Collagen Complex

I will be honest in that collagen was probably the best solution for me to start with but because I felt and read a lot of reviews about people taking collagen powder for anti-aging purposes that I wanted to stay away from it because I wasn't looking to turn back time. Luckily the good Lord has blessed me there so far. I needed to focus on something that would help me with my chronic pain with my tendons, joints and overall pain since I have a lot of neurological issues. I was in a bad accident a year ago that changed my life and I have been in consistent pain ever since. I have gotten very sick because of it have lost a lot of weight and muscle mass. Pretty much the muscle mass was the weight I had. Along with being in my 40s and heading into that stage of my life being a woman, you lose a lot of nutrients and become deficient in a lot of things at this point. My body doesn't bounce back as fast as it used to regardless of my old tricks of replenishing what I think I've lost. I don't want to be put on prescription pain medication and I always prefer to go the natural route. I've tried everything from hemp oil, hemp capsules, cherry tart capsules and everything in between and it helped a little but not a significant difference to where I could fully function without thinking about the pain. What I needed was something that would focus on helping my muscles and tendons recover because since I have to do consistent PT everyday and keep my body motivated so I can keep my joints lubricated I needed something that would help benefit my muscles, help with the pain so what I was doing with my body would amount to something. I did a lot of research on collagen proteins because there are many different kinds. I was considering trying to powder to put in my smoothies but I'm really not a fan of it. I literally went through Amazon and read a whole bunch of reviews on different collagen products. All of them focus on anti-aging until I came across Purely Optimal collagen complex product. I read a few reviews that were focused on the same issue I had with my muscles. There was a specific one that resignated with me. It was from an individual who was in so much pain that she was not able to do anything not even her PT. Her chiropractor recommended this type of supplement. She said within 24 hours the pain was gone and she was able to function and it's been a few weeks later and she is in full-blown beast mode in terms of functioning great, feeling good without pain enable to do her exercises. I figured there had to be something to it so I gave it a shot. When I received this supplement I have to be honest within 24 hours I was feeling significantly better! I have been taking it for a few weeks now and I can't go a day without this! Because of this product it is truly working for my body. I have been able to gain back some really nice muscle mass the complement the exercising I'm doing every day. My pain is either gone or depending on the weather very dull. I am participating more in my life like I used to and able to get back to the activities I used to do like hiking in Marathon walking. My husband is even deleted because he has his wife back. It's frustrating when somebody you love has to watch you decline into somebody or not and it changes you. It's amazing how much your attitude changes when your body cooperates and you can do what you want! To say that this product has changed my life would be an understatement and I can't think purely optimal enough for saving me! I already plan on ordering another bottle and will not go without this ever again. The other great part is I do like that the clear capsules are such where you can put the powder inside it in a drink so I do put it in my smoothies. I don't taste anything at all so there's no funky taste that comes with it if you do it that way. I recommended this product to my relatives dealing with similar issues and I would recommend it to anybody in my situation or being older dealing with arthritis, joint pain, tendon pain, chronic pain that comes with things like fibromyalgia etc. This product will change your life and it's a must-have. It has all the right proteins in it to do what you will need it to do. I have also noticed some other nice perks aside in terms of my eyebrows are finally starting to grow back after I over plucked them in my youth so I have to do a double take when I see them! I had to use the fill-in powder for years and I still will need to use it for a little bit longer but at the rate these are going I might be able to put away the powder for good! I put an up close picture up to show you the growth that has happened from this product alone for my eyebrows. The second photo of myself I am wearing the powder because I will need to for a while but that picture is specifically for my hair . For me, this is long hair for now while it's growing out. It was much shorter than that before taking this product ! I think it even looks nicer and is more Cooperative to work with now too. It's funny seeing hair above my eyes and I have to remind myself that it's my eyebrows! My eyelashes are also filling back in. I always had long, full eyelashes. And still do but as I'm getting older the hair is falling out so I have some gaps and the hair is starting to grow back there now! I tried to take an up-close photo for you and point to where an example of my gaps are and hopefully you can see regardless that there is new growth coming in where that gap is it's the little spiky hairs under my finger. I did not put makeup on before taking the picture because I felt it would mask what I was trying to show you. My reviews are genuine and I felt this was the best way to show that. My hair is growing like crazy which is nice for me because I had really short hair and have been trying to grow it out for over a year and taking this product has expedited the process so much to the point that even after a couple of weeks of taking it, I already had to trim my hair in the back so it wouldn't get longer than the front and I am not complaining! My nails are growing like nobody's business so I have to keep them trimmed and my skin even looks better too! Again I am definitely not complaining! So I ordered it for my pain but I am getting a lot of amazing perks that come with the use of collagen. This stuff works you must order it now it will change your life!

This product has the multiple Collages so am hoping to see or feel the benefits accordingly as time goes on. Thus far I have noticed a significantly improved look and feel of my nails. I am older and have noticed an increase in the ridges, the increased brittleness and the thinning of my nails for the last 10 years. This Collagen has literally taken 10 years off my hands. My nails are smooth and soft to the feel. My nails are no longer peeling, which was actually a much longer problem I have had, probably more like 15-20 years, and they are no longer chipping. Also, as stated above I am older so have your typical aches and pains. I have noticed a decrease in my knee joint pain and in my SI joints as well. I will not say the discomfort is gone but I can say it most definitely is better, I am taking less anti inflammatory medications daily, which is wonderful. In the mornings I am not as stiff and feel like I am getting more done earlier because of this. I have not gone to have my blood work done yet but will update if possible when I do, I am hoping it will help with my thyroid and blood sugar, time will tell. I am not diabetic but consistently hover a few points over the "recommended" level, same with the thyroid but on the low end, so the blood work should be telling. Oh and one last thing, my hair is growing like crazy! Not sure how thrilled I am about this as it means more trips to get a hair cut, hence more money, lol, but I think for folks that are looking for this as an improvement should be very happy with the results. I have a LOT of tiny baby hairs coming in as well, so I think I will have to suggest it makes your hair thicker as well as longer. All in all I find this to be an excellent product and would highly recommend.

I was searching for a supplement that would help keep my skin resilient, nails strong, and with hair thickness. I’ve found that after taking a low dosage of hydrochlorothiazide for mild hypertension following a recovery from surgery related sepsis, that my hair was thinning. Also, my nails began weakening and I began to notice the first signs of the dreaded “skin crepe”. I wanted to be proactive in doing something before any of this escalated, so I substantially researched the possible benefits of taking collagen supplements. Additionally, I adopted a lifestyle three years ago that focuses heavily on whole foods, with no animal products. I understand and had to make a decision whether animal based collagen would be right for me, and after much consideration and research, decided that I would be ok with this, considering not only beauty related benefits, but the importance of collagen for overall optimum health, including healthy bones and joints (I was also beginning to experience joint pain, which really concerned me). Anyway, I came across this product, which received many glowing reviews and decided to give it a try. While after almost completing my first bottle, I cannot say much for noticeable improvement of hair or resilience of skin, it seems my nails are a bit stronger, and I do not notice joint pain (if this is due to these collagen supplements, then it’s a huge gain!) I forgot to mention that I’m approaching fifty (which blows my mind..where’d the years go!?) and realize my body’s lack of ability to create its own collagen. Another important benefit worth mentioning (although feels weird just writing this because it’s such a private subject) is it noticeably improves regularity. If you’re desiring daily, full movements with noooo problems, then this is the supplement for you!). That alone makes this a winner, the other potential benefits would be definite bonuses! I eat well, stay active and hydrated, drug and alcohol free, etc., but can still have issues sometimes...this helps dramatically and promotes a more healthy “feeling” from fuller eliminations. Icky subject, but necessary part of health, so there ya “go” (little pun for your enjoyment). Bottom line: I’d like to continue taking this supplement and would recommend at least trying it to anyone concerned about collagen loss in general. Hope this probably too-long review helps at least one person. ;)

I have noticed that my skin looks healthier. My face has recovered elasticity and a much even color. I don't see as many fine lines around my lips. My skin seems to absorb moisturizer creams better. My feet feel smoother making time for pedicure easier. My hair have grown longer and my nails have grown faster and stronger. My eye lashes look thicker. My knee joints are not as stiffed as before. I can get on my knees much easier and without support. My muscles look more toned and have better definition specially after working out. Over all, everything has improve and I have high hopes to receive good news on my next bone density exam.

It made my nails grow so much stronger & faster, my hair seemed to grow quicker but I was really hoping it would help with hair loss I've been experiencing the last few months but I'm starting to think that might be caused by hormones or something. But the main reason I got it is because I've been suffering from adult acne for nearly 2 years after 32 years of a perfectly healthy & glowing complexion.... While taking this supplement my skin improved so much I could tolerate looking in the mirror again!! After I ran out I tried another brand's complex & it hasn't been nearly as beneficial in any of the areas I've mentioned.... I also noticed slightly less pain in my elbows & knees, but I'm not sure if that's due to this or the magnesium supplement I started, but the stuff I can attribute to the collagen is definitely enough for me!! I will update with photos once I purchase another bottle because the other brand I tried for comparison after this bottle ran out wasn't nearly as good!!

I’ve been trying these collagen capsules and so far my experience has been really good. What I like the most is that they combine collagen with biotin, which makes them a complete option if you’re looking to support hair, skin, and nails in one capsule. The presentation is practical, the capsules are easy to take, and they don’t have a strong taste. After a few weeks of use, I’ve noticed my skin feels more hydrated and my nails are less brittle, which is something I’ve always wanted. My hair also looks shinier, which motivates me to keep taking them. Overall, I see it as a great addition to my daily routine, especially if you want to give your personal care a little boost from the inside. I’m satisfied with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone looking for a quality collagen supplement.

Won't buy them again

Been using this for years & I'm 37. I absolutely see results in my hair, skin & nails. I have Raynaud's & this keeps my nails from peeling & breaking which is something I dealt with forever before I found these. The dose is 4 a day & I only take 2 & that works great so far. They are really large pills & can be difficult to swallow, just FYI. On occasion when I run out of these, I see a difference in my hair, skin & nails almost immediately. Fully recommend.

Have been taking these for 3 weeks now. I wish it was 1 capsule per day instead of 4 but it’s fine since I have no issues with taking supplements. Nails are growing very fast! I need to cut every week now instead of every other week. I recently got a haircut to see how well and fast my hair can grow. My skin has also been smoother, plumper and experiencing less breakouts. Didn’t change my skin care routine for consistency. So this means it’s really working. The bottle comes with a not saying I can get a free bottle if I do a review or survey but it’s only for USA I believe. A pity!

Awesome capsules Happy to get this

i received delivery on 02 Sept and started right away and followed the instructions. . i bought this type of collagen because of the good reviews, but i do not notice any positive result since I started taking the tablet. the box says i can order a free bottle by login in to Purely Optimal website, i tried many times but failed to order my free bottle., my bottle is almost empty and Im having seconds thoughts if i should buy again or switch to a different brand of collagen that is much more cheaper in price.

Sinceramente es lo mejor que he probado en colágeno. Tengo entendido que los peptidos distribuyen el colágeno hacia donde se necesita más. En mi caso, mi cabello cambio y creció, mis uñas y mi piel se ven mejor. Adquirí otra marca y no veo el mismo resultado. Mis articulaciones mejoraron mucho. Volveré a comprar esta marca. Aunque caro, vale 100% la pena.
