As far as I can tell, gelatin is gelatin.

It didn't but I notice that my plantar fasciitis and some other aches in the knees and backs seems slightly better. It's not a miracle cure but it helps and since gelatin is versatile in the kitchen, I keep it on hand. It's best in smoothies where you can disguise the texture. I read a couple quick articles comparing peptides to gelatin and one mentioned that gelatin is better at helping digestion. I imagine it brings more water into the process and helps things bulk up while maintaining flow. I hope that description is vague enough for family friendly internet posting ;)EMLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10618112674581997416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-3166817482490468842018-09-25T09:20:46.141-04:002018-09-25T09:20:46.141-04:00I haven't tried it, but I have heard of collag...I haven't tried it, but I have heard of collagen supplements for all the things you listed, and particularly about the elasticity of skin. I agree that some things work for some people and fall flat for others. I've been trying different brands of R-Lipoic Acid for my neuropathy and have had good success with some, while others (ironically the more expensive one) did nothing for me. So I do think it's a matter of trying different brands, but always with the knowledge that something might not be effective for my particular body. It's a bummer when you don't get the great results as others experience. dalbador1https://www.blogger.com/profile/09877799102438622117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-69056110594402299102018-09-25T07:09:41.884-04:002018-09-25T07:09:41.884-04:00I think it's one of those things that just wor...I think it's one of those things that just works for certain people that maybe don't get what they need from food or who knows. It's also one of those things where the scientific studies come out every few years and contradict each other. Try it for yourself and see if it helps is the way to go with most things as long as there is no potential for harm involved.The Mr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04233628447251244134noreply@blogger.com
