Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

37yr old athlete who wanted to turn back the clock a little bit, and raise my performance a little more. Pretty good multicollagen if you dont know which one you need, which I didn't when I started. Great starting point. Heres some of the ailments it helped me with: Significant improvements to a receding gum line problem that was causing insane sensitivity and frustration. Barely any issues now. By the end of the next container, it seems that problem will be just a memory. Substantial improvements to my shoulder and knees. Much less pain. Allows me to totally change my training since it significantly improves my recovery time, which is golden for an old race horse like me. Healed one of my new scars *really* well. Im a little bit of a nut to some people because I understand how the body works and they generally dont, so some of my methods seem strange. But I poured some of the powder onto a cleaned wound and wrapped with a bandage. Tingled *a lot* which was a very good sign as I was absorbing and applying the nutrients to repair the skin naturally. This is extremely similar to what they do to younwhen you get a skin graft. When the scab appeared, I kept the scab moist and disinfected using tea tree oil to keep the scab on as long as possible, which heals wounds faster. Final result is wound healed *much* more completely than without these steps, and the remaining scar is very tiny and barely visible. Maybe, 1/8th the size of the original wound, which sounds like a fantasy, but it isn't. A much smaller wound I got months earlier is much more visible. Helped fade a prior wound, surprisingly. Helped reduce the "floaters" in my eye, which are broken collagen strands. Didn't 'cure' that problem, but it helped, much to my surprise. I had much fewer "bad days" with my eyes. If originally I was at 1 out of 3 days were bad, now its maybe 1 out of 7 or 1 out of 12 on a good run. Very thankful for this. Im already pretty youthful looking for being 37. Most people guess im in my mid 20s. So I cant say whether it helped with hair and nails objectively. Also cant say for the immune system as I rarely got sick, so, hard to see if there was an improvement so I wont comment there. My appetite did reduce (which is a sign that you absorb more nutrients). I had less savage cravings. I still got them but not as intensely, and way less frequently. How I Take it: An athletes perspective. I eventually got in the habit of mixing 2 scoops into a bottle of red or yellow gatorade. This hides the fishy smell (there is very little fishy *taste*, but yes, a smell), which honestly, isn't bad truthfully. But mixing it with gatorade definitely supercharges my sports drinks. I also mix it into my protein shakes. Barely notice any flavor difference, just makes it creamier. But when I mix this, protein powder, and unflavored creatine powder all in one shake, holy crap. The recovery is unreal. I feel like I could get hit by a bus and recover from it in a few days. RAPID healing. Much less time on the sidelines. Transforms your recovery, which means it elevates you as an athlete. The only thing I would change, is having the manufacturer indicate what percentage of each come in the container, like is it 20% of each type? Or 60% of Type 1, and 10% of each other types? Maybe its fairly random from batch to batch. I would love to know. For this reason Im going to buy some Type 2 and mix it with this to get the dosages for my joints that I need, but I will never train without collagen again thanks to this.
