunchtime. Mix the collagen into water, juice, or other beverages while you enjoy your well-deserved lunch. If you’re not at home for lunch, it can be beneficial to have an extra jar of collagen at the office. That way, you always have your favourite marine collagen close at hand.
Collagen in the evening
Some people choose to take their collagen in the evening, especially if they don't have a morning routine or tend to forget it during the day. If you have a nice evening routine where you pamper yourself a little extra, collagen can easily be an additional part of this routine.
Marine collagen also contains the amino acid tryptophan, which is converted in the body into melatonin, helping to regulate our sleep-wake cycle.
Additionally, marine collagen contains the amino acid glycine, which can have a calming effect, making it ideal to take your collagen in the evening. However, this doesn't mean that taking your collagen earlier in the day will make you tired or lethargic.
Collagen - with or without food?
You can take your collagen with or without food; the effect is the same regardless of what you choose. The most important thing is to find a routine that fits into your daily lifestyle. For some people, it's easiest to remember if they take the collagen with a meal.
Collagen can also be seen as an ingredient that works well in smoothies, overnight oats, and much more. In our collection of delicious recipes with collagen, you are sure to find one or more that offer new ways to consume your daily collagen.
Part of your beauty routine or your active lifestyle?
There can be different reasons why you take collagen and various needs you want to address. Perhaps you have chosen a collagen product from Vild Nord because of its beauty-enhancing properties, or you might want to support your training and active lifestyle with extra protein. Depending on your needs and your desired effect on your body, you can choose the best time to take your collagen.
Beauty
For most people, the beauty routine begins in the morning when we wake up. The night's sweat and sleep are washed off the skin, the favourite cream is applied, and a healthy, nutritious breakfast is enjoyed.
Make collagen from Vild Nord a good habit and a part of your daily beauty routine. Collagen contributes to the skin's elasticity and firmness and can therefore reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
Try Lemon Marine Collagen, which, with its delicious and sweet natural lemon flavour, is easy to incorporate into your routines. It is a perfect combination of marine collagen and natural vitamin C, which contributes to the body's normal collagen formation, important for maintaining healthy skin.
Exercise
Since collagen powder is rich in protein, it is a perfect supplement for those who exercise or have an active lifestyle. Protein helps maintain and build normal muscle mass. While your muscles benefit from the proteins, your skin still enjoys the beauty-related effects.
When using collagen powder in conjunction with exercise, you can take your collagen before your workout with carbohydrates, during the workout dissolved in water, or after your workout to give your body extra protein and essential amino acids.
Pure Marine Collagen is 100% pure marine collagen and contains 95g of protein per 100g of powder. You get all 20 amino acids, both essential and non-essential, and Pure Marine Collagen is heat-resistant and dissolves easily in all types of liquids.
Find the time that suits you best
To get the most out of your collagen, consistency is key. Find a time and method that fits into your daily routine, so you remember to take it every day. Whether it’s in the morning, after a workout, or before bedtime, regular collagen intake will help you achieve the results you desire.
The best time to take collagen is whenever you remember it because the most important thing is that you take it every day.
