Can You Take Collagen and Diastase Together?
May affect absorption
The short answer
Diastase supplements alter the digestive environment and may affect the absorption kinetics of collagen supplements when taken simultaneously.
How to arrange timing
Consider separating collagen from diastase by at least 1 hour. Take collagen on an empty stomach for optimal absorption.

Important context
Whether supplements suit you together also depends on dose, product formulation, health conditions, and medication use. Ask a doctor or pharmacist first if you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a chronic condition.
