The documented benefits of collagen in your diet are many and varied, so when Revive Collagen recently got in touch with a chance to review their Menopause Max collagen drink, I was interested.
The Benefits Of Collagen
One of the main benefits is improved skin health and elasticity. Research published in the National Library of Medicine has shown that collagen supplements can reduce or delay skin ageing.
Another benefit is the ability to reduce joint pain and stiffness by promoting cartilage regeneration. This is of benefit to everyone, but particularly the elderly and athletes. It could also help with osteoarthritis and osteoporosis, especially the menopause, by increasing bone mineral density.
Collagen may also support gut lining, and there is evidence that it could help leaky gut syndrome by fortifying the gut, although more research is needed.
If you have brittle nails or hair that is prone to splitting, taking collagen may help promote faster hair growth, stronger nails, with anecdotal evidence of shinier and healthier hair.
Finally, collagen is thought to help heart health by improving the structure of heart muscles, making them more resilient to stress.
Revive Collagen
Revive Collagen is a market leader in providing easy-to-use liquid collagen supplements worldwide.
Instead of using creams or serums that work on top of your skin, they believe in nourishing your skin from the inside out is the way to go. The sachets that they make contain hydrolysed marine collagen (which just means it’s broken down into smaller, more absorbable parts), along with other skin-loving ingredients like hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, and vitamins like B6 and C.
What makes them stand out is that their supplements are ready-to-drink—no mixing powders or blending anything. Just tear open a sachet and go. It’s very much tailored to people who want convenience but still care a lot about their skin health, hair, nails, joints—all that good stuff.
They’ve also got some celeb backing—Amanda Holden, a well-known UK TV personality, is a co-founder, so the brand definitely leans into that glam, confident-woman vibe. You’ll often see people using it as part of their daily "glow-up" routine.
Oh, and if you’re wondering if it works, like with all supplements, results can vary. Some people swear their skin feels plumper and looks more radiant after a few weeks, while others might not notice much. But the reviews are generally positive, especially from those consistent with it.
What Did I Think?
It is in a sachet and is a liquid that you take once a day and, in my opinion, has a light citrus flavour. I liked that the drink is small and easily portable, so easy to take to work or on holiday with you, so you don't forget to take it every day.
