Hey Nutrition Collagen Complex Hyaluronic Acid & Sea Kelp Vitamin E, C, Biotin - Healthy Nails, Skin, Hair Joints Metabolism - Type 1 Marine Supplement - Non GMO, 60 Capsules

Product Information

To start, 1000 milligrams is not a particularly high amount of Collagen. I mean, proper powder supplements like the Truvani Marine Collagen (review) typically offer no less than 10 grams of the protein per serving. So, to have 10-fold less likely won’t be that beneficial [ R, R, R, R, R, R, R, R, R]. According to the manufacturer, Hey Nutrition Collagen Complex “delivers potent doses of natural ingredients to help diminish the appearance of fine lines, prevent new wrinkles, improve hair and nail health, protect skin against UV rays and pollutants, improve immune function, and aid with weight management & joint health.” So, it sounds amazing [ R]. As for vitamin C, while Hey Nutrition Collagen doesn’t seem to care to provide the exact label of ingredients, I believe that this we do not get in its most effective form that, say, fruits like oranges provide. Instead, it’s likely the synthetic version of the vitamin known as Ascorbic Acid [ R, R, R]. I mean, something like the Skinny Fit Super Youth (review) and the Olly Undeniable Beauty (review) are great examples to illustrate that. As for Hyaluronic Acid, it’s a very natural substance. We can actually find it in our bodies even without supplementation. But augmenting the amount of it through supplementation can help reduce wrinkles, delete dandruff, support skin elasticity, youthful look, and skin health overall, improve eye and joint health, and more. The only downside is that supplements typically offer about 50-100 milligrams. This is just 20 [ R, R, R, R, R].

As for Biotin (vitamin B7), 1,800 micrograms is actually not that much for a hair, skin, nail supplement. For example, supplements like the Natrol Biotin (review) and Solgar Biotin (review) have these in amounts of 5,000 micrograms. That said, I think 1,800 micrograms is a far better option as far as regular use goes. As for Sea Kelp, it’s a large brown algae native to deep saltwater. It’s very nutritious and it has plenty of benefits to offer. Kelp can improve weight loss, support hair health, help fight diabetes, improve cholesterol levels, aid longevity, bone health, thyroid function, and muscle function, as well as provide anti-aging benefits among other things [ R, R, R, R, R]. On that note, based on what I’ve seen with similar products, I would assume this has a global success rate of around 89% or 90%. I mean, don’t get me wrong, it has its positives. It’s Non-GMO. It’s sustainably sourced. It comprises a pretty unique ingredient combination. It does it by the way of only harmless additives. So, it definitely has its charm. To illustrate, something like the Vegetable Magnesium Stearate that we find in supplements like Genacol Pain Relief (review), I would consider harmless. Granted, most of the internet will try to convince you that it’s not. But that’s just an ill interpretation of the available research (high-profile doctors agree) [ R, R, R, R, R].So, it looks quite thrilling. But is it truly the powerful all-in-one solution that it is marketed for?

Previously, before writing this Hey Nutrition Collagen review, I haven’t really encountered the Hey Nutrition brand. And it seems like a good brand. It’s just that their attempt at doing Collagen I’m not that fond of.Well, it’s hard to say because the Marine supplement of this review isn’t exactly straightforward about the ingredients that it contains. I mean, nowhere do they share with us its actual label. And that’s actually rare to see because most supplement manufacturers are very upfront about that. As for free-of claims, we’ve got claims saying that it’s Non-GMO, Dairy-Free, Pescatarian-Friendly, Artificial-Flavors-Free. Side effects are typically the product of additives. Additives are the “glue” ingredients that help keep it all together. And thus, no capsule supplement ever can really do without them. But they can go both ways. They can be harmless. And they can be harmful. But that’s something extremely important here because we have Marine Collagen (and Kelp as well) that suffers from contamination due to ocean pollution. So, they must be properly purified. To that end, it is my belief that they have to be third-party tested otherwise, we just can’t be sure (and because it’s so important).

It’s a substance created from a polysaccharide extremely abundant in both vegetables and fruits which is known as Cellulose. While enormous amounts of it can create side effects like bloating, constipation, or diarrhea, it’s very unlikely to happen. In fact, it’s far more likely to simply grant some slight benefits [ R, R, R, R, R, R]. I mean, don’t get me wrong. Ascorbic Acid can be plenty of help. In fact, in studies, it has been shown that there is, essentially, no difference between the two if the body really needs vitamin C [ R, R, R]. Another example would be the Potassium Sorbate that we find in supplements like the Vim & Vigor Collagenate (review). It uses something known as Potassium Sorbate. But that’s a substance shown in a few studies to potentially damage white blood cells. Which can in turn damage DNA. Which can lead to cancer among other things [ R, R, R, R, R, R, R, R, R]. Overall, heightened amounts of Biotin have been shown to improve liver metabolism, aid energy levels, promote the nervous system’s health, support healthy blood glucose levels, foster macronutrient metabolism, help battle cancer, Crohn’s, Rett, and Parkinson’s, as well as among other boost hair, skin, and nail health [ R, R, R, R, R, R]. So, in this Hey Nutrition Collagen review, we will look at what this Marine Complex has to offer and is it truly something worth looking into getting.

Another thing to potentially add to that is the fact that they don’t claim to source it from Wild-Caught, Deep-Sea fish which I would say is the best way to go. However, even if they don’t, I wouldn’t consider it a negative due to the following fact [ R, R, R, R, R, R, R, R, R].
