Hi, has anyone any experience with taking a collagen supplement? I suffer from IBS C and would like to try collagen for joint pain etc, but am nervous of it making my IBS worse. Any advice gratefully received.

Hi Gardener#, I have been taking a collagen supplement from My Protein for a few months. I have IBS and oesteoarthritus. It has not upset me thank goodness and believe my pain would be worse without. We are all unique so only way is to give it a try.

Hi, I took Vital proteins collagen peptides for at least a year to help stop hair loss. I have slow transit and it did not affect me adversely at all. In fact it was very good, but costly, considering I already pay out for Symprove long term.

Peptide collagen (hydrolysed collagen) and marine collagen are good gut healers and anti-inflammatorys, so you may find them helpful.
