Both are popular — but if you're focused on strength, recovery, and skin health, one stands above the rest. Here’s how bovine and marine collagen compare.
Bovine Collagen: Strength & Structure
Bovine collagen is derived from grass-fed cows and contains primarily Type I and Type III collagen — the most abundant types in the human body. These support skin elasticity, joint integrity, and muscle recovery. It’s ideal for men looking to enhance physical performance, resilience, and daily recovery.
At Revayo, we use hydrolysed bovine collagen in Revayo Prime and Revayo Boost for optimal absorption and bioavailability — meaning your body actually uses what you take.
Marine Collagen: Lighter, But Not Always Better
Marine collagen is sourced from fish and is often marketed for beauty and skin health. It contains primarily Type I collagen and is considered slightly more bioavailable — but the difference is often marginal and doesn’t outweigh cost and efficacy for most men.
It’s also significantly more expensive and may not deliver added benefits for strength, joints, or recovery — making it less ideal for Revayo’s performance-focused mission.
Which One Should You Choose?
Unless you have a specific dietary restriction, bovine collagen offers the most complete support for active men. It’s more affordable, effective, and aligned with performance, recovery, and resilience goals. That’s why our Prime + Boost Stack has become a go-to for men serious about results.
