Yes, for me that's an unfortunate side effect. Maybe okay for other people but for me it's not been a pleasant experience.

I thought the presentation last night lacked a lot of good information, and it was ridicuously expensive, only a months supply and a glass bottle for $75, yikes!! Does the Q sell the refills?

You might need more fiber for that.

Oh no, clogging up the system is not good either, balance is key, thanks for your input @SilleeMee

@SilleeMee You may want to hang in there a bit longer to see results. It took 6 months for me and that was 2 years ago. Wouldn't go a day without the powder in my coffee in the morning. My 61 y/o skin has no wrinkles! Best of luck!

I have noticed a correlation (meaning both happening at the same time) between when I started taking collagen peptides (not just plain collagen powder), and my acid reflux going away. I can't prove a causation (meaning definite cause and effect). But it's a great and unexpected possible side effect. My skin is firmer for sure, especially around my eyes and on my arms.

Totally agree!
And boy....ever since Kourtney Kardashian started promoting it,
it’s everywhere on social media!
People who believe it works doesn’t know how the Human Body works.
Also...being an animal product, it will cause inflammation & restrict
the cardiovascular system...which will decrease blood flow, which will
negate any ‘benefit’ if there were any. It just doesn’t even make sense.
Its disheartening to see people really wanting to make change
and be sold a product or dietary idea which doesn’t serve
them in the long run. It breaks the spirit when things don’t work.

It is amazing at the half baked and pur misinformation spouted here every time nutrition, supplements or diet is mentioned.
It is the same old same old, and through the years most supplements and odd diets have been proven to be at the least not helpful and the most harmful.
So it always comes back to moderation, a variety in your diet, not too much fat, enough fiber, foods of different colors and a good variety that satisfies and sustains the omnivores humans are.
Anyone for eggs and grapefruit for the next month? LOL!!!

It's a forum with lots of different people gathered here. We've got experimenters, back to basics folks, people who are open to most new ideas, skeptics, people who try to be fair, people who don't feel obliged to be fair, people who want to be guided in what to do, people who want to tell others what to do, people who don't care what anyone does...
And one thing is for sure, everyone thinks they are right.
