Collagen supplements anyone?

[Ihopeyourcakeisshit]

Looking to buy some supplements but would appreciate feedback from anyone who takes them.

Nobody?

I'm actually just going to start taking collagen again. The ones I usually take are from H&B.

I wasn't sure if they were making any difference but now I've been off them for a while I think they were making a difference.

I noticed that my nails grew very quickly and were very strong. I also noticed that my hair was thicker. I wasn't sure if they made any difference to my skin but actually I think they did. So I am going to start taking them again.

I go for facial treatments from a Nurse and I've had Radio Therapy/HIFU and asked the Therapist. As well as a bit of online research.

They all say that the supplements won't reach your skin.

It's much better to use products and treatments that stimulate Collagen production.

That's really interesting Birdsgottafly. I definitely noticed that my hair and nails were much stronger and grew more. My nails usually break and peel very easily but after being on collagen supplements for a couple of weeks there was a huge difference. I didn't actually think the supplements had made much difference to my skin but since I have been off them my skin hasn't been so good.

Wouldn't just eating more protein have the same effect on your skin though?

Maybe you're younger thiscan't so you don't need to stimulate your skin much

I think I need more help than a bit more chicken and scrambled egg can offer

What's in them?

All research id read was debunked but it's possible to have flakey nails from a deficiency.

I'm not young, don't want to say my exact age but in my fifties.

The ones I use are the hydrolysed collagen, nothing else in the capsules.
