Yes, Collagen is a foundational protein involved in the building and regeneration of Connective Tissues- Bones, cartilage, tendons, muscles and skin. Collagen body production tends to decrease as people get older but supplementation can help with some restoration as early as 4 to 6 weeks but usually takes up to 6 months and longer to appreciate all the recovery effects.
