Collagen Shines in Latest Data

From eNewsletter 6/22/2026

DID YOU KNOW that a study from Frontiers in Nutrition provided evidence that four weeks of high-dose collagen peptide supplementation favorably modulates bone formation and inflammatory signaling in premenopausal women?

Collagen intake increased P1NP (blood marker for bone formation) without altering CTX (bone marker for bone breakdown), suggesting a formation-driven response, and was accompanied by stabilization of the sRANKL/OPG ratio and a reduction in circulating IL-6 (an inflammatory marker).

Steve - I love this study because they used two tests I commonly recommend to clients beyond just a DEXA scan: P1NP and CTX.
