What’s inside
Full disclosure

Does it work?
Moderate evidence

The evidence isn't established yet for acne or athletic performance, so we can't say whether it'll help with those. The ingredient itself is well tolerated as a dietary protein.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Fish collagen peptides are generally well tolerated, with mild and uncommon side effects when taken by mouth. Rarely, some people experience nausea, indigestion (dyspepsia), diarrhea, or gas.
Safety data in pregnancy and breastfeeding is limited — the research just hasn't been done — so talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using if you're pregnant or nursing.
