Which Collagen Supplement Is Best?

Choosing the best collagen supplement depends on two key factors: the source of collagen and the type of collagen peptides. Understanding these differences helps you select the right product for your skin, hair, nails, bones, and joints.

Animal Collagen vs. Marine Collagen

Collagen supplements are usually made from animal sources (beef, pork, chicken) or marine sources (fish, shellfish). Both provide benefits, but marine collagen has distinct advantages:

    Better absorption

    Marine collagen peptides have a much lower molecular weight, making them easier for the body to absorb.

    Sustainability

    Made from fish by-products, marine collagen supports an eco-friendly, waste-reducing food system.

  • Pure marine collagen powder dissolves in a green smoothie

    Diet-friendly

    Suitable for paleo and most other diets.

Marine collagen powder is considered the best choice for skin, hair, nails, and anti-aging support.

Types of Collagen: I, II, III

There are 28 known collagen types, but the most important for health and beauty are:

  • Type I (≈75%) – Found in skin, bones, tendons. Supports firmness, elasticity, anti-aging.
  • Type II (≈10%) – Found in cartilage. Essential for joint health and mobility.
  • Type III (≈15%) – Works alongside Type I. Supports skin elasticity and cardiovascular health.

    Collagen powder can be easily added to smoothies, soups, or even matcha tea.
