When it comes to physical performance, increasing endurance is of huge concern to many athletes. In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, made in partnership with GELITA, we take a closer look at an ingredient that is making waves in the world of sports nutrition: collagen. Although most of us will be familiar with its potential benefits to skin health, its allure extends far beyond aesthetics, especially for athletes. From its role in enhancing muscle recovery and growth, to its impact on bolstering joint health, collagen is emerging as a game-changer for sports performance both on and off the field. And with athletes constantly pushing their bodies to the limit, collagen could provide the extra endurance needed in striving for that personal best. But what does the science say? Do collagen supplements have the potential to revolutionise athletic performance? And how can it be used to optimise training and endurance?
