Doctor’s Best Pure Collagen Types 1 & 3, Promotes Healthy Skin Hair & Nails – Bone & Joint Support, 7.1 Ounce (Pack of 1)

Excellent quality and can not only see but FEEL a difference in my skin when I use this!
I have purchased this collagen on more than a few occasions and feel that the Doctor’s Best brand is excellent quality as well as the best value. My skin is extremely sensitive and dries out very easily, particularly in the winter. I have noticed that since I’ve started taking this (in conjunction with the other supplements I’ll list below), my skin feels much better and definitely retains more moisture. If I forget to take this regimen for a few days (though truthfully, it’s just out of sheer laziness versus actual forgetfulness!), I can definitely FEEL a change. When taking it, the skin on body feel much more supple, and definitely smoother. While I do not have deep wrinkles on my face as of yet to say if it would effect those, feel that I have a “softer” appearance overall regarding fine lines.I take this first thing in the morning on an empty stomach, in conjunction with Liquid Hyaluronic Acid Joint Support Now Foods 16 Oz Liquid, Ester-C 1000 mg with Citrus Bioflavonoids American Health Products 180 VegTab and Good State Liquid Ionic Silica Supplement, (48 servings at 125mg each plus 2 mg fulvic acid). I blend this powdered collagen into flavored water, mixing with a fork. There are a few small clumps doing this, I personally am not bothered by this but perhaps others would be. I believe you have to take this, at minimum, 45 minutes before eating anything to allow it to absorb properly. I’m not a breakfast person so this is no issue. Overall, I would wholeheartedly recommend this collagen, ideally with the other supplements I have listed because I believe they work in conjunction with one another.

Supports healthy skin and connective tissue
[+] NUTRITIONAL CAFÉ REVIEW w/ videoI use this product to build collagen in my body. Collagen is a protein found in the skin and other connective tissue throughout the body. When collagen is digested, it is broken down into its amino acids just like any other protein. Then, those amino acids are used by the body to build the collagen it needs. Different types of proteins contain amounts of amino acids. Collagen is heavy in certain amino acids needed by the body to build collagen within the body.One question someone might ask is: If collagen is protein, then why can’t my body just make collagen from other sources of protein like chicken or meat? That’s a good question. Collagen contains a broad spectrum of amino acids; however, it contains heavy amounts of only certain amino acids. This composition of amino acids is much different than the composition of amino acids from the protein in chicken or meat. These heavier amounts of amino acids are then needed by the body to make its own collagen. Chicken or meat simply don’t have enough of these needed specific amino acids.I take this in the morning when I wake up. I put one scoop in a glass bottle filled with distilled water, cap it, and then shake it until it completely dissolves, which usually happens fairly quickly. After I drink the water, I wait 20-30 minutes before I eat any protein. I believe it would be okay to eat any food that does not contain protein (or little protein) like an apple, and it would also be okay to, for example, drink juice since that contains little protein.I have purchased this many times, and I have had no issues using this product. I would recommend this product to anyone seeking to supplement their diet with collagen.DISCLAIMER: I am not a physician nor am I dispensing medical advice.

Excellent product with cheap price noticeable result in a short period in less than one week. I am drinking it before bedtime on an empty stomach highly recommend it.

Very effective on my falling hair but local price is too high compare to where i am getting from. This product is highly recommended.
