Transcripts
i have been taking vital proteins
collagen peptides as well as a couple
other collagen supplements for every
single day now for just over a year it's
been about a year and three months maybe
a year and four months and today i want
to share with you my results this video
is going to be three parts the first
part i'm gonna answer some questions i
made a video very similar to this at the
six month mark a lot of questions came
up and there were a few that came up
repetitively so i'm gonna answer a few
of those today part two i'm gonna share
with you my results over the last just
over a year of taking this consistently
every day
and part three i'm gonna share with you
other people's results that they've
shared with me so you're not just
hearing it from me okay let's jump into
part one the questions a lot of these
questions came up repetitively the first
question is which one are you taking and
even though i mentioned i've been taking
vital proteins collagen peptides that
question comes up but but i understand
we're all moving really fast we're
clicking through things and you know
sometimes it's just we just don't get it
all right so be very clear
most of the time in the last 15 months
or so i've been taking
vital proteins collagen peptides their
natural unflavored version i've also
been taking their chocolate version the
vital proteins collagen peptides
chocolate version so the majority of the
time these are the ones that i've been
taking i have also taken the ancient
nutrition multi-collagen protein ah that
was probably like two months out of the
last 15
and i have also taken wholesome wellness
called multi-collagen that was probably
i think about a month and i have review
videos on all of these on this channel
if you want to check them out i'll link
them in the description below again for
the majority of the time probably 11
months out of the last 15 have has been
vital proteins collagen peptides
question number two how much have you
been taking i've just been following the
directions on the container so whatever
the container says now if we look at
this the natural flavored version the
collagen peptides the directions say one
to two scoops the serving size when we
look at the nutritional facts it says
the serving is one serving is two scoops
so i've been taking two scoops of this
whenever i take this the chocolate
flavored version the serving size is two
scoops and the directions say take two
scoops so i've been doing that i think
ancient nutrition they say one scoop
that's what i did when i took ancient
nutrition i can't remember what
wholesome wellness was either way to
answer that question how much do you
take i just follow the directions on the
container the next question is when do
you take it
we have to understand that this is
protein it's a protein powder think of
it as food so you can take it pretty
much any time you want i don't know that
there's going to be one time of the day
that's that's significantly better than
another time of the day you could take
it with an empty stomach you can take it
with food you could take it in the
morning take it in the afternoon take it
at night whatever works best for you i
personally take it in the morning that's
what's been working for me i enjoy
taking it in the morning it doesn't
really matter when you take it except
for when we get to the next question
will it break a fast and the answer is
yes it will break a fast if you take two
scoops of this it's about 70 calories we
also have to remember that it's lean
protein and lean protein will break a
fast the chocolate version
is uh each serving is 90 calories so and
of course it's lean protein as well and
it will break a fast so if you're taking
collagen supplement and you're doing
intermittent fasting
you want to make sure that you're either
doing it at the beginning of your fast
or at the end of your fast and or during
your eating window but not during your
fast because it will break a fast now if
you're doing keto now these don't they
don't have sugar and they don't have
carbs and everything so from that
standpoint you can be
take this on a ketogenic diet if you're
if you're following a ketogenic
lifestyle you can take it i would
recommend adding a little bit of fat
when you do like for example if i'm
using this chocolate version i keep
reaching for this i will make like a hot
chocolate and i will add a little heavy
cream and you know i the the heavy cream
will dampen the insulin effect that the
lean protein might have so just just a
tip i don't think it's absolutely
necessary but i've been doing it this
whole time so i might as well mention
that as well okay the next question this
one has come up actually a couple of
times is this a paid promotion the
answer is no i mean i am just this tiny
little youtuber right
this little youtube guy have a handful
of subscribers if you're one of them
thank you so much if you're not maybe
you'll consider joining me that would be
awesome none of these companies know who
i am
none of them have contacted me i just
you know was thinking about taking it
one day and i thought i would try it
i've had a good experience so i thought
i wanted to share it with everyone so i
decided to make a video all right that
does it for part one let's go to part
two
the results so over the last year i've
noticed a few things and there are some
of these things i noticed back at the
six month mark and we're going to talk
about those today the first one being
fingernails
that was the first thing that i kind of
really tangibly noticed was my
fingernails were growing super super
fast i mentioned that at the six month
mark that has not changed i was trying
to quantify yeah even right now i'm
looking at them they need to be cut you
probably can't see that
but
yeah they're just getting really too
long i need to cut them today so i've
noticed that i have to cut my
fingernails every single week
and that is very tangible evidence that
the supplement is definitely making a
difference my fingernails are super
super strong they grow really fast
they're very healthy and i don't know i
guess they look pretty cool to me it's
annoying because i gotta cut them all
the time i was trying to quantify
you know how how much faster are they
really growing easily three times faster
so if fingernails are important to you
you may want to consider
taking a collagen supplement and see if
it makes a difference the next thing i
noticed was my hair
and i mentioned this at the six month
mark i went to the to get my hair cut
the person they go to very regularly and
for the first time he started saying wow
your hair is growing really fast what
are you doing i actually said that right
and that that has not changed my hair
continues to grow and i want to say
probably easily twice as fast as it used
to i i have to go to the hair get a
haircut every month at least and maybe
that's normal for most people but for me
previously it would be probably every
once every two months somewhere around
there it grows crazy i gotta go get a
haircut right now the one thing that i
did mention at six months was i
wondering i wonder if collagen will slow
down my hair loss because i'm i'm losing
my hair it is falling out i am fighting
an uphill genetic battle right all of my
brothers i have three brothers all of
them are bald my older brother two years
older than me bald my younger brother
two years younger than me bald our
youngest brother seven years younger
than me bald he lost his hair at age 28.
so i'm next on the list right and it is
falling out you can see it's all thin up
in here you can see already yeah if you
could see that that
you know bald spot right there it does
weigh on me right uh but that said i'm
51 i still have hair a little bit
anyways and
all my none of my brothers do oh one
thing you know people ask is it make
your hair thicker and you'll see when we
get to other people's results that many
people say that it does i don't know
that i've noticed that now again it's
hard to tell my
as my hair is falling out my hair has
always been very very fine like very
very thin the strands themselves i don't
know if they're getting thicker i don't
think they are so if anyone's wondering
that that's been my experience so that
brings us to skin so i don't have
awesome skin i i i've never been accused
of having wow your skin is so amazing
it's just it's just not me right i might
i spent a lot of time in the sun i
mentioned that before it looks like i
spent a lot of time in the sun i've got
wrinkles everywhere i've got this big
old brown spot on my forehead i've got
moles and everything um yeah
just not you know poster worthy material
however i i do feel like there's been a
difference very slight difference you
know some people say oh you look way
better than you did a year ago and
i hope that's true i think that's true i
personally notice a subtle difference
when i look in the mirror each day it's
hard because sometimes i look in the
mirror and all i can see are the
wrinkles like man you're looking old but
i will say that i feel like my skin is a
little tighter i feel like my skin is
less oily and i feel like the wrinkles
are becoming a little less deep and
that's very subjective but i didn't
start taking collagen because i wanted
my skin to look better because i thought
it would make me look like i was in my
20s but i do think it has made a little
bit of a difference and if that's
important to you you're going to hear
about some other people at towards the
end of this video in part three where
they they they've had a much more
significant uh uh effect on their skin
all right so here's the one that i
really wanted to talk with you about the
whole reason i wanted to take collagen
to begin with one i'm getting older and
two you know i do a lot of trail running
over very difficult very rocky terrain a
lot of times you know you'll feel some
pain in your knees pain in your joints
going keto i have to say going keto
reduce that almost to zero
it's amazing but still i wanted to know
could i take it a step further i'm
getting older you know my joints are uh
certainly getting older right along with
me so i thought maybe if i took some
collagen it could take it up just
another level right and i i'm happy to
report that it has and i noticed that in
a big way on a training run earlier this
year one thing i want to add as i'm
running down this
very
rocky terrain
is that my knees and joints feel really
good i've been out here for several
hours now over the last several months
like eight months i've been taking a
collagen supplement every single day
because i thought it would help with my
joints oh man i just realized today
the significant impact that it has had
i'm very actually very happy i knew it
was helping
i am running i'm feeling awesome my
knees feel great and
that is so cool
and i can i can uh directly link it to
to that because that's the one thing
i've changed hey if you're liking
today's video please hit the like button
that would be awesome
all right so the whole reason i wanted
to take collagen to begin with right i
saw this supplement i wanted to take it
is it gonna work and i'm very happy that
for me it has it's been making a
difference so for that reason i'm going
to continue to take vital proteins
collagen peptides on a regular basis
maybe one day i'll try a different one
maybe one day i'll switch it out try
something new and switch to that on a
regular basis but for now it's going to
be vital proteins collagen peptides
every day moving forward so i'm very
very happy with the results okay that
does it for part two let's get into part
three other people's results so this
last video the the last um that little
clip that i showed you of running i
posted that that was from a video on my
other channel it's a
live true with jt i do uh
chronicling or documenting my training
for the grand canyon going to the grand
canyon doing the running stuff like that
right after i posted that matthew wall
mentioned i also have been supplementing
collagen and similar results last year i
hiked with knee braces and no longer
need them even ran a marathon this last
january without them that's pretty
awesome leonard hollerbach says me and
my wife are doing a strict form of paleo
at the same time we took two scoops of
natural flavored vital proteins 11
months strong i feel that helps with our
skin we are hoping since we both lost a
lot of weight that it helps bounce back
the skin and we feel it is my hair is
growing wild next we have lisa aberdeen
nicholas hi everyone i am 53 and have
been taking this for three months now
the first thing i noticed in about two
weeks is that my skin is more
moisturized and softer and today i can
say that my joint pain has been
considerably reduced it really works
shelly husky says i've been taking
collagen off and on for a few years and
it does make a difference recently i
realized that my fingernails were
breaking and splitting like when i was
younger and i had
not been taking it for a while i had run
out of it and never replaced it so i
added it back to my daily regime it
improves my skin's appearance too nancy
watkins says i am 56 and have been
adding about half a scoop to my protein
powder shakes each morning for a year
with that amount i have noticed several
benefits my hair is a little thicker and
grows faster okay so she has experienced
her hair getting thin or thicker right
whereas i have don't think i have my
skin isn't as dry and i've noticed fine
lines on my face are less noticeable
have recommended this to several friends
i hope it's adding strength to my bones
as i age i feel like my joints are less
achy after walks that's awesome nancy
anna geisenhof and i hope i'm saying
your name correctly geisenhof i have
also been taking this for a while and
have noticed my thin hair and
fingernails growing and looking better
my skin is looking better as well i too
as a sun worshiper in my younger days
and people are always surprised to hear
that i have children that are in my that
are around 30 years old i'm 54. philip
jc1 says i've been taking it for over a
year he's talking about vital proteins
no improvement in anything change to
ancient nutrition now seeing results in
gut and joints it if it doesn't work for
you change to something else experiment
so one thing i want to point out there
on philip's comment is that ancient
nutrition
collagen is a multi-collagen protein so
there are different types of collagen
that's why he's probably noticing the
improvement in his gut i think that's
awesome so again like he says hey if it
doesn't work for you maybe try something
else there's a it's there's a lot that
goes into how well your body uses
collagen which is beyond the scope of
this video but um it's important to
remember kristen rigby i take both of
these too she's talking about the
chocolate and the unflavored version of
vital proteins i used to run
ultramarathons too i don't run at all
anymore i weight lift and rock climb now
i started doing keto before my first
100k as a climber i noticed my
fingernails growing fast with the
collagen and my hairdresser frequently
comments at how fast my hair grows i
have beautiful hair now that's awesome
ben lehmann says i can put my
recommendation in the ring too i'm a 38
year old power lifter and i was starting
to notice my body not agreeing with me
anymore my knee clicked my hips were so
tight i was walking like john wayne and
my lower back was in permanent pain i've
been adding a tablespoon in my regular
shakes for a few months and all pain has
gone away that's awesome i was dubious
when it was first suggested to me but
it's incredible see just like me i was a
little skeptical and he kind of felt the
same way but then but now his experience
has been similar it's incredible that's
awesome in addition like one of your
videos i had a small cyst in my eyebrow
it has also completely gone so somebody
else commented that they had a cyst
uh and had been there for years and they
started taking collagen and it went away
wow that's pretty cool and that's what
he's talking about barbed wire b says i
notice nothing my hair won't grow my
nails don't my skin has always been good
joint pain i have noticed but that's all
so she hasn't noticed the other things
like the skin the nails and the hair but
she has noticed her joint pain reducing
and again this points out that everybody
has a different experience we're all
eating different things we all have
different habits so when we make a habit
change when we decide to do something
new we're going to have our experience
will be varied miss muller says hi i
have been taking vital protein collagen
for one year and six months huge
difference with my joints my skin and
wrinkles around my eyes and upper lips i
am 43 years old i have also noticed a
difference with my energy great product
krista nicoley says i have been taking
vital proteins collagen peptides for
probably four to five months now i just
turned 25 in january and i love it i did
not pay attention to results just took

faster my hair nails grew good before
