01
How Fast Tendons Turn Over and the Forms of Dietary Collagen

How quickly tendons, ligaments and cartilage turn over compared with muscle, how much the ACL can grow and shrink with training, and how native collagen, gelatin and hydrolyzed collagen differ.

02
Dietary Collagen, Vitamin C and Whey Protein for Tendon Adaptation

The studies behind dietary collagen for connective tissue, including gelatin before jump rope, recombinant collagen, patellar tendon growth with collagen and vitamin C, cartilage outcomes, and why a whey and collagen blend may work together.

03
Cocoa Epicatechin and Pairing Nutrition With Loading for Tendinopathy

How screening natural products identified cocoa epicatechin as a stimulus for collagen gene expression, what it did for rate of force development, and how to time collagen, whey, vitamin C and loading to treat tendinopathy.
