According to scientific studies, the collagen protein is surprisingly heat-stable and can withstand temperatures much higher than a standard hot shower or coffee. This debunks the common myth and reassures those who worry that routine exposure to hot water might break down collagen in their supplements or skin.

This raises a critical question: is collagen damaged by hot water, whether in your supplements or in your shower? The answer depends entirely on the context and temperature.
