The speaker personally takes 10-15 grams of collagen peptides, 50 milligrams of Vitamin B3, and 200 milligrams of low molecular weight hyaluronic acid daily.

Our digestive system has specific peptide transporters that allow collagen peptides to be absorbed directly into the bloodstream and transported to the skin.

A 2015 trial found Vitamin B3 supplements led to a 23% lower rate of new skin cancers, though later analysis and a 2023 trial have cast doubt on this finding.

When you take hyaluronic acid supplements, your gut bacteria break down the long molecules into shorter, absorbable pieces that are then transported to your skin.

Despite its popularity, a human randomized controlled trial showed Astaxanthin made no difference in skin inflammation, elasticity, or wrinkles compared to a placebo.

While single-cell lab studies suggest hyaluronic acid could encourage cancer, studies in mice with existing cancer showed that giving them hyaluronic acid made no difference in cancer growth.

In a randomized controlled trial with burn patients, collagen peptides healed wounds significantly faster than an equivalent amount of general protein.
