What does collagen do?
Collagen is often thought of for beauty, but it helps with much more than healthy skin. It supports the structures that keep you moving—from joints, tendons, and muscles to your bones and connective tissue.
The best time to invest in your future health is before you think you need it.
“I'm not just thinking about today's workout—I'm thinking about how I want to feel years from now.”
I love StayStrong+ because:
Backed by science
Focused on proof, not promises.
Built for recovery
Supports the demands I put on my body.
Keeps me moving
Supports mobility for the long haul.

How to choose a good collagen supplement
Not all collagen supplements are made the same. Here's what to look for.
-
Does it contain trusted collagen types?
Not all collagen types carry the same quality or efficacy. Look for clinically studied collagen ingredients backed by research for their quality, proper dose, and targeted benefits—not just generic collagen.* -
Does it contain the right dose of collagen?
The dose matters as much as the ingredient. Look for clinically studied collagen ingredients at the exact dose shown to deliver meaningful benefits—not just bigger numbers.* -
Is it third-party tested for purity?
Quality collagen supplements should be tested for purity, potency, and safety. Look for third-party testing, GMP and NSF manufacturing, and trusted ingredient verification.* -
Will you actually take it every day?
Collagen works best when taken daily. Choose a format that fits naturally into your routine—whether that's a powder or a convenient daily chew—and stick with it.*
What matters most? Keep |
The truth is, the best collagen supplement isn't just about collagen types or ingredients. It's about helping you keep doing things you love for years to come.

Frequently asked questions about collagen supplements
Yes—when you choose collagen supplements made with clinically studied ingredients at research-backed doses. Different collagen ingredients have been studied for different benefits, including joint health, skin elasticity, mobility, and connective tissue support.
Not all collagen supplements are the same. The collagen type, dose, and quality all play an important role in the results you can expect. That's why every StayStrong+ formula is built around clinically studied ingredients selected for specific wellness goals.
Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body and helps support the structures that keep you moving, including your joints, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, bones, skin, and other connective tissues. As natural collagen production declines with age, many people choose collagen supplements to support healthy aging and staying active.
Different collagen types support different areas of the body. For example, some are studied for skin health, while others are better known for supporting joint comfort and mobility.
The best collagen supplement depends on your wellness goals. Different collagen types have been studied for different benefits.
Looking for joint comfort and mobility? A formula containing UC-II® undenatured type II collagen may be a good fit.
Interested in supporting healthy skin? VERISOL® collagen peptides have been studied for skin elasticity and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Want broader support? Multi-collagen formulas combine specialized collagen ingredients to support multiple structures throughout the body.

Results vary depending on your wellness goals, the collagen ingredient, and how consistently you take it.
For example, clinical studies on VERISOL® collagen peptides have shown improvements in skin elasticity and the appearance of wrinkles after about eight weeks of consistent daily use. UC-II® has also been studied for supporting joint comfort and mobility with daily use, although everyone's experience may differ.
Like most wellness routines, collagen supplements work best when taken consistently over time as part of a healthy lifestyle.
There isn't one daily amount that's right for everyone. The ideal dose depends on the type of collagen and the benefit you're looking for.
The most important thing isn't taking the highest dose—it's choosing collagen supplements that contain clinically studied ingredients at the same amounts used in research. Every StayStrong+ formula is designed with this approach in mind.
It can be, depending on your wellness goals. Because each StayStrong+ formula is designed for a different purpose, some people choose to combine products to support multiple areas of health.
For example, someone focused on both skin health and joint comfort may choose different collagen formulas than someone primarily interested in strength and recovery. Since both StayStrong+ powders (Joint & Muscle collagen powder and Brain & Body collagen powder) contain a full daily serving of creatine, you generally wouldn't need to take both powders together.
If you're unsure which combination is right for you, browse the StayStrong+ collection or speak with your healthcare practitioner for personalized guidance.
