- Individuals under medical supervision or taking medication should seek advice from their doctor before use.
Contraindications
- Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women.
- Not suitable for children and adolescents; reserved for adults.
- Individuals with known allergy or hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients (including collagen-derived peptides, crustacean-derived N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, aloe vera, pomegranate or any excipients) should not use this supplement.
- People under medical supervision, taking chronic medication or with underlying diseases (e.g. severe kidney or liver disease, metabolic disorders) should seek medical advice before use.

Adverse Effects
- Generally well tolerated when used at recommended doses in healthy adults.
- Possible mild gastrointestinal discomfort (e.g. bloating, digestive upset, soft stools) in sensitive individuals, as can occur with many oral supplements.
- Potential allergic reactions in people sensitive to any component, including collagen peptides, crustacean-derived N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, fruit extracts or excipients (signs may include rash, itching, swelling or digestive distress).
- In case of any adverse reaction (e.g. persistent digestive symptoms, skin reactions, headache or other unusual complaints), stop use and seek medical advice.
- As with other supplements containing aloe vera, prolonged or excessive use may theoretically increase the risk of digestive discomfort; manufacturer therefore advises against extended continuous use beyond the recommended 3 months without a break.
- Any serious or unexpected adverse effects should be reported to a healthcare professional and to the national nutrivigilance system where applicable.
