I often wonder what app can be designed to tell me the nutritional profile of stuff like my homemade meat stocks. After cooking meat stocks, I blend up all of the skin, cartledge, bone marrow, and other soft tissues, then stir that into the meat stock. Sometimes I include cooked vegetables I blend up if I want a thicker soup. Or Raw egg yolk stired into my vanilla whey protien, 1/2 tsp vanilla, pinch salt, shake of nutmeg, the egg white foamed up sweetened with stevia for the top and sprinkle with nutmeg. Or wild sockeye salmon I like to ferment and have with sliced steamed carrots and beets, with homemade kefir cheese. Where do I find the nutrient profile for that kind of snack?
I wouldn't know if I require supplements.

Another great podcast, Jason. I've been waiting to hear Keith Baar on there, so how fortuitous was that?!Must admit I did have a quiet chuckle to myself when he started talking about Camille Herron, though. 😃

Whatever future research in this topic will find out, the abundance of collagen supplements in the market clearly tells us, that it is more beneficial to the industry to put animal skin in these than in landfills or fertilizers. As often research has to tail the economy and clear up the fog it is producing.

I know this is an anecdote and totally unscientific, when I take collagen peptides regularly for a long enough time, like a month or two, I start to notice that my hair and nails are growing much faster than usual. It suggests to me that something is going on there. You didn't bring up any distinction between collagen and collagen peptides. And I thought could have asked more questions around duration of supplementation. We know already that tendons and ligaments adapt and heal very slowly compared to muscles.
