From what I learned in the past, collagen or protein gelatin do not need to be counted in the daily protein requirement. The collagen protein mostly will be used for different reason from the deriving protein found in milk eggs meat etc... as the latter have all complete amino acid profile and serve mostly for different reasons from collagen, even though some can be use for collagen formation as well.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I see in the Peat community, advocating to replace the complete protein with up to 50% of collagen. To me, it would make more sense to add x amount of collagen on top of the full spectrum amino acid protein such as meat, eggs dairy.
