In which cases you can take collagen - doctor

Experienced endocrinologist, nutritionist, therapist, nutritionist Olena Davydenko talked about collagen supplements and in which cases it can be taken.

As the doctor notes, everyone knows about the benefits of collagen, but little is said about the fact that not everyone and always it can be useful. Olena Davydenko points out that such a complex protein as collagen is not so "safe".

First, collagen supplements contain an amino acid called hydroxyproline, which the body metabolizes into oxalate. When the system is overloaded with oxalates, they can stick together and form crystals (kidney stones), so people who have kidney disease or diseases that affect kidney function (chronic urinary tract infection, metabolic disorders, inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn's disease, ulcer colitis) should refrain from taking collagen or take it after consulting a doctor.

Secondly, in case of impaired bile flow, taking collagen can lead to crystallization of bile in the bile ducts.

Thirdly, with inflammatory diseases of the liver, collagen accumulates and hardens around the tissue of the organ (I described this briefly and crudely, but the point is the same), and as a result contributes to even greater inflammation. Such excessive deposition of collagen can later lead to fibrosis and even cirrhosis.

Experienced endocrinologist, nutritionist, therapist, nutritionist Olena Davydenko talked about collagen supplements and in which cases it can be taken. taking collagen can promote thrombus formation in people with thrombosis, thrombophlebitis, varicose veins, because collagen affects blood coagulation and promotes sticking (activation and aggregation) of platelets to each other, that is, it promotes the formation of thrombus. In a healthy body, such aggregation has a protective adaptive nature, but when there is already a disturbance in the work of the vascular system, it can lead to a pathological effect.

If, for the above-mentioned diseases, taking collagen is necessary for some reason, then it should be taken in a short course and under the supervision of a doctor.
