- Welcome to day 15 of one small thing challenge for osteoporosis awareness month. Today, we'll be discussing the importance of collagen in our supplement regimen and its impact on bone health.
Adding collagen to your daily routine is a fantastic way to support your bone health. It's a nutrient that is often overlooked but has a significant impact on maintaining strong and healthy bones.
I look forward to having you join me for Day 14 of the Osteoporosis Awareness Challenge. Let's prioritize our bone health together!
I have three examles of collagen supplement that contains Fortibone at the following links. As an FYI, I am an Amazon affiliate and will receive a small commission if you purchase any of these books using these links.

Dr. Mary Claire Haver recommends Fortibone, so I've started taking it (from Sparkle Wellness). I also have lupus, so I hope it has additional benefits for me.
Making sure that you get enough protein will be good for your whole body ❤
Ach, I'm in a quandary: I'm vegan. I think I need to supplement, however, and I'm considering . . a marine collagen. Would this be helpfultoo? I'm not sure if it would be as bioavailable. Have you seen any research re: marine collagen? Many thanks for all your good works!
You can get what you need on a vegan diet. I think supplementing is a safe good option to ensure you are getting everything you need. I have heard good things about marine forms of collagen. Below is a link to a medical study about marine collagen that you might want to check out. ❤

Is protein powder better than Collagen. I take Hydroylysed Protein in it. Not Marine in it. As Ive just read what that lady said when she became ill on the product she was on. Mine has. 19 percent Protein and 20 percent Collagen.But it does sa y Hydrolysed Collagen Protein.Are these safe to take Thank you ❤
If I were going to take one, I would choose to take a protein powder with a complete amino acid profile. Collagen can be a good thing, but in general they don't have a complete amino acid profile. Our bodies need all the building blocks they get from amino acids so it is helpful to have all of them. I hope that helps ❤
Be careful with collagen supplements. I suddenly developed shocking joint pain 5 days after starting on expensive marine collagen supplement powder. Collagen supplements are full of hydroxyproline, very high oxalate, and it can cause a lot of problems for some of us. I have been diagnosed with Polymyalgia Rheumatica, and the thing that caused it was the marine collagen supplement, I have no doubt. If you develop any new symptoms after starting on collagen supplements, be sure to stop it right away. I naively believed the seller's assurance that continuing with the collagen would HELP, and took it for a full month before the penny dropped and I sought medical help.
I am so sorry that you had this experience! I am impressed that you had the courage to listen to your body and follow your instincts and get help ❤
I've been thinking of stopping buying collagen because it's just so expensive and I've asked myself am I better off spending that money on food instead? I already take other supplements for my bones and protein, and I will be honest collagen does taste so gross! Even the chocolate ones have that weird nasty taste! I used to eat collagen rich foods like pork feet pork ears pork snout beef feet
But I stopped eating that stuff because well not just because I don't like eating that stuff but the hassle of cooking it and all the other stuff that comes with it I don't have access to high-quality, but if it benefits my bones is it worth taking collagen if it really does help with bone density? Or are there other foods that can help just as much as collagen?
The best way is to get as much of our nutrients from food as possible and then to supplement where we have gaps in what we eat and what our bodies need. If you are able to get complete proteins from the foods that you eat, you may not need to supplement collagen. The other thing to consider is protein powder. If you can get a protein powder with a complete amino acid profile that may be a better choice than collagen because collagen does not have a complete amino acid profile. I hope that helps ❤
@@sarahmapes_bonebuildersystem Aw awesome so it's not necessary to spend that extra money on a collagen supplement then? This is great because they're so expensive and like I mentioned earlier they taste awful LOL I remember when I first got diagnosed with osteoporosis there was a lot of buzz going around collagen a lot of people were saying collagen helps reverse osteoporosis but over time I felt kind of skeptical about that because now I've been hearing that creatine supplements help with bone density but I've also heard they don't, at the moment I can't spend my extra money on either creatine or collagen but if I can do just enough with diet and protein supplements alone and my strength training then hopefully I'm on the right path even without collagen and creatine supplements 🙏🏻
What about Ancient Nutrition collagen?
Shannon, I am not sure which one you are refferring to specifically. I just went and had a look around at their website. In the unflavored multi collagen protein there are a lot of good things going on. It has vitmain C in it which is helpful for absorbing collagen along with a variety of good sources for protein including chicken, fish, and egg shells. All of those are good things to include in a collagen. I am going to say that this one looks pretty good ❤
Hard to find what is different about Fortibone as opposed to other type 1 and 3 collagen peptides. Just because that was the brand that was studied doesn’t mean that other brands using the same types of collagen wouldn’t work just as well to improve bone density. The Nature’s Path with Foribone is more expensive than my brand and I’m guessing that you are paying for the study. I don’t know how a natural substance can be patented unless it has been adulterated in a laboratory in which case it is no longer natural.
I am sure you are right that when you buy Fortibone you are buying at a premium...
I am wondering if I should do a follow up video sharing about the different types of collagen. Type 1 and 3 collagen both help our skin, hair and nails. Type 2 collagen helps our joints and cartilage and other areas inside our bodies. That is the general overview. What is specifically inside the Fortibone mix is likley a form of collagen type 2. Hopefully that helps in looking at what is in the collagen you are currently using ❤
@@sarahmapes_bonebuildersystem the Fortibone study used type 1 collagen. Interesting is that until a couple of decades ago, type 2 collagen was injected into lab rats and fed to lab pigs to induce chronic arthritis so it could be studied. More information re collagen induced arthritis can be found at: The genetic and immunopathological processes underlying collagen-induced arthritis. Jeff A Luross and Neil A Williams

I looked at the Nature Path site and it said that their collagen only had type 1 and 3, the same as my brand. I’ve heard that these are the types that are good for osteoporosis, and I think it’s because it was what was used in theFortibone study.
@@wandayonder9772 That is interesting
