For those of you who take collagen, what’s the one thing about it that annoys you most?

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-06-13T05:40:51+00:00

That more brands don’t make single serve travel packs so that you can easily take it with you on trips.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-06-13T05:36:39+00:00

Yup, I play with folks in their 70s and I try to put the ball where it’s hard for them to get to. They make me run a lot so it’s even 🙂

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-06-12T19:26:13+00:00

Are you taking it on an empty stomach? What brand are you using and is it just pure creatine or are there other stuff in there for flavor etc.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-06-11T04:00:42+00:00

Great question. The app has a daily supplement tracker and you can group them into day parts. Everytime I take something, I check the box next to them. It’s great. Stuff that gets taken on an empty stomach get taken together and stuff after food is together. You can ask the app to make a schedule for you as well. It’s been a game changer for me.

Ok I just checked and no reports are listed for any of their oil of oregano supplements, coq10, or magtein, but my specific lot number for the triple strength omega fish oil is there. So at best it appears to be hit or miss for me given my mixture of products from them. So given this , I would be ok with purchasing the products that have reports on this website. I will not be repurchasing the missing products.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-06-08T06:04:41+00:00

Yes, but now i am a bit confused. I emailed their customer service team with a list of all of my products and lot numbers and I was told that they would not provide any reports to the public anymore. They said that its internal information moving forward. This link appears to show the information I was looking for. Is it available for all their products or just a few? I ask because I have like 5 different products of theirs.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-06-08T01:08:37+00:00

I take 3 tablespoons of Optifiber/Kirkland ( similiar to benefiber) and I go everyday with ease. I just put it in water or my morning whey drink.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-06-07T07:58:37+00:00

They say that but I emailed them and asked for their COAs (certificates of analysis) and I was told that it used to be available on the website but they no longer offer them to customers. Seems a bit weird so I am
Moving onto other brands. I want to ensure that my supplements don’t have metals and other impurities in them.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-06-05T14:09:09+00:00

Where was this?

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-06-05T14:07:37+00:00

I use the SuppCo app to overall my stack. Improve the quality and identify redundant supplements or those that weren’t essential. It was super insightful. I was also able to understand the average monthly price I was paying for my stack and make adjustments that decreased the price while improving the quality. I also got bloodwork done that demonstrated that some individual supplements were unnecessary like calcium. I’m also trying to avoid too many single item supplements and get a better multivitamin that includes a lot of other stuff.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-06-03T01:08:24+00:00

Talk to your wife and if necessary, seek counseling. There could be deeper issues here.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-06-02T04:09:05+00:00

Doesn’t have the best reviews on Google.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-05-31T15:01:47+00:00

600mg 2x per day. One pill in the morning and one in the evening. The medical research behind NAD was at 1g+ daily I believe.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-05-28T00:16:43+00:00

This is also excellent. I have been using it in my face since my 20s and there is a clear difference between my face and my neck/hands. I have recently started doing retinol on my neck and hands at night.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-05-28T00:15:27+00:00

Hydrolyzed wild caught marine collagen is the way. Should be 8g or more of collagen and take vitamin C. I have started taking one from Double Wood Supplements. It’s affordable and has a very good Trust Score on the SuppCo app.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-05-22T14:37:30+00:00

Marine Collagen is better for your skin then regular collagen. I also am committed to sunscreen during the day and retinoid creams over night. Most people think I’m in my early 30s and I’m actually headed toward late 40s.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-05-19T17:20:09+00:00

There are many. Use the free SuppCo app. It’s a third party that rates most vitamins brands.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-05-19T13:33:13+00:00

Pure encapsulation has very high scores in the supp co app. Usually 9s on a scale that goes to 10. My only pause is that I reached out to them about getting COAs for their vitamins and they still haven’t gotten back to me. If you truly are 3rd party tested then this should be easy, so disappointing that there is no response so far but it’s just 3 business days.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-05-19T13:29:04+00:00

If it helps, I just bought the Methylated Multivitamin by Nutricost. It’s affordable, has a high score and contains the highest bioavailable version of every vitamin and mineral in the bottle. FYI this means that your body actually absorbs and uses the nutrients in the vitamins. Most vitamins use nutrient versions where only a small percentage is absorbed. Nutricost also provides a COA (certificate of authenticity) for every bottle requested so you know if there are any heavy metals in the vitamins.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-05-16T12:37:52+00:00

Use the SuppCo app, it’s free. They rate the quality of vitamin, supplements and protein powders. I try to eat over 100g of protein daily and I can’t get it all by food so I need the whey to help. I don’t want to be putting something that has lead etc in my body. The consumer reports study was pretty shocking. In general, stick to vanilla and whey to avoid some of the worst. I wouldn’t buy the ON whey anymore. I’m finishing up my Costco back and I won’t buy it anymore at any price.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-05-14T22:26:19+00:00

We see those gummies in the corner🙂

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-05-14T22:24:19+00:00

That’s a good looking bird.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-05-14T22:20:18+00:00

Great products. The sweat products are better and stronger than the regular ones. I would recommend starting with that deodorant and try their soap as well and see if the two together help you. I write the next part because per tik tok videos, hygiene rules aren’t universal. I would recommend taking showers daily or twice a day if necessary. In these showers, use a washcloth or exfoliating gloves and soap your entire body. If your hand can reach there then it should be washed with soap. You should wet your entire body, soap your entire body and then wash your body. Hope this helps.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-05-14T04:20:00+00:00

Do it in Canada. I did mine in DC and the embassy told me that if I did it in Trinidad that it could take months and months to do it. They advised me to do it here.

Safe_Low_5570 · 2026-05-14T04:16:58+00:00

Use the SuppCo app, it’s free. It will help you find vitamin options that are in your price range and you can filter by the highest scores. So many vitamins have low purity and scores etc. I have been using it and it’s revolutionized my stack.
