Most adults take 10 g per day. Research commonly uses 2.5-15 g daily, depending on the goal and the duration of use. Nuda's standard serving is 10 g for Marine and 13 g for Bovine. If you are new to collagen, start at 5-10 g and assess tolerance.
Goals-based ranges
| Goal | Daily amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| General wellbeing | 5-10 g | Easy to keep up every day. |
| Skin and hair support | about 10 g | Be consistent and review after several weeks. |
| Joints and mobility | 10-15 g | Consider splitting the dose morning and evening. |
| High training load | 10-15 g | Pair with adequate protein and hydration. |
Tip: use a kitchen scale to measure accurately.
Timing
- You can take collagen any time of day.
- It mixes well into water, coffee, tea, smoothies or yoghurt.
- Warm and cold drinks both work.
Marine or bovine: does dosage change?
No. The dose is the same. Choose between marine and bovine by diet, allergens, taste and sourcing rather than by amount.
Vitamin C note
Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation. Many people pair collagen with foods rich in Vitamin C, such as citrus or berries.
Who should seek advice first
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a diagnosed medical condition, take prescribed medication, or have fish allergy (for marine collagen), speak to a healthcare professional before use.
