The best

People say I have baby soft skin and I recommend this to others and it has helped them with growing there hair and nails

I look and I look at reviews of anything before I buy it, my mom buys doctors best for quite a bit of things so I thought this brand would work! And it’s been 3-4 days of taking these. Mainly got them for my nails. After get acrylics and nail biting and just wrecked nails it was time to try collagen. I’ve done biotin one kind after the next and let me tell you don’t buy that to help nails, that makes me break out more than nail growth but anyways I’m starting to see a change in my nails with this product, but…the bottle says 3 capsules a day, nope no need for that literally. I just take 1 a day. And try out the bottle with less capsules before going to the big to make sure it works for you. Both are good size bottles. If this continues to work well I will buy again; gonna give it a week or 2 to see real results. But my nails do feel stronger and not soft and a less habit of nail biting with taking just 1 a day. No side effects or symptoms for me. But everything is different for everyone’s body! And others my hair feels soft and with a few hangnails (I know, those too) them seem to be getting better in my skin! Collagen is good and healthy for you! 10/10 recommend these if looking for strong healthy long beautiful nails, soft healthy hair and softer glowing skin.

As a runner I am very hard on my body. During a race I wound up developing tendinitis. There’s been some research showing the benefits of collagen 1 & 3 on tendon strength when used in combination with resistance training. I cannot be 100% that the pills help, but my tendinitis has improved significantly. Additionally, the pills are large but easy to swallow with no after taste, while also getting a large quantity for a low price.

I've always had strong, fast-growing nails, but about 3 years ago, my left thumbnail started to delaminate at the nail bed, causing it to split. I cut it short, moisturized it, put oils, salves, and ointments on it, but nothing helped. While researching something else, I found an article about collagen and how the amount of it is diminishes as the body ages. Some further research indicated it could help with nail repair. Here's my experience with Doctor's Best Collagen Types 1&3:1/4 - Took one caplet in the morning on an empty stomach (I read some people have reactions, so I wanted to start off at a low dose).1/5 - Took one caplet in the morning on an empty stomach1/6 - Took one caplet in the morning and one before bed on an empty stomach1/7 - Took two caplets in the morning on an empty stomach1/8 - Took two caplets in the morning on an empty stomach1/9 - Took two caplets in the morning on an empty stomach1/10 - Took three caplets in the morning on an empty stomach. In the afternoon, I removed (with a little work) a piece of something that looked and felt like hardened cuticle from under my thumbnail. I also noticed that the nail was no longer split.1/11 - My left thumbnail looks normal except the white part of the nail dips very slightly into the pink part. The skin under the nail looks normal, even when examined using a 10x jeweler's loupe.I'm impressed. I was hopeful I'd see improvement in a few weeks and maybe even full resolution of the problem in a few months. I never expected such a fast result on a low dose, especially since the nail had been damaged for so long. Again, my nails have always been great, so your results may not be as fast as mine.Edit 1/18/2015: My thumb nail is still growing without a split, but another hard piece is forming at the edge of the nail bed. Maybe it's something that needs to finish growing out from under the nail bed. I'll update again in a few weeks. All of my other nails look even better than usual and my cuticles seem a little less dry, with fewer hangnails.Edit 5/19/2015: I've been taking 3 capsules every morning since the last edit. The hard piece under my thumb nail regrew and still causes a bit of delamination under the nail, but the nail grows much longer before it splits. All of my nails look smooth and I still rarely have a hangnail.

I have been taking Doctor's Best CoQ10 for over 6 years and have purchased every single one from the DB Amazon store. So I love DB's products and was hoping the same with the collagen, but I am not sure how long I can take this for. For some reason when I take it, the supplement gives me a headache and/or makes me dizzy. I tried taking the recommended dosage, which is 3x per day half hour before food, and I had a headache for 2 days. I don't usually suffer from headaches. I thought maybe I am taking them too close to my other vitamins and tried taking one first thing in the morning and I don't take my other vitamins before 4 pm. That did not make it better. I don't know if this may be an allergic reaction, but I am not allergic to fish products, which is the only thing I could think of right now since I am not allergic to anything else, that I am aware of anyway. I am currently breaking the pill and taking one half in the morning and the other half in the afternoon or just taking one half for that day. So far I don't have a headache when I do that. I do still get lightheaded, and for some reason I also have difficulty focusing, which is a no no for my type of work. I need every once of focus I can muster in a day. I am going to contact the company to see if maybe they can recommend another way to take it, b/c I would love to continue taking this supplement as I am already seeing growth in my nails. My hair has been falling out a lot and I did notice a drop in how much was falling out since I started taking the supplements. I would still recommend this brand, but this particular supplement, I don't know.
