I have been taking collagen powder in my breakfast for almost a year to help with my foot and boost my bone density. I can’t tell yet about the bone density but it seems to help the joint pain in my ankle and foot. It also unexpectedly helps with acid reflux and digestion when my allergies are bad.
I have the wife on collagen powder and I started taking hyaluronic acid internally. I noticed almost immediately a change in my joint health. This relief was similar in speed as when I cut off white sugar (yes white sugar causes inflammation). The wife is on collagen for cosmetic reasons and I think that times some time to observe.
Normally I make a hyaluronic serum for topical use. I just learned it could be used internally. I'm taking 240mg daily which just happens to be the amount to fill a 00 capsule.
