Collagen for osteoporosis?

I've been taking Vital Proteins with 20g of collagen peptides, but have wondered if this is the best one. I saw another one advertised with a much higher level, but not sure what's best. Regular doctor and rheumatologist both shrugged and said collagen is not likely to do much of anything.

Dang.
Hmm

Hi,
I take Algaecal Plus and had good results with it but then I tested positive for autoimmune disease and started having reactive arthritis about every 6 months. I know that my bones have suffered because of this. I have an appointment in April for a DEXA so I will find out.
My pc doctor and rheumatologist both say no to collagen but I'm interested in the new collagen complete from Algaecal because I definitely won't do the Reclast that the doctor said he would recommend for me! That's why I take Algaecal because I wouldn't take Fossamax. He was OK with that after I had good results with it.
