I have got a hectic schedule with work and workouts, so recovery is not always great. Since taking this the bounce back is quicker, especially after long days. Also noticed my hair feels a bit thicker. Easy to take, does not taste like anything.

Is Core for you?
For you if
- You train, play or work hard and want 8.5g of collagen and 5g of creatine in the same pouch
- You are over 18 and want one daily habit, not a shelf full of supplements
- You are an active individual and want something that goes in your drink or snack with minimal effort
- You want unflavoured, so it disappears into whatever drink or food you are consuming
Not for you if
- You are under 18, pregnant or breastfeeding
- You are vegetarian or vegan (it is bovine collagen)
- You want a flavoured shake
- You expect to feel a change in one week. Collagen and creatine take at least a month to start to feel the benefits.
What it is and what it does
Collagen and creatine in one scoop. Formulated for men who are active and want to feel energised and recover quicker.
Core for Men replaces separate tubs of collagen, creatine and a men's multivitamin with one pouch using one unflavoured 15g scoop a day. Stir it into your morning coffee and you will not taste it.
What it does
- Performance. Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise. Each scoop contains 5g of creatine; the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3g.
- Muscle. Collagen is protein, and protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function.
- Less tiredness and fatigue. Magnesium, vitamin B6 and vitamin C each contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. No caffeine.
- Collagen formation. Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin, cartilage and bones.
- Healthy testosterone. Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood.

Reviews from men who bought it
Do not expect a miracle in week one. Give it a full pouch and judge it against your own sessions.
I was not convinced collagen was something guys really needed. My wife actually suggested I try it. A couple of months in, I have changed my mind. Recovery feels smoother, hair seems thicker.
I am 28 and did not think I needed something like this yet. After a couple of months, it is actually worth it. My joints do not feel as stiff after sitting all day, and my skin looks a bit healthier.
Used Core for a couple of weeks now. Easy to take, super clean with no rubbish in it. Also had my dad taking it (he is 54) and he is sticking with it.
Great product that does what it says on the packet. I add it to my coffee and you cannot taste it at all. Definitely feel as if I have more energy and recovery after training seems easier.
Been using Core for Men for 3 months now and the results are clear. Improved skin and hair from the collagen, better strength and performance from the creatine, overall feeling great.
Individual experiences vary. Reviews are from customers who bought Core for Men and were invited to review after purchase.
Give it a try. Here is how the first months usually go.
No miracles, no overnight changes. Just a daily scoop that quietly does its job.
-
Week 1
Build the routine
Find the moment it fits, and for most men that is the morning coffee. It is unflavoured and mixes clean in hot or cold drinks, so the only thing to get used to is remembering the scoop.
-
Weeks 2 to 3
Creatine saturation
With 5g a day your muscles' creatine stores are filling up. Nothing dramatic yet, and that is completely normal. Keep taking it every day.
-
Week 4 onwards
The point most men notice
This is where most of the men who write to us say training starts to feel that bit easier. Creatine's effect on performance in short, high intensity bursts is now working for you.
-
Month 3
Consistency is the whole point
Collagen and the essentials work over months, not days. By now the daily scoop is simply part of how you look after yourself. Subscribe and you never run out.
Individual experiences vary. Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise; the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3g of creatine.
Built for men who want to stay fit and active for the future
Six ingredients at optimum dosages, chosen for the things men actually notice: strength, energy, skin and hair, and how you feel after a hard day, whether that was the gym, the course or the job.

Recover faster
Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Monday's session should not ruin Wednesday's.*

Perform better
5g of creatine monohydrate a day increases physical performance in short bursts of high intensity exercise. It works on the pitch, the court or wherever you exercise.*

Look after your joints
8.5g of collagen protein in every scoop combined with vitamin C, which contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage and bones.*

Skin, hair and nails
Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, hair and nails, and vitamin C supports normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin.*

Steadier energy
Vitamin B6 and magnesium contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. No caffeine, no crash.*

Support healthy testosterone
12mg of zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood, and to normal protein synthesis.*
* Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise (the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3g of creatine). Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin, cartilage and bones. Magnesium and vitamin B6 contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function. Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood and of normal skin, hair and nails.
Science-backed formulation in every scoop
Most collagen products for men are under-dosed, over-flavoured or padded out with filler. Core is formulated around what the studies proved to be beneficial then manufactured and tested in the UK.
8.5g of collagen protein.1
Core delivers 8.5g of collagen protein per scoop, from hydrolysed bovine peptides, paired with vitamin C which contributes to normal collagen formation for skin, cartilage and bones.

5g of creatine monohydrate, every day.2
Creatine is the most studied performance supplement in sport. Core gives you 5g every day, so you can stop buying it separately. Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise.

The four micronutrients men quietly run short on.3
Magnesium for normal muscle function and less fatigue. Zinc for the maintenance of normal testosterone levels and normal skin, hair and nails. Vitamin C for normal collagen formation. Vitamin B6 for normal energy-yielding metabolism.

Straight answers
Everything men ask us before their first pouch. If your question is not here, message us and a real person will reply.
Why would a man take collagen?
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body. It is found in skin, tendons, ligaments, cartilage and bone, and from our thirties the body makes less of it. Core for Men gives you 8.5g of hydrolysed collagen protein a day, paired with vitamin C, which contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin, cartilage and bones. Protein also contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass, which is why it sits alongside the creatine rather than instead of it.
What does it taste like?
Nothing. Core is unflavoured and unsweetened, with no artificial flavours, colours or sweeteners. It dissolves in hot or cold drinks. Most men stir it into their morning coffee and cannot tell it is there. It also works in tea, a protein shake, porridge or yoghurt or however you prefer.
When should I take it and how?
One 15g scoop a day, whenever it is convenient for you. For most men that is the morning coffee. Stir it into a hot drink for the best mix. Consistency matters far more than timing, so pick a moment and stick to it.
Do I need to load creatine?
No. Loading phases are optional. Core gives you 5g in every scoop. Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise (the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3g of creatine), and that effect builds with daily use. Take your scoop each day and keep going.
How long until I notice anything?
Do not expect anything dramatic in week one. Creatine takes a few weeks of daily use to reach its full effect, and collagen and the essentials work over months rather than days. Many of the men who write to us say training starts to feel a little easier from around week four. Give it a full pouch. Individual experiences vary.
Is the subscription locked in?
No. No minimum term. Reminder email before every order. Skip, pause or cancel in your account. Deliveries arrive every 4 weeks and you save on every pouch for as long as you stay subscribed. You are in control from your account, in two clicks.
What if it is not for me?
Every pouch comes with our 14-day returns policy. Changed your mind? Unopened pouches can be returned within 14 days of delivery. Faulty or damaged pouches are always replaced or refunded.
Who should not take it?
Core is a food supplement for adults. It is not suitable for anyone under 18, or for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. If you have a medical condition or take medication, consult your doctor before use. It contains bovine collagen, so it is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans. Food supplements are not a substitute for a balanced and varied diet and a healthy lifestyle. Do not exceed the stated daily dose.
