Does D-VINE collagen have side effects? Safety tests, who shouldn't take it and who should ask first (2026)

Short answer: D-VINE is a Health Functional Food, not a drug. SGS detected none of 365 common adulterant drug components, and no heavy metals or microorganisms; Intertek detected none of 410 pesticides and no preservatives; and it is JAKIM Halal certified. The most important point: its collagen comes from fish (freshwater and marine), so don't take it if you are allergic to fish or seafood. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, on prescription medicine or treated for a diagnosed skin condition, ask your doctor first.

It doesn't replace sunscreen

The polyphenols build up in the body and support sun defence from within, but they add to sunscreen, they don't replace it. Wear sunscreen every day.
