The present invention is directed to a method of replacing collagen broken down during physical activity using a novel dietary supplement. The supplement composition of the present invention comprises collagen, glutamine, taurine, and, optionally, the nine essential amino acids. The uptake of collagen is enhanced using this combination of components to levels substantially near the pre-workout levels.
