People often add collagen to their coffee, but worry about heat’s impact on collagen peptides. Research, however, indicates that collagen peptides can endure temperatures far exceeding those of typical coffee. Thus, it’s safe to mix collagen into coffee. More innovative methods to consume collagen powder are detailed in the description.

A lot of people like to add collagen to their morning coffee, but some are concerned that the hot coffee will destroy the collagen peptides or cause its molecular structure to melt because of the high heat. Is that true? Should you add collagen to your coffee? The short answer is yes. You can definitely add collagen powder to your coffee. The heat of the coffee is not something that you should be concerned about. So why do I say that? Well, collagen peptides aren’t affected by heat unless they get really, really hot. And the temperature of coffee is usually hovering between 70 to 85 degrees Celsius, give or take. But studies show that collagen peptides can actually withstand much higher temperatures up to 300 Celsius. Since your coffee is nowhere near that hot, there’s no need to worry about your coffee breaking down your collagen peptides. So if you love adding collagen to your coffee, no problem, go for it. But if maybe you’re looking for other creative ways to take your collagen powder, check out the links in the description down below.
