Hello, just wondering if anyone had heard that after bowel cancer it’s not advisable to take collagen supplements?
I read that there is mot enough evidence that collagen is benefivial and may in fact be contraindicated. It can also interfere with treatment and it is better to consult your oncologist. They will know your unique profile and can judge. Why did you want to take collagen?
