600mg MARINE COLLAGEN per serving
Applied Nutrition Collagen & Coconut is a 180-capsule beauty and joint support blend built for trainees who want marine collagen in a convenient capsule format alongside coconut oil MCTs and the vitamin C cofactor required for collagen synthesis. Each serving delivers 600mg of marine collagen, 250mg of coconut oil and 80mg of vitamin C. The bottle provides 60 servings.
Marine collagen at 600mg sources type I collagen peptides from wild-caught fish - the same collagen type that makes up the majority of skin, joint connective tissue and bone matrix. The 600mg dose sits at the lower end of research ranges (which typically use 2.5-10g per day), reflecting the capsule-format trade-off versus a powder. Vitamin C at 80mg (100% NRV) provides the cofactor required for endogenous collagen synthesis - vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of bones, cartilage, skin, gums, teeth and blood vessels (EFSA-authorised). Coconut oil at 250mg adds medium-chain triglycerides.
What separates Collagen & Coconut from a marine collagen powder is the format. The capsule format suits trainees who travel, who don't want a flavoured powder mixed into water, or who simply prefer swallowable supplements. The trade-off is dose: at 600mg per serving, you'd need 4-15 servings daily to match the powder doses typically used in collagen research. The capsule format works as a daily top-up rather than a clinical-dose primary source.
Collagen & Coconut suits trainees who want collagen supplementation in convenient capsule format for travel or routine consistency, athletes managing joint health alongside training, and anyone using collagen as a daily top-up rather than the sole protein source. Not the right pick for users wanting clinical-research dose - a powder format gives more grams per scoop at lower cost. Contains fish.
Powder alternative: The Health Project Collagen Powder 300g delivers Type I and III collagen peptides at clinical doses from an own-brand supplier.
