Multi Collagen 2100 mg
HerbTonics
Overview
The effectiveness of this multi-collagen complex is somewhat compromised by the low overall dose of 2100 mg (2.1 grams) across a multitude of ingredients. While individual collagen sources and other extracts have demonstrated benefits at higher doses, it is highly probable that many components are underdosed in this formulation.
The Good
Diverse Collagen Sources: Provides multiple types of collagen (bovine, fish, chicken, eggshell membrane) which may offer a broader spectrum of benefits for connective tissues.
Bioavailability Enhancer: Contains BioPerine (piperine) to potentially improve the absorption and efficacy of other active ingredients.
Additional Beneficial Extracts: Includes Ashwagandha for potential stress reduction and mood support, and Amla Berry Extract for antioxidant and metabolic benefits.
The Bad
Significantly Underdosed: The total 2100 mg dose for a "Multi Collagen Complex" containing multiple collagen types and additional herbal extracts is well below the clinically effective range for most individual collagen types (2.5-10g) and other active ingredients.
Proprietary Blend Obscurity: The specific amounts of each collagen type, Ashwagandha, Amla, and Calcium Fructoborate within the 2100 mg complex are not disclosed, making it impossible to assess individual ingredient efficacy.
Unlikely Efficacy for Key Ingredients: Given the total dose, it's highly improbable that ingredients like Ashwagandha (typical effective dose 300-600mg) or Eggshell Membrane Collagen (typical effective dose 300-500mg) are present at effective levels.
Is it for you?
Best For: Individuals seeking general skin, hair, nail, and joint support
Skip If: You have allergies to common collagen sources (e.g., bovine, marine, chicken) or specific health conditions without consulting a healthcare provider.
