I actually have some experience with collagen powder and I can tell you it's been great for my skin and joint health. Also apparently it is also good for improving gut health and reducing inflammation in the body. Just make sure to get a high-quality powder from a reputable source and follow the recommended dosage. And don't worry about bloating or weight gain, collagen is actually a great addition to a healthy diet and can even help with weight loss... thts what I found out after my research anyways!
