Collagen myth

I read recently that collagen is just an expensive protein powder and it doesnt have the effects it claims to really have, what do ladies think about that?

That you might wanna read some more. Let's start (copy and paste of need be) with 'what effects it claims to have'. What claims?

supplement companies will sell anything to make a buck. these collagen supplements are a joke, just look at the ingredients that are in them.

There are, cos I looked, collagen protein powders (as high as 90% protein).

Collagen is an incomplete protein source for the goals of muscle building - it's a pure supplement

However, collagen supplements are great for joint and skin health.

It also depends on your goals. What are you looking to accomplish by taking it?
