0:00.0 | Welcome back to the Barbell Medicine podcast. |
0:07.2 | I'm Dr. Jordan Fagenbaum. |
0:08.6 | Today, on Episode 250, we're going to talk about collagen protein and if it's a good idea |
0:13.0 | to supplement it. |
0:14.0 | First off, what is collagen? |
0:15.9 | So collagen is a protein molecule made up of amino acids. |
0:19.4 | It provides structural support to connective tissues, which are things like ligaments, tendons, |
0:23.0 | bone, and cartilage. |
0:24.2 | For example, tendons are composed of approximately 65 to 80% collagen protein. |
0:28.9 | And there are other types of collagen found in other organs and body tissues. |
0:32.8 | Technically speaking, blood is a specialized connective tissue, but for the purposes |
0:35.9 | of this discussion, we'll ignore it. |
0:37.9 | There are 28 different types of collagen in the human body, but by far, type one is the |
0:41.8 | most common, making up 90% of all collagen in the human body. |
0:46.5 | Changes in collagen have been associated with altered function of various tissues. |
0:50.5 | For example, the loss or degeneration of collagen in the skin tends to reduce elasticity |
0:55.0 | and promote the development of wrinkles. |
0:57.0 | And some suggest that reduced or altered collagen content in tendons and ligaments are associated |
1:01.2 | with pain or reduced function. |
1:03.2 | Given the ubiquity of collagen in the human body, it should come as no surprise that many |
1:07.0 | claim supplemental collagen can improve the function of these collagen containing tissues. |
1:10.8 | In this episode of the Barbell Medicine podcast, we're going to dive deep into the research |
