I have never heard of any contraindications for collagen with PV. I have tried it but it did not help. It would be important to check for any drug interaction with whatever medication that you are taking. I consult with an Integrative Medicine doctor for this reason as many doctors are not as familiar with the use of complementary health interventions.

I take the powdered Collagen Peptides in my morning tea or coffee. It has 20 mg of protein which I like.

I take the powdered form in coffee or smoothie and finding my skin isn't as dry and itchy and had no interactions with my treatment 😊

There was a "Sliced Bread" episode about collagen supplements in 2022. You can find it on BBC Sounds (BBC.com outside UK). bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001fcy4

I took collagen at the recommended dose for a while, then stopped when I got gout in my toe, don’t know whether there was a connection but gout is to do with purines, so maybe just take half the dose measure. My face definitely improved whilst taking it 🙂

Hi,

I have taken collagen without issues. However, I haven’t noticed any difference. For my nails biotin has been giving better results, hair thinning nothing has helped. I hope you get better results than I did, good luck with that. If you are on medication may be good to check with a professional when starting supplements.
