Review: Blends well! - I’ve been using this collagen powder consistently for about four years now, and it works exactly as expected. It’s become a regular part of my routine for supporting my skin, nails, and joints, and I’ve been happy with the results. One tip: I always pair it with a vitamin C supplement because that helps boost collagen absorption — definitely worth considering if you’re serious about getting the most benefits. It mixes extremely well, especially in hot or warm liquids like coffee, tea, or cocoa, with no clumping issues. It’s also pretty neutral in taste, which makes it easy to add to different drinks or even recipes. Overall, a reliable collagen product that blends easily and delivers consistent results. I plan to keep repurchasing.
Review: Slightly bitter in coffee, but well worth the price and results! - Taste: Most have said that this has no taste and breaks down easily. I haven’t found that to be true. I tried putting it in juice, and it was clumpy. So instead I put it in my morning coffee, and it made the coffee a little bitter. At first, I thought it was because I was getting over a cold. But then I actually made a cup of coffee the exact same way with and without it, and tasted the bitterness. The vanilla is slightly better. That said, it’s not terrible. It was just slight. As for results: I’ve always had thick hair, strong nails (except for after I gave them gel painted), and supple fairly wrinkle free skin (for a 49 year old). I’ve been taking this supplement for about 8 weeks now, and the one thing that I’ve noticed is that my hair doesn’t break off in the shower anymore. I have very little hair in my hairbrush too. And less “frizz” at the top of my head (my hair is naturally wavy), particularly with break offs. Plus- I sleep fairly soundly and in in the same position throughout the night. And often woke up with a backache/neck ache. I haven’t changed anything about my bed or pillows (wanted to see if this product was worth it or not). And the pain is virtually gone. Therefore, I’d truly call this result successful. So- if I could, I’d give 4.5 stars for the slightly bitter taste, but 5.5 stars for the results. It’s super cost effective, with another brand with essentially the same ingredients costing twice as much as this one! Thus the reason for the full 5 stars!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this product tested for heavy metals? Where can I view the results?**
A: All of our products, including our Collagen Peptides, are tested for heavy metals using third-party vendors. If you’d like to learn more about how a product was made, we encourage you to use the Track Your Lot feature available on our website.

**Q: Besides the new look of your products, what other changes or updates should we be aware of?**
A: Not much! In addition to the new packaging, we’ve updated the Supplement Facts Panel to better reflect what’s inside, including the natural variations that occur from batch to batch.

**Q: Is this dairy-free?**
A: Our Collagen Peptides are made entirely of hydrolyzed bovine collagen peptides and are 100% dairy-free.

**Q: Why might my container appear only half full?**
A: All of our Collagen Peptide products are filled by weight, not volume. Settling of the contents—in addition to other natural variations—occurs over time and cannot be avoided. For reference, look to the average fill line on the side of the packaging.

**Q: Why does my collagen keep clumping?**
A: Collagen Peptides will naturally clump in colder liquids. To avoid this, we recommend adding it to your cup first before adding room-temperature liquids to help the collagen mix faster. Then add ice to enjoy it cold.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you’re going to buy it & use it, the best on the market.
*by C***Y on January 5, 2026*

Okay, so this is the best one I’ve used. Dissolves completely, zero taste, soooo many aminos, vitamins etc in it. Low calorie & has protein. I do love the Sports Research brand for most of my supplements, but i highly recommend this brand for collagen. Has grown my hair & nails so much faster than others. Great amount for the price & quality. I’ve repurchased 6 times. HOWEVER, if you aren’t going to be consistent- no collagen is going to make a difference so actually use it if you’re going to buy it & want results. If hair thinning is something that you are really concerned about- use with nutrafol. I’m a licensed cosmetologist who unfortunately suffers from lupus so I’m combating hair loss from medication & health issues in general. It works. It’s also a great way to get extra protein in esp first thing in the morning w your coffee. I’ve added it to tea, water, electrolyte drinks, & yogurts. Fantastic.
