KEY TAKEAWAYS

Around the cell is an amazing structure and collagen is the major protein in this matrix
The building of tissue is very sport specific
Loading is a positive thing for the body and makes it structurally stronger, it’s how you load that makes the difference
We don’t absorb the collagen molecule itself we absorb the collagen peptide
Take it as naturally as you can and stay away from tea and coffee around the time of taking
You can increase collagen production by taking collagen peptides
When cartilage cells are surrounded by collagen peptides they absorb it and also produce the right type of collagen
Collagen peptide can be taken at any point throughout the day, the most important thing is that it’s taken regularly
Research indicates cartilage is affected by a lack of sleep but once it’s in your body it's used as needed and there are no side effects
It’s a nutritional supplement so it’s important to take it every day
Taking  in protein first thing in the day makes a huge difference to cognitive function

 
BEST MOMENTS
‘It’s about measuring where the sweet spot is and this can be dependent on genetics and previous injury
‘How we load is the real art in sports’
‘It’s not only clever in absorbing the collagen it’s also clever in producing the type of collagen you need to produce’
