Our Klean Collagen+C powder can play an important role in your fitness journey, fuelling your foundation to help you to perform at your peak.‡
But are you aware of the important role that collagen can play in supporting your bones, joints, and connective tissues?‡
Collagen is a type of protein that can form a secondary structure that is helical, which makes it strong, resilient, and dense. Collagen doesn’t dissolve once ingested, making it incredibly robust.
Collagen differs from other types of protein, as it is rich in three amino acids in particular – glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline – which are known for their benefits for connective tissue, as well as hair, skin, and nails.‡
Collagen plays an important role in strengthening and maintaining connective tissue throughout the body, helping to provide it with structure and rigidity, particularly where the following areas are concerned:‡
As we get older, our bodies tend to break down collagen at a faster rate than we can produce it.
Inflammation can also affect collagen production, and athletes’ bodies can be especially prone to this.
This is why many choose to take collagen supplements to provide their bodies with extra support to help fuel their performance.‡
Increasing the levels of collagen peptides in your body can help to promote collagen production, helping you to support your connective tissues.‡
This means that taking collagen supplements could help to relieve discomfort in the tendons and joints following a high-intensity training session, as well as potentially helping to improve mobility.‡
Klean Collagen+C is a collagen dietary supplement that provides you with 15g of bioavailable collagen per serving, along with 50mg vitamin C.
Our collagen powder is designed to:
We recommend using Klean Collagen+C one hour before exercise for maximum results.‡
However, if you use the powder at another time of day, you will still experience its benefits.‡
For a tasty pre-workout collagen hit, dissolve one scoop of Klean Collagen+C into a smoothie, herbal tea, shake, or juice. For something a little bit different, you could also freeze it as part of a homemade ice lolly or slushie – ideal for keeping you cool before an intense workout on a hot day.
Klean Collagen+C can be used alongside other products from the NSF Certified for Sport® Klean Athlete range, including Klean Isolate, Klean Creatine, Klean Recovery and Klean Hydration.
