Collagen heavy metal content

Question for original poster: what did you decide to do about taking collagen?

I started Osteonaturals collegen last Sept and saw a noticeable difference in skin resilience within a couple of months. Since then I have not noticed anything else.

I am not due for a DEXA until next year.....presently on a drug holiday since last April, after ending Fosomax as the follow-on for Prolia. Trying to convince my new PCP to order CTX and P1NP and have next appointment in a couple of weeks.

@rjd Just to update, I decided to continue taking it. My conclusion was that the heavy metal content was low enough to not be a concern. Sometimes I mix it into a smoothie, but my go-to drink is fat-free milk + 1 tbsp collagen + 1 tbsp Ovaltine. It's a calcium / collagen / vitamin drink all in one.

My wife does take collagen, and she has mentioned something about skin and nails, so I guess it is helping her.
