I've been trying to look through RP articles for things that lower collagen production, but even though he mentions increased collagen production is not a good thing and talks about how E/5HT/NO are the causes of it, he doesn't seem to go into detail about substances that target collagen production specifically. Some of the things he mentions actually can increase collagen production even though they are pro-metabolic overall. For example I think fructose can increase collagen production in some situations because it is anabolic.
Coffee inhibits collagen production and so does nicotine because they are not growth-promoting like fructose, but are there other things? Aside from the general increased thyroid/CO2/progesterone.
