You recall that classic 70’s song by Five Man Electrical Band. Fast forward 50 years, it’s now:

♫ Supplement Supplement, Everywhere a Supplement ♫

Supplements are no doubt, overtaking grocery stores and online retailers. And they have a new poster child: COLLAGEN.

Collagen. So hot right now.

Collagen Market: So Hot Right Now

But, why?

Collagen is a protein and it’s everywhere in mammals — including us, humans! However, our bodies start to decrease collagen production around 25 years of age. This is a problem for our joints, ligaments, tendons, and the ever-so-popular beauty factor (hair, skin, nails).

Of course, this isn’t a problem if you’ve been eating foods high in collagen. But, and unfortunately, most of us don’t drink bone broth and eat organ meats regularly — and if you have, congrats on replenishing your declining collagen and being in the top 1% of people that eat this way!

This is why collagen supplements exist today. And why they’re growing. Scoop of collagen powder in my coffee or cook up a cow’s second stomach? Hmmm. Since collagen can be taken at really any age, most of us will opt for that supplement.

And the data proves it.

Below are some of the most compelling collagen market growth statistics and trends. Thank you to these wonderful sources for doing the research and providing this data!
