Study
Shaw et al. (2017) — Human study evaluating vitamin C-enriched gelatin supplementation and markers of collagen synthesis around activity.
Study design
Participants consumed vitamin C-enriched gelatin before activity designed to load connective tissue. Researchers then measured markers related to collagen synthesis.
Findings
The study reported higher markers related to collagen synthesis following the vitamin C-enriched gelatin strategy.
Relevance to Magic You
Every Magic You formula combines collagen peptides with vitamin C. This study provides human research on the collagen-building response when collagen-derived amino acids and vitamin C are supplied around physical activity.
