Collagen Benefits | Why Men Need More Collagen Than Women | Muscle Growth & Recovery- Thomas DeLauer

Hair, Skin & Nails:
Study - Skin Research and Technology

Subjects comprised 173 men and women, divided into four groups according to age.

Photographs were taken from nine facial regions and used to classify the intensity of wrinkles into five grades.

In all age groups, men showed increased forehead wrinkles compared with women.

In contrast, no gender-dependent differences were found in upper eyelid wrinkles. Other facial wrinkles were greater in men than in women in all except the oldest group (age, 65-75 years), in which wrinkles in women were greater than or equal to those in men.

Results showed that gender-dependent differences exist in the degree of facial wrinkles - but, in general, men tend to have more severe wrinkles than women.

This tendency disappeared or was reversed in some regions of the face and in individuals more than 60 years old.

Recovery:
Muscle Fibers-

A study published in Experimental Physiology found that with strength training women’s muscle fibers are converted to type I fibers, whereas in men they generally change to type IIa fibers.

Type I muscle fibers are more efficient over long periods of time - mainly used for postural maintenance (such as holding the head upright), or endurance exercises (like marathon running).

Type II muscle fibers use anaerobic respiration and are better for short bursts of speed.

The result is that women are more resistant to fatigue than men, even when women and men with the same strength level are compared.

Muscle Mass:
Between 1–10% of muscle tissue is composed of collagen, and, as such, it is necessary to keep your muscles strong and functioning properly

Study - British Journal of Nutrition

In one study, 27 frail men took 15 grams of collagen while participating in an exercise program daily for 12 weeks.

Compared to men who exercised but did not take collagen, they gained significantly more muscle mass and strength.

Aside from collagen comprising muscle tissue, researchers also concluded that collagen may have improved strength gains due to its positive effect on creatine production.

Collagen contains relatively high amounts of arginine and glycine, both known to be important substrates for the synthesis of creatine in the human body.

Brain Health:
Study - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS)

The study found that women's brains appear to be about three years younger than men of the same chronological age.

Found that brain ages are an average of 3.8 years younger than the women's chronological ages - men's brains were 2.4 years older than their true ages.

Collagen & Joints:
Collagen helps maintain the integrity of your cartilage, which is the rubber-like tissue that protects your joints.

With joint pain/arthritis, inflammation stimulates the depletion of proteoglycans and damage to the collagen network and decreases the synthesis of cartilage matrix proteins - decreases cartilage.

Theorized that supplemental collagen may accumulate in cartilage and stimulate your tissues to make collagen.

Collagen hydrolysate ingestion stimulates a statistically significant increase in synthesis of extracellular matrix macromolecules by chondrocytes.

Suggests this may lead to lower inflammation, better support of your joints and reduced pain.

Do you need collagen in addition to the food protein that you eat?

I just tell people I’m 60, when I’m actually 40, works a treat 😁

[lukeroberts]

Ive been taken collagen and vitamin E for the past 4 months, and my skin has never look better. I mean its amazing how young i look.

[dee]

I’m 35 and physically fit, but for years I have aches and pains all over my body. Since I’ve been taking collagen the joint pain gone. I can’t believe something so simple actually works!

I started taking collagen lately and almost no one ever guesses that I’m 43.

Mainly because I’m 31, but still

[jontopham]

I took collagen and it helped lighten the skin around my eyes. It made a big difference

[cryptomon]

just started and this completely kicked my anxiety down about 10 levels. was really struggling with caffeine withdrawal but this stuff really helped push my health and mind into a new level.

[jmullens]

oh boy, some are gonna get triggered by saying we have gender individuality 🤣😂

Thomas Delauer is an absolute beast with knowledge. Addicted to his channel. I wish I could get a full body workout program from him before I get deployed again. Total monster of knowledge

[BaileyBaratheon]

I like how Thomas just says videos coming out all the time now because this channel is so consistent

[laurabeyer]

Thomas, I’m such a huge fan of yours. Your videos are so informative and helpful with my journey. Thank you for all you do.

Been using Collegen for the past week with my keto lifestyle and I've noticed instant results especially when consuming Caffiene which dried the heck out my skin causing them to have inch big cracks over! Now I can have my coffee in mod and not worry about this.

[ryanolmstead]

So informative im happy I found you brotha I started my journey three months ago thx for the help

[OswaldDigestiveClinic]

Thanks for the video! If you're wondering about forms of collagen, capsules are more convenient for traveling, but powder works too and you can't really taste it. There's not going to be a difference in absorption between the powder and the liquid. And finally, collagen does not get absorbed through the skin, so don't count on that when using a cream. On the other hand, you might experience benefits from collagen cream from the other ingredients that tend to be in those creams, like vitamin A!

When I reached 38 and my ex husband was 40 … I wanted out because he was abusive( long story )… he told me I was nothing like I was when he met me (at age 23)and I’d never find anyone else … I wasn’t even thinking of taking another man into my life in fact I use to think at night if I ever get rid of him I’m never taking anyone into my life again: it was only when he said this to me did I look at him and think actually how old he had got … the lack of hair and deep lines on his face: 2 weeks later he wanted to go out … he walked a street ahead of me ( usually behavior for him) until we got a taxi … got out he walk into the bar before I’d even walked around the taxi to the door. The bouncer stopped me asked for ID … I thought he was joking and the fact I may have been holding my head down but he said no I need to check your ID. As I was taking my drivers license out of my purse my ex came back out big angry head on him and said what’s up … the bouncer looked at him and turned to me and said it’s ok I see your with your father 😂😂😂…

Anyway where he had aged rapidly probably late 30’s I think now he is in his 50’s he hasn’t aged much since then and looks overall well for his age… it was just a funny moment I thought worth sharing. I would have loved to tell the bouncer that night how what he said put a smile back on my face. My ex said he was just trying to chat me up … but I guess that still meant I had it to attract someone … not that I was planning on that;).
Love your videos .. I’ve watched lots of them but only realized I wasn’t subscribed… I’ve corrected that now. As an ex nurse practitioner I think your advice is spot on .. and you explain it so well.

NEXT VIDEO! I have been following and loving all your videos for the past 2.5 years! I have been doing keto and have questions surrounding the effects of popular anabolic Steroids (DBOL/Anadrol/Testosterone) while on a ketogenic diet. Please do a full video on it on you tube! Liver effects, fat loss, muscle growth, hormone levels etc!

[lukeroberts]

Great video! I know you have touched on collagen a couple of times but i feel people underestimate the benefits of it 4 sum reason

[harrywolf]

Thank you so much Thomas you are amazing!!!!
Can you please do a video on teenager joint health and recovering from shoulder injuries.
I am in desperate need of your help!!
