Can anyone recommend a good brand of collagen supplement to buy in Australia that has the right ingredients (e.g, peptides) and isn’t too expensive? Haven’t had a lot of luck finding the ones recommended in the Podcast in USA. I’ve been buying this one , it’s good, but it’s a bit on the pricey end fo…

IceBear, how you finding the SD Collagen? Keen to try it especially given Ask a Cycling Coach podcast ep248, but at ~$80 for 526grams ($2 per dose) isn’t a cheap try for me, so wanted to hear if you thought it helped.

I use it every day, it taste’s ok when I mix it with Orange juice. I run six days a week and ride six days a week, doing roughly 700-800 TSS per week. Monday is a run only day; and Tuesday is a ride only (VO2) day - so doing something every day, and two workouts a day on 5 days. I am building run…

Im trying this stuff out (unflavoured), seems fine to me, price is good, just eat some fruit n veg for Vitamin C :slight_smile: I ride early mornings (4am) and do overnight oats to eat before I jump on the bike. I just mix half a scoop (~12g) into my overnight oats as im about to eat them. Im always…

Wow this looks fantastic - Thanks! I’ll give it a whirl. Let me know how you go.

Is this based on this https://academic.oup.com/ajcn/article/105/1/136/4569849 ? Have anyone read other studies thats confirms it. And hard to prove thats it really is needed. More protein in general might give the same effect and be cheaper.

@Chad discussed it in the podcast - you just need 50mg of Vit C in order to absorb the collagen. Can’t remember where he got that reference from sorry. I’d go back and listen to the episode if you haven’t yet.

Dont have to, its proberbly the link I posted. I read it a few years ago and its seems like to much money for something that hard to prove anyways.

I’ve been using Myprotein Collagen protein powder, Chocolate flavour, exactly the same as taking a whey shake. As far as I remember it was reasonably cheap, but there’s no mention of the types of collagen used, and there’s a fair bit of sweetener in there (which I’m overlooking for now). Again, can…

It is not that study, there are multiple linked in the episode notes. Chad went quite deep into some of them in the episode [image] Stage Racing Insights, Multi-Sport Training Camps, Collagen and More – Ask a Cycling Coach 248 Ask a Cycling Coach Podcast Nutri…

When I started using collagen I found my sleep improved a tonne. My back paint (aero position) has gone away. I found Natures Way Joint Collagen is stocked at most pharmacies and only costs AU$15 to 18 a month.

Collagen recommendations in Australia?
