Study on Collagen Hydrolysate vs. Dairy Protein for Muscle Recovery
Background
This study looks at whether collagen hydrolysate (CH) can help with muscle recovery after exercise better than dairy protein (DP), which is a common protein supplement.
Methods
A total of 33 males participated in the study. They were divided into three groups:
- Group 1: Consumed 25 g of collagen hydrolysate (n = 11)
- Group 2: Consumed 25 g of dairy protein (n = 11)
- Group 3: Consumed a placebo (n = 11)
Participants took their assigned supplement right after exercise and once daily for three days. Muscle damage was assessed before and after a 30-minute downhill run.
Results
The downhill running caused noticeable muscle damage, but there were no significant differences in recovery between the CH and DP groups. All measured outcomes were similar across groups.
Conclusions
Taking CH or DP right after exercise does not appear to help with muscle recovery in recreationally active males.
