Skin moisture improved, but not to a statistically reportable degree. This recent clinical trial, on the other hand, gave groups of women aged 40-65 in France and Japan an increased dose—10g—of hydrolyzed marine collagen daily for eight weeks. Results were positive, and included not only improved elasticity, but a higher statistically reportable moisture content. So if you do believe in collagen supplements, you need to pay close attention to the dosage.

Of course I am open to anything that helps our skin, but because I am a doctor basing my skin care on science and evidence, I want more evidence than I’ve seen so far.” This seems to be the clincher for Dr. Anole: “I’d be more influenced if a study could in some way tag or label the supplement consumed and have that tag be found in large concentrations in the new skin. Coming from the perspective of someone who uses collagen to build healthy muscle, Joyce Longfield notes, Metabolism studies show that the average person requires 8g of protein for the anabolic process of protein synthesis to begin in our bodies.
