When you think of what it takes to play good golf - powerful swings, strong joints, steady balance, sharp focus - it’s not just technique, clubs or hours on the green. It’s about having a body that supports you: resilient joints, quick recovery, energy, and yes, even skin, hair and nails that hold up when you’re out in the sun. That’s where our Kollo Premium Marine Collagen and Meno Support come in.
As our co-founder Jenni Falconer knows well (she’s out there on the fairways herself), the benefits go far beyond beauty.
What’s the Deal with Collagen and Golf?
Here are some of the key ways collagen supports golfers, and sporty people in general:
1. Joint Health, Pain Reduction and Recovery
- Every swing puts stress on shoulders, elbows, wrists, knees and spine. Collagen is a major component of cartilage, tendons and ligaments, helping cushion and repair connective tissue (Cleveland Clinic).
- As natural collagen production declines with age and wear, stiffness and soreness can increase. Supplementing collagen helps replenish these critical proteins. A 2019 review found collagen supplementation reduced joint pain and improved joint function in active and ageing populations (British Journal of Sports Medicine).
2. Energy and Recovery
- After a round or a tough day of practice, muscles and joints need repair. Our collagen sachet provides 9.5 g of protein, supporting muscle repair, connective tissue strength and reduced recovery time.
- Protein intake has been shown to aid muscle recovery and reduce exercise-induced damage (Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition).
3. Immune System and Overall Resilience
- Being outdoors, exposed to sun, wind and sometimes travel stress, your body needs robust defences. Collagen peptides can help maintain gut barrier function, which is closely tied to immune health (Nutrients).
- Less inflammation and more efficient recovery mean fewer missed rounds due to aches or feeling run-down.
4. Skin, Hair and Nails: The Added Benefits
- Golfers spend hours in the sun, where UV exposure accelerates skin ageing. Collagen helps maintain elasticity, hydration and firmness. Clinical trials show collagen supplements improve skin hydration and elasticity (Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology).
- Healthier hair and nails are part of feeling sharp on and off the course. Jenni experiences these benefits too, with stronger nails and improved skin tone.
Introducing Meno Support: More Than Just for Menopause
You might think “Meno Support” is only for those going through menopause. In fact, it’s a great all-rounder, especially for active people:
- Balance and Calm: Ingredients such as vitamins B6 and magnesium support mood balance and energy metabolism.
- Hyaluronic Acid: Helps with skin hydration, joint lubrication and tissue resilience.
- Synergy: When taken together with Kollo collagen, you get a complementary effect: collagen provides structural protein for repair, while Meno Support adds hydration, balance and joint comfort.
Practical Tips for Golfers
| When / How | What to Do |
|---|---|
| Morning routine | - Take a sachet of Kollo collagen with a glass of water or breakfast. |
| On long practice or tournament days | - Stay hydrated, wear sun protection, and take Meno Support in the evening to stay balanced. |
| After play | - Stretch, keep moving, and let the collagen protein aid repair. |
| Consistency | - Benefits accumulate over weeks. Most people notice results in 2–4 weeks, with stronger effects after a couple of months. |
Jenni’s Personal Take
Jenni plays regularly and has made Kollo collagen and Meno Support part of her golf routine. She reports less stiffness after long days, healthier skin even with sun exposure, stronger nails and faster recovery between rounds. For her, it’s about staying comfortable and confident both on and off the course.

Kollo’s Marine Collagen provides protein and the raw material for repair, while Meno Support adds hydration, calm and balance. Together, they form a powerful duo for any active person who wants to perform well and feel great.
