How much collagen should a woman over 70 take per day?

There's no official recommended amount. Studies on skin and joints have generally used between 2.5 g and 10 g a day. Collagen is the raw material skin and bones lean on, and vitamin C helps your body build it. Vyelle provides 5,000 mg (5 g) per scoop, within the studied range.

Is more collagen better after 70?

Not really. Within the studied range, taking it consistently matters more than a large dose, and there's no good evidence that far more than 10 g a day does more. Your body uses collagen as a raw material at the rate it needs it.

Can you take marine collagen with a fish allergy?

No. Marine collagen is made from fish, so anyone with a fish allergy should avoid it. Vyelle's collagen is marine and isn't suitable if you're allergic to fish; bovine collagen is an alternative for others.

How Much Collagen Per Day for Women Over 70?

There's no official recommended daily amount for collagen. Studies looking at skin and joints have generally used somewhere between 2.5 g and 10 g a day. Collagen is simply the raw material your skin and bones lean on, and vitamin C helps your body build it. Vyelle provides 5,000 mg (5 g) of marine collagen per scoop.

Is there a recommended collagen dose?

No. Collagen is a protein you eat, not an essential vitamin or mineral with a set daily requirement, so there's no official recommended amount and no upper limit in the way there is for, say, vitamin D or zinc. What we have instead is the amount used in research: studies looking at skin and joint comfort have generally landed somewhere between 2.5 g and 10 g a day.

Does more collagen help after 70?

Within that studied range, taking it consistently matters more than chasing a big number. There's no good evidence that piling on far more than 10 g a day does more — your body can only use collagen as a raw material at the rate it needs it. Collagen is the raw material skin and bones lean on; giving your body a steady, sensible daily supply is the point, not a heroic dose.

Collagen needs vitamin C

Here's the part people miss. Collagen is the raw material, and vitamin C is what helps your body actually build collagen from it — so the two work together. A collagen supplement paired with vitamin C makes more sense than collagen alone, which is why a well-designed formula includes both rather than leaving you to add vitamin C separately.

Marine collagen and fish allergy

Most collagen is either marine (from fish) or bovine (from cattle). Both are simply collagen. If you have a fish allergy, avoid marine collagen — Vyelle's collagen is marine, so it isn't suitable for anyone allergic to fish. Otherwise the choice comes down to preference.

Food and absorption come first at 70+

Appetites often shrink after 70, and protein overall tends to fall short — which matters more than any single supplement. Collagen is a top-up, not a meal: it works best alongside enough total protein and a varied diet, not in place of them. If eating has become difficult or weight is dropping, that's worth a GP conversation in its own right.

How much collagen is in Vyelle
