Collagen is a major structural protein that plays an important role in the health of skin, joints, and connective tissues. As we age, the body’s natural collagen production gradually declines - typically starting in our mid-20s. Factors like sun exposure, a suboptimal diet, smoking, and stress may contribute to a faster decline. While many modern diets may lack collagen-rich foods, supplementing with collagen can help support healthy skin, joints, and overall connective tissue.**
We can use research to gauge some documented timing, yet the honest answer is that it varies for everyone. Your body will prioritize where the collagen is needed most. Factors like age, your need for collagen (i.e. recovering from injury), diet, lifestyle and more, play a role in how quickly you may notice benefits. Clinical trials studies on collagen peptides have shown improvements in skin hydration, smoothness, and appearance over 1–3 months of daily use.*
Hydrolyzed collagen is highly bioavailable, as it’s broken into shorter amino acid chains called peptides that the body recognizes as collagen. Once easily absorbed through the gut, these peptides supply the building blocks for new collagen and also signal to collagen-producing cells, supporting natural repair processes.**
MSC-certified fish collagen supports sustainable fishing practices, protecting marine ecosystems and reducing bycatch. This certification reflects our commitment to a cleaner product - crafted without unnecessary additives, antibiotics, or environmental pollutants. It also helps to preserve fish populations for future generations by meeting international standards for responsible wild-caught fishing.
The beauty of powdered collagen is that you can tailor the dose. For maintenance, we recommend 6g (2tsp) daily. To make this easy, the Ritual Scoop measures around 6g of Wild Collagen. For greater collagen support – like during recovery or for active lifestyles – 10-12 grams per day is ideal.
There are a few key differences between marine and bovine collagen linked in our journal article here. Ultimately, our marine collagen and bovine collagen are both effective - providing 100% hydrolyzed type I collagen peptides and with clinically-backed benefits*. And so, the choice is more a matter of dietary preference.
Hydrolyzed collagen peptides are a bioavailable and highly absorbable form of amino acids, meaning they are easy for our body to utilize**. Collagen exists in its natural form as very large, complex molecules constructed from lots of long chains of polypeptides. The collagen molecule itself is far too big to be absorbed across the gut wall, so it needs to be broken down into smaller chains called peptides. Once absorbed, these peptides help support the body’s natural collagen production in bones, skin, and connective tissue+.
Studies suggest that the body’s ability to produce collagen naturally starts to decline in our early 20s**. As we move into our thirties, this process may continue at an accelerated rate. Therefore, you may choose to begin taking collagen in your 20s or 30s to support your skin, joints, and whole body health as you age. Ultimately, whenever you decide to start your daily collagen ritual, the Ancient + Brave team will be here to support you and guide you through your journey.
A common myth surrounding collagen supplements is that they can lead to digestive discomfort. In reality, high-quality hydrolyzed collagen peptides are generally very well tolerated and are often used to support gut health**. However, when introducing a new protein source like collagen,specific enzymes are required to break them down effectively, and the digestive system sometimes needs time (and a little support) to adjust. If you have a sensitive digestive system, here are some tips that may support:
- Start with a smaller dose (½ teaspoon) and gradually increase to allow your digestion to adapt.
- Take it with food to aid digestion.
- Consider enzyme-rich foods like pineapple or papaya, or speak to your healthcare provider about taking a digestive enzyme supplement.
- Stay hydrated - drinking plenty of fluids supports digestion.
- Incorporate gut-friendly foods like fermented foods (yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut) and fiber-rich foods.Please reach out to our team if you need any additional support.
We keep our True Collagen and Wild Collagen purely collagen-focused to ensure a versatile and easily to use product. Our collagen can blend effortlessly into any drink, letting you adjust your dose as needed without the concern of over-supplementing on individual vitamins and added nutrients. This simplicity allows you to benefit consistently from high-quality collagen, while still having the flexibility to complement it with any additions based on your unique wellness routine.
Type I is the most abundant type of collagen in the body, making up the majority of skin, bones, and connective tissues**.
The recommended daily intake of collagen is 5-15g, which is supported by most clinical studies. Some individuals may benefit from the higher end of the range of 10-15g, such as those recovering from an injury, following a low-protein diet, experiencing age-related collagen decline, or engaging in intensive physical activity.
Collagen peptides are heat-stable up to 572°F - way above the temperatures you’d use for everyday cooking or hot drinks (boiling water is 212°F). This means you can confidently add them to hot drinks like tea, coffee, or even soups without affecting their benefits. In fact, many people love adding collagen to their morning coffee for an easy daily ritual.
However, we recommend not adding to fizzy or carbonated drinks. Collagen doesn't dissolve well in carbonated liquids, which can cause clumping or frothing, and may negatively affect texture and taste. For the best experience, stick to still beverages, smoothies, or any food or drink where it can dissolve smoothly.
You should always speak to your healthcare provider before introducing any new supplements or dietary changes during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Due to ethical constraints, studies in pregnant and breastfeeding individuals are limited, so we are unable to make specific recommendations. If in doubt, please consult your healthcare provider.
Hydrolyzed collagen peptides are broken into smaller peptides that pass through the stomach into the small intestine. There, digestive enzymes further break them down into amino acids and peptides that can be absorbed by the body. These small fragments then support the body’s natural collagen production.**

"Nails and hair thicker - skin bright - not 100% convinced about my achy joints and ligaments are better 🤷♀️ And if the label on the jar could go back to being easy to remove so I could reuse the jars then it would great - but you have dismissed that idea!"
"I have taken this collagen for 4 weeks now. I have noticed that my nails feel slightly stronger, my hair feels slightly thicker and my achy joints are less achy. My skin, however, does not look like it has improved yet. But time will tell."
"I have been using Wild collagen for just a couple of weeks, I wll review in more detail once I have I have used consistently for a couple of months. I was concenrned there would be a fishy taste but there isn't. I love the presentation of this in a beautiful glass jar. This dissolves well into my morning coffee and I have noticed easing of pain in my joints. I love the golden stainless steel measuring scoop, it does feel a little decadent and ritualistic-esue. Excited to share more once my journey has progressed."
"This is easy enough to take and to buy. The info is good and informative. I’ve only been taking it for four weeks, and have not noticed any effect on skin, hair or anything. I eat well and have enough vitamin c. I shall continue for another two months and hope to see or feel some benefits."
"The taste is neutral which is great to add to my smoothies, but I have only been taking it a month and haven't noticed any changes yet. I think I need to take the True Collagen as my aching body might need some help."
"Taking in my coffee every morning, can't say I've noticed any major improvement from the Zooki collegen I was talking previously but I like that it dissolves easily and is tasteless. The glass jar is much nicer and environmentally friendly than individual sachets."
"I’ve been using both the Matcha + Collagen and Wild Collagen, and they’ve become part of my daily routine. The quality is outstanding, and you can tell a lot of care has gone into creating these products. The Matcha + Collagen has a lovely smooth taste and gives me a gentle, sustained energy boost without the jitters I get from coffee. It mixes well and has become my favourite way to start the day. The Wild Collagen dissolves easily with no unpleasant taste, making it so easy to add to my morning drink. I’ve noticed my skin feels more hydrated and my hair and nails seem stronger. I also love knowing it’s made with high-quality, responsibly sourced ingredients. Ancient + Brave consistently delivers premium products that I genuinely enjoy using. The packaging is beautiful, the ingredients are clean, and everything feels thoughtfully made. I highly recommend both to anyone looking to support their wellbeing from the inside out. Five stars from me! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
"I have suffered from itchy burning skin for a long time, three weeks in taking 10mg in my morning coffee and the itching has stopped! I also have rosacea, my facial skin is so much smoother 😊. I can’t wait to see what other little miracles taking Ancient & Brave marine collagen will bring. Just ordered two refill packs 😊. Thank you, such a god send. X"
"Haven't used it for a full month yet so difficult to give a fair review. It mixes well although I find it has a faintly unpleasant taste. Not enough to put me off but I'm not a regular coffee/tea drinker so I can't quite get into the routine of using it. I don't think I will buy again, more a reflection of my own habits than the product."
"The order was quick and efficient and the free scoop is a useful and nice to look at. The jar lasted me about 3 weeks based on a scoop a day. I’ve not noticed any difference yet but understand it can take a few months to notice the benefits. The initial jar had a fishy smell and taste and I couldn’t have it in tea because of that but coffee was strong enough to mask it but there was still a hint. It dissolves really well with no lumps. The 2nd order which was a refill pack was defo less fishy than the jar so maybe it’s just the jars that have the strong fish smell. Overall I am happy with the service and the product so far and will continue with the subscription for now."
