Study Summary

The BECOME Study (Bovine and Marine Collagen Efficacy for Skin, Hair, Nails and Whole Body Health Markers Evaluation) is a randomized controlled trial designed to compare the effects of bovine and marine collagen supplements versus a placebo on skin, hair, nails and whole body health markers. The trial aims to determine the most efficacious collagen source for improving health outcomes and to establish if both types of collagen are equally effective.
