Hello jalo~ Hope you're having a good day. Sorry about your broken wrist..I know you will heal faster because of the supplements you're taking. How did you break your wrist? I also have osteoporosis and osteoarthritis in my knees. I have compression fractures in my thoracic region and a bulging L-5....swell, eh?!
But..we go on..I bet your non-dominant hand is figuring it all out. Stay out of pain if you can..by any means..legal...
I'm using red light therapy...far infrared....I use the 'belt' around my mid back, lower back and knees...along with hot wraps from the micro. I toke a bit of Indica with a range of THC of at least 27%....and use CBD full spectrum tincture when nothing else works to relieve the pain. I'm 78 and very healthy...except for the news flash my bones seems to have missed to carry on....so now I'm playing catch up. Yes...I feel the added collagen helps! I've been doing "Codeage" for months and feel progressively better in all my other joints, skin, nails and hair.
I also take turmeric with other combo's. I wish you well!

Hi, can you enlighten us about how collagen improves hair and nails? Thicker, stronger, etc.? What differences do you notice in the living skin?

What collagen product did your doctor recommend?

How much collagen should a person with osteoporosis take per day? I already take 4,000 mg. of vitamin D3, 400mg. of magnesium, and 1,000 mg. of calcium. And 1,000 mg. VitaminC.
