Ludwig tells us how and why he incorporated marine collagen into his wellness routine.

Why and since when do you consume collagen?

In June 2021, I partially ruptured my hamstring tendon during a jog where I was doing fast running / slow running. I've been feeling my body tired for a while, pulled the rope a little too much I guess.

The physio had told me 3 months of rest before starting rehabilitation for 1 additional month.

I told Romain from Humble+ about my injury, I was having smoothies at their corner after my workouts. He advised me to take collagen to help with my recovery, as this protein makes up 85% of tendon structure.

How often did you consume it? 

I consumed 10 grams a day for 8 weeks in the form of a powder that I mixed with water.

What were the effects on your body? 

The effects were real, I recovered from my injury in just 10 weeks combining leg rest and upper body muscle work.

I haven't felt any tenderness on my leg since.'

You tested Mímir Collagen Water, our collagen water, what did you think? 

I am a fan of Mimir for several reasons:

1) The taste is excellent.

As I forced myself to consume my collagen until now, it has become a real pleasure. I only received 3 cans so can't wait to receive the 3 recipes at the end of May!

2) The composition is perfect

There are only 4 ingredients, no additives, no sugar or sweeteners. 

3) It's very convenient

I'll take it with me to the gym or the office and with a big stock in my fridge!
