Hyalogic Professional Series Collagen Peptides

Our assessment

The evidence shows that this product contains calcium, a mineral essential for bone health. However, the specific data for "Hyalogic Professional Series Collagen Peptides" is limited to the ingredient calcium listed on the label. We cannot make claims about collagen itself, as no data was provided for that ingredient. For calcium, the data supports its role in bone mineralization and muscle function [NIH ODS].

How it works

Think of calcium as a structural building block for your bones. It supports bone density and mineral deposition, and it also helps with neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. This means it plays a role in keeping your bones strong and your muscles functioning properly.

Safety profile

FDA received 592059 total adverse event reports for all products in this database. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Very high levels can cause poor muscle tone, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent urination, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].

Our recommendation

You should be cautious with calcium supplementation. The data does not provide a specific dose for this product. Before taking this supplement, check your total calcium intake from food and other supplements. If you take any medications, especially those listed for interactions, consult your doctor. Data not available on the specific benefits or risks of the collagen peptides themselves, as only calcium data was provided [NIH ODS].
