welcome back this is dr jen sung where
clinical excellence
meets excellent results
today we're going to talk about collagen
supplements
and what you need to know before taking
the supplements so let's get right into
it
[Music]
is necessary for the formation of
connective tissue
basically skin bones cartilage tendons
ligaments
hair and nails okay
collagen is made up of peptides
primarily glycine proline and
hydroxyproline
it's derived from
pigs cows marine animals
fish and egg membranes
basically all the bone and the griddle
of all these animals is where the
collagen is
main uses joint pain inflammatory
conditions skin bone tissue repair
okay and cardiovascular effects because
it actually helps the
cardiovascular tissues
like the arteries and the veins okay
so
what you need to know there are
one two three four five types and number
ten right in here
so number one is derived from dermis
tendon ligaments and bone
type two cartilage
vitros body which is basically
the eyeball right the fluid inside
nucleus pulposus
that is the disc
so if you look at the spinal cord
there's a disc and it has annular
fibrosis and nucleus pulses and in the
middle is this gelatinous portion called
the nucleus pulposus which is the
cushion of the disc in your spine
type 3 skin vessel walls reticular
fibers things that are matrix that hold
things together
type 4 is basal lamina epithelial layer
of the basement membrane these are all
different tissues in the body
type 5 is lung cornea hair fetal
membrane and bones
and type 10 is known to help with bone
health overall
all right
so there are different forms and a lot
of supplement companies will use either
one
or three or one and three together
some companies will target type two
which is really good for
sports injuries or
joint pain and inflammation
sometimes they'll use one two three five
so it depends on the company and what
type of collagen they're going to use
and the effects that you're going to
have
so the supplement companies will use
something called collagen collagen
hydroxylase has a lower molecular weight
and it absorbs a little bit better
or they have gelatin hydroxylase which
is derived from fish
and
in the studies it increases plasma
levels of amino acids
better than porcelain
or bovine basically pigs or cows so the
fish derive is shown to increase
collagen or amino acid uptake
there's another form called denatured
collagen that they utilize so different
forms so you want to find the company
that actually lists the types of
collagen is
that's in the product so rather than
just say it's collagen you want to know
the specific types okay
so
in order to absorb collagen it's better
to use it when you have vitamin c these
are little notes i made for myself
vitamin c hyaluronic acid for joint pain
so you can use that you want to use
supplementation for at least eight weeks
to see if you have benefit because
tissue turnover takes a little bit of
time right your skin turns over a
certain
number of times in a year
your bones will also turn over in a
certain number of times per year so you
want to use it for a minimum of eight
weeks to see if you have benefits if
you're going to use a supplementation
at the end of the day it's best if you
can make your own right if you make your
own bone broth you can make it out of
fish stock so you get whole fish like
salmon and you can boil it
keep the skin
you can use chicken
thighs legs
keep the skin so you want to get wild
caught fish right you want to get
free-range pasture-raised chicken
things that you know are good in the
chicken so if you made chicken noodle
soup you can use entire chicken
and boil that to make that so you can
put a little apple cider vinegar to pull
the the bones
or the ligaments and break it down a
little bit better
you can use
salmon stock you can do
chicken eggs
chicken eggs the membrane
of that chicken egg is also high in
collagen so my recommendation would be
best if you could make your own bone
broth and there's a lot of different
recipes out there
utilizing fish chicken
in in the korean culture they use oxtail
to make bone broth so a lot of cultures
will use bone broth
because it's good
for your overall health
if you're going to use a supplementation
look at what type of
collagen is in there as well as the
hydroxylated forms that are better
absorbed
and if you want to use collagen and you
don't have time yes you can supplement
but it's better if you can make your own
all right my name is dr jin sung where
clinical excellence meets excellent
results and we'll see you guys next week
on the healthy side have an awesome day
