Hubby has recently started taking a couple of advocare products-joint promotion one of them. He is kind if person who does not take pills or any med for that matter, much at all. However, because he can tell such a difference in how he feels (less joint pain, etc). He takes them daily. It got me interrested- I see that the protein shots are a mixture of whey protein and collagen protein.  I sm wondering how collagen protein is beneficial- i dont think it promotes muscle mass. I will research more....  in addition  it does seem like their products are geared to being physically active and the carbs are a little high.  Thoughts?

You should do a search here on collagen protein. LOTS of discussions have been had on it. General consensus is it's no good, but others will have the science of why.

Good job looking out for hubby.

I had the collagen protein shots and based on the info I got from the vets gave them to DH for his joints.  One knee has been replaced.

I take the carb ease. I don't know if it helps but I'm losing wt. I still watch my carbs but I sometimes have something that is a little high in carbs such as the protein smoothies at my gym. If anyone wants any I just signed up as a distributor. Just let me know.
