    I did, but mine said, "yeah, go ahead" until I told him what I was taking it for. Then he said it won't help. Me being dumb, took it the next day, and my constipation continues. I assume this stuff is the cause of my constipation. As I been constipated basically since I started taking it. Another possible cause of my constipation is a week ago, for a few days I held my poop in cuz skin thinning made me feel uncomfortable to do ANYTHING. Don't take steroid creams folks.

    I’m taking marine collagen for approximately 4 months and OMG the results are fantastic. Original took it for skin elasticity as I’m in my 40s and starting noticing a few wrinkles appearing. My skin now is much plumper and I have a definite glow. Don’t wear makeup most days and am asked have I started Botox 🤣 Also my hair has absolutely strengthened and a lot less frizzy and minimal hair loss(unlike before) Never had an issue with my nails but they are definitely stronger. An added bonus off no more achey bones and muscles after workout. Highly recommend taking collagen, it has certainly worked for me 😊

    I have been taking it for about 6 weeks now because I had used rogaine for like 10 years and it basically slows your body's production of collagen. I got dark bags under my eyes and a puffy face. I looked almost 40 but I'm only 29. I'm not a scientist but I assume it basially sped up my skins aging process and gave me a slight collagen deficiency. I started taking this the day I quit using that. And in the time I have been taking this, my skin has gotten that tight elastic feel back. I also use retinol cream and aloe barbadensis daily, so I can't say how much of skin's recovery so far has been attributed to the collagen peptides I take every day. But my joints and body feel amazing. I am starting to see the brow arch I used to have on my forehead, and my eyes are slowly starting to return to their normal skin color. It's actually pretty crazy. I had initially thought it was just the area under my eyes that had gotten thin and weak, but my skin quality overall has drastically improved. I am planning to do this everyday for a year. I would leave a link to what I use but it'll make it seem spammy. haha Moral of the story: Don't ever take roagine. It's better to be a bald man with no hair that have hair and look like the Emperor with your bags.

    I think the importance of collagen goes beyond just supple skin (and obviously joints, etc). Most cultures that eat meat or fish eat the whole animal (thus consuming more collagen rich sources of protein in the process). We tend to focus more on Muscle meats in Western culture and with it we miss a lot of the balance of amino acids you get when you consume everything (which is also less wasteful). I've read and listened to nutritionists who say it is important to get a good balance of Glycine in Relation to Methionine. So adding in collagen to the diet (or eating more sources of it) is probably a good idea.

    Would you be able to talk about makeup removers?

Also double cleansing? I didn't think I needed to double cleanse because I don't wear makeup on a daily basis, but now I've read that you should still do it to help break up oil and sebum and SPF. Thanks! Your videos have been really helpful and informative.

    I am Asian, a singaporean Chinese. The reason why we have better skin is due to humidity and our genetics. Asians skin naturally produce more oil which acts as a “moisture lock” if it’s adequately. Caucasians naturally will have aged skin no matter the procedure due to environmental effects of Low humidity which cause premature aging and also the western lifestyle. Asians especially Chinese, Korean and Japanese are very knowledgeable with herbs, traditional Chinese medication and what to eat. It’s basically our diet. There’s a reason why USA population loves Chinese takeouts due to its “fancy” flavours but in essence its nutritious. The Koreans and Japanese happens to lead similar lifestyle to us as historically the sphere of influence is there for thousands of years and even longer. There’s a reason why other Asians such as Indians, malays do not age as well too. It largely is due to the fairer skin and of Chinese, Korean or Japanese origin. Sadly that is genetics. But what you can do is to moisturise religiously and put sunblock. I am 25 recently started collagen and got my parents to start collagen. My parents are both 55+ surprisingly they do not have wrinkles and or white hair. Just occasional complains about the diminishing energy and flexibility which is why I signed them up to gym and various exercise and also hired dieticians to map Out and convince them to indulge less in “sauce” it could be laden with unnecessary sugar. I think especially Chinese, Japanese and Koreans always look younger due to our not mature look. We just look like babies I guess and our dress sense. Lifestyle plays a huge role ABC, and American Koreans in USA likewise don’t fare well due to the adaptation of western food, lifestyle. In all lifestyle, genetics, environment dictates how you look. Sadly you can augment lifestyle and environment to a certain extent like ensuring adequate humidity(60-70%)

    I tried Probase Sports Nutrition Collagen Peptides (six months on it) and it has changed my nails, hair, and skin like no other collagen supplement I have tried before. My hair is much fuller, my nails don't break anymore as they used to and my skin is literally glowing. One side effect I used to get from many other brands was bloating, heartburn, and sometimes headaches but not with this product. Absolutely love this product and highly recommend it.

I found you on KZread and a quick glance at the website and ingredient list on the products - I knew I needed to try Altilis! The cleanser shows sold out though... when will it be back in stock? Thanks so much and very much looking forward to trying all 3 products soon!

I’ve had these forehead bumps for about a YEAR now and nothing I do gets rid of them! I’ve used Nizoral as apparently it’s anti fungal but my skin eventually gets dry and breaks out! though it improves a bit, not much happens! :/ thank you!!!

    Great info. I'll check out your other videos, and I recommend you include information about the body's natural ability to produce collagen. I'm new to this subject, but am seeing really good results with major health issues like pain, inflammation, and stiffness. Apparently we lose 1% collagen production every year beginning around age 25. So it's logical that increasing supplementation, either dietary or supplemental, would help balance that loss and prevent a lot of disease caused by waning collagen. It's looking like we should start increasing collagen intake between ages 25-30 and then gradually increase it throughout our lifetime. And of course a variety of collagens in important as Types 1 and 3 are more for skin and hair, etc., and Type 2 is more for joints, bone, and connective tissue.

    Thank you. There is no point of taking collagen unless one starts to have age-related skin issues. I think for most women it would be at least after 35 or 40. It is best to build a habit of eating variety of vegetables and fruits and avoid alcohol and nicotine, as no amount of supplements would erase the damage of poor diet and alcohol/nicotine abuse. Also it is important to pay attention to the hormonal changes. I found it hard-way that when hormones start to change for whatever reason, but premenopausal women especially, skin, hair, mood drastically change in a very short period of time. In my experience hydrolyzed collagen works, but it's not a miracle-cure for wrinkles. There must be hormonal balance in the body, good nutrition, hydration, physical activity and then collagen will show noticeable positive results. If one simply adds supplements but they don't absorb well because of other issues in the body it's a waste of money.

My nails don't break anymore as they used to and my skin is close to perfect. This brand is less expensive than 99% of other products I have tried and the quality is superior. Dissolves into pretty much everything and it doesn't leave any nasty aftertaste or residue. I am honestly blown away with this collagen supplement.

    I am 68 and a cople of years ago I broke my shoulder in 4 places. I decided to allow the shoulder to heal on its own and was advised to try collagen and Curcumin as a way to help the bone healing. My shoulder healed very well but also my hair ( which is seriously thinning) started to grow more and stand up on the top of my head and my nails grew faster. I don't really have wrinkles but my skin is showing signs of lowering collagen , so I am going to use the collagen supplement again. I really think it works for me and the Curcumin helps my knees a lot.

    nxvxr I know opinions differ on this, but here is mine. I think because most people with EDS have a mutation in one type of collagen (not all 28 types), taking a collagen supplement could also increase the amount of the non mutated collagen types. Pretty much everywhere in our body has a combination of multiple types of collagen, so it might still strengthen things as a whole. Also, especially given the positive results many people with EDS have had with prolotherapy, I think it is likely that even producing more of a mutated form of collagen could increase overall structural integrity. I think of it like a bunch of wimpy threads combining together to make a stronger rope. Or like how a bundle of flimsy twigs can become quite strong when combined.
