Weird side effect from collagen gummies? Anyone else get vivid dreams?
Hey all, I started taking collagen gummies about a week ago (the berry flavor from that popular brand). Lately I've been having super vivid, almost cinematic dreams. Like, I wake up remembering every detail. It's not unpleasant, just... odd. Could the gummies be causing this? Anyone else experience something similar? I'm not complaining, just curious!
Vivid dreams from collagen? That's a new one. I've been taking collagen gummies for months and haven't noticed anything like that. But hey, I did notice my taste buds changed – everything tastes a bit sweeter? Maybe it's the sweetener in the gummies? Or maybe you're just more relaxed and sleeping deeper? Either way, enjoy the free movies in your head! 😂
Oh wow, I thought I was the only one! I started taking collagen gummies (the same brand actually) and had the craziest dreams for the first two weeks. I did some research and apparently it could be related to glycine, an amino acid in collagen that can affect sleep and dream activity. It's generally harmless, but if it bothers you, try taking them earlier in the day. Also, make sure you're drinking plenty of water – sometimes vivid dreams can be a sign of dehydration. Stay glowing! ✨
Thanks for the replies! RhinoRich531, I haven't noticed taste changes, but that's interesting. RootRose821, that makes sense about glycine – I'll try taking them in the morning instead of before bed. And I'll up my water intake. Appreciate the tips! Anyone else have weird side effects from gummies? Bright urine? That happened to me with a different supplement, but not collagen.
Bright urine? Oh yeah, that's usually just B vitamins. Collagen gummies sometimes have added vitamins, so that could be it. But as for dreams, maybe it's a placebo thing? Or maybe you're just more mindful of your sleep now. Either way, if it's not broke, don't fix it! Sweet dreams! 😴
