I’ve taken a couple of containers, did fine in coffee,but now I want to ask my primary care doc about it It’s not that it’s bad by itself, but I’ve been reading articles that said women with dense breasts might find that collagen makes scans harder to read because of how it adheres and blocks things. I might be overthinking it, but I’d feel better if she looked into it too because the Internet’s full of tiny studies.

@debraran That's interesting so I did some research. Here's one article I found that summarizes: "Studies reveal that dense or disorganized collagen around tumors can contribute to cancer cell migration. However, this refers to natural tissue collagen, not dietary supplements. There’s no direct evidence that taking collagen orally causes these structural changes."
