Before I was diagnosed with NASH and fibrosis, I was tsking collagen supplements for my joints and skin. I know fibrosis is made of collagen and that the body produces it on its own. I can find NO information on whether collagen supplements contribute to fibrosis. I stopped taking vitamin C supplements due to vitamin c's part in the formation of fibrosis and have not resumed the collagen supplements but if anyone has information regsrding such supplementation in regard to fibrosis, I would appreciate it.
