Synergy
What is happening. Both support extracellular matrix integrity in skin and joints; combined use has additive evidence for skin hydration and elasticity.
Mechanism. HA provides extracellular water binding and lubrication; collagen peptides supply hydroxyproline and glycine for matrix synthesis.
Recommendation. Common combination: hyaluronic acid 120 to 240 mg plus collagen peptides 10 to 15 g per day.
