So I bought these collagen gummies hoping they'd help me sleep better (saw some influencer raving about it). First week? Nothing. But then I noticed my skin looked... dewy? Like, literally glowing. And my nails are stronger. Anyone else have random side effects?

Yesss! I use vegan collagen gummies (bc I'm plant-based obvs) and I started them for joint pain from hiking. Instead, my hair stopped falling out! It's so thick now. The sleep thing is probably just placebo but I'll take the glow lol

Hate to be that guy, but most collagen gummies are BS. The peptides are too big to absorb properly. You probably just got better sleep from the sugar or something. Or placebo. But hey, if it works it works, I guess?

@GreenGreg4 Maybe! But I've tried melatonin and it never did this for my skin. So something's up. Even if it's placebo, I'll take it haha. Anyone else notice less stress? I feel oddly calm.

@DewyDaphne507 YES! I thought it was just me. Magnesium in some gummies maybe? But yeah, less anxious for sure. Glad I'm not the only one getting extra perks.
