Consistency Is Key: Your Guide to Collagen Dosage

How Much Collagen to Take and Why Consistency Is Key

 

When it comes to collagen, more isn’t always better. What actually makes the difference is taking the right amount, consistently, in a way your body can absorb well. That’s exactly how we’ve designed Vigor Collagen to be used.


How much collagen should you take per day? 

Each pouch of Vigor Collagen contains 248g, which is intentionally formulated to last 31 days. Our recommended daily dose is 8g, which works out at roughly 3 teaspoons per day.

This dosage has been carefully chosen to support your skin, hair, nails, joints, muscles and gut health without pushing unnecessary mega doses that your body may not fully utilise.


Can your body absorb more than 8g of Collagen?

Your body can absorb up to around 15g of collagen per day, but absorption isn’t just about the total amount, it’s also about how you take it.

Many people find collagen is better tolerated and absorbed when it’s staggered across the day, rather than taken all at once. Smaller, well-spaced doses allow your body to process and utilise the amino acids more efficiently. This is why some customers choose to split their daily intake between morning and afternoon.


Why the Vigor Collagen blend matters

A daily Vigor Collagen dose provides the perfect balance of 4g wild-caught marine collagen and 4g grass-fed bovine collagen. This combination delivers both type 1 and 3 collagen; a combination that is particularly beneficial for skin elasticity, hair and nail strength, joint comfort, muscle recovery and gut health.

It’s a generous, premium collagen blend that’s focused on quality and function, not inflated numbers for marketing purposes.


Why consistency beats mega dosing

Collagen works best when it’s taken daily, over time. Think of it as a long-term investment rather than a quick fix. Regular intake allows collagen building blocks to support ongoing repair and renewal processes throughout the body.

Missing days or taking large amounts sporadically is far less effective than sticking to a consistent, sensible daily dose.


Introducing the Vigor Collagen scoop

To make daily dosing even easier, we’re introducing the Vigor Collagen scoop.

This is a beautifully engraved, stainless steel, re-usable scoop, designed to help you measure your collagen accurately and stay consistent, without relying on plastic or disposable tools. It aligns perfectly with our values of sustainability, longevity and thoughtful design.
