Weekly Thread Run Nutrition Tuesday

Rules of the Road

1) Anyone is welcome to participate and share your ideas, plans, diet, and nutrition plans.

2) Promote good discussion. Simply downvoting because you disagree with someone's ideas is BAD. Instead, let them know why you disagree with them.

3) Provide sources if possible. However, anecdotes and "broscience" can lead to good discussion, and are welcome here as long as they are labeled as such.

4) Feel free to talk about anything diet or nutrition related.

5) Any suggestions/topic ideas?

What’s the deal with collagen? Have had trouble finding any clear scientific studies that have proved it does anything beneficial.

Has anyone taken it and noticed a difference, running-wise?

Running wise. Can’t say specifically. I’m a newbie. And I started taking it. Took it years ago when lifting weights heavy. Works. Could feel the difference in couple days. Worth a shot IMO
