Thinking about stacking GHK-Cu with oral collagen and elastin peptides

Posted by casey613 in Protocols & Stacks - 28 points, 0 comments.

I have been using the topical GHK-Cu /peptides/copper-peptides for a while now and it seemed to help with some skin texture, but I am wondering if adding oral support would actually do anything or if it is just a waste of money lah. I am looking at a stack with 10g of hydrolyzed collagen /peptides/collagen-peptides and maybe 3g of elastin peptides /peptides/elastin-peptides daily.

I usually do the copper peptides twice a day, but I had that blue skin issue before so I have been more careful with the concentration. If I add the oral stuff, should I time them together or keep them separate to avoid any weird absorption issues? I have seen some people say the oral peptides just get broken down in the gut, but for me, I feel like the joint support from collagen is real, so maybe it works for skin too. Does anyone have a specific timing for this or a different dose for the elastin? I want to see if it helps with the resilience and sagging, but I am not sure if this combination is too much or if I should add something else to make it steady.
