In episode 71 of his video series, Dr. Larson discusses:
There is a lot of information that is coming to light about the benefits of collagen supplementation in the health industry. Therefore, many companies are coming out with collagen products to meet the growing demand. With so many to choose from, it is difficult to know which ones are quality products and which ones are not.
Not only is it essential to have many different sources to get the highest quality supplement, but it is also vital to know what those sources are. Look for things like “grass fed” bovine collagen or “cage-free” egg collagen, to know how good the source that the collagen comes from is. DR. CHAD LARSON
The way to get the most benefit from a supplement, and collagen is no different, is to get the highest quality source. When you compare labels to find the right collagen product for you, you’ll want to find the one that has collagen that comes from more than one source. You will also want to ensure that the source that it comes from is organic and natural.
Collagen supplements that only come from one source are not going to have the broad range of support that you get if you choose a product that has multiple sources. Perfect Collagen, which is what Dr. Larson takes, has collagen that comes from five sources, which is why he chose it. Five sources is the highest number of collagen sources that he has found in any one supplement.
Not only is it essential to have many different sources to get the highest quality supplement, but it is also vital to know what those sources are. Look for things like “grass fed” bovine collagen or “cage-free” egg collagen, to know how good the source that the collagen comes from is. If you buy junky sources of collagen, then you are feeding your body junk. And, in reality, not doing yourself much good. You are also probably not going to gain the benefits that you’d hoped from supplementing with collagen.
Collagen helps to reduce functional joint pain, proponents also tout hair and skin, and gastrointestinal tract health benefits. But, like any other supplement in the industry, the product you use will only work as good as the quality of it. So find a collagen supplement that has a minimum of four to five sources, and make sure that those sources are, likewise, quality, to reap the benefits.
