Does anyone take(or have taken) a collagen supplement (non cream/lotion base), and what are your reasons? Just curious...

    Well I have been browsing amazon.com and it recommended the supplement based on my previous orders I guess. Anyway, many of the reviews stated that it helps their hair, skin, joints, and some mentioned the added protein. I have never heard of anyone taking it this way ( with the exception of sipping broth) and was wondering if this was popular. No one mentioned weightloss in the reviews, just health reasons. I work out a lot and was just curious if it would help in terms of repair and such...

    Collagen is the most abundant protein that humans make. I'm not sure what supplement, other than protein, would possibly help with synthesis of collagen.
