lurawilson, it is only my opinion, but once you have an OP diagnosis, you must remain ever vigilant—make sure you are addressing the deficiencies in your diet and doing whatever you can to support your metabolism. Since collagen is a major component of the bone matrix, collagen peptides provide an easy way to incorporate this into your daily diet. For that reason, I find them indispensable as a dietary supplement.
Sure, you could go off them, but you better be extra careful that you are getting sufficient collagen from your food.
I’m not familiar with Dr. McCormick’s Osteocollagen-Pep, though many people seem to have been helped by him. I’m just leery of anyone who has a story to tell and a product to sell!
