Ancient Nutrition Hydrolyzed Multi Collagen Peptides Powder, Unflavored

This is one of the best products I've ever bought. Bacillus coagulans has been demonstrated to deliver mental health benefits (Google the studies) and it has been making a huge difference in that dept. I tried this brand's Gut Restore formula from my local Whole Foods when I was running low and wasn't able to get this one shipped fast enough. That product (Gut Restore) doesn't have nearly as much B. coagulans, and Gut Restore has a lot more other ingredients, some of which I react to (eg peppermint) and the taste made me nauseated. This particular product is amazing in that it is truly taste-neutral. I can use it in sweeter recipes, such as almond milk w vanilla & maple syrup, or savory soups, or sweeter soups like a corn chowder or a tomato/red pepper soup from TJs. There is almost no aroma to the product in the scooper, and the taste is very mild, and even a pleasant addition; it gives a bit of body and depth to the soup or beverage. I will update my review when I have more to say about the structural benefits. UPDATE: So I've been using this product faithfully for over 2 years now. Initially, I did a loading dose at 3x day, because the mental health benefits were spectacular. After about 2 or 3 months, I cut back to 2x day, because the 3rd dose seemed to interfere with sleep. I make sure to have the first dose by 10am and the second by 4-6pm, so it is well on-board by bedtime. Based on the *unplanned* benefits in addition to the mental health improvements, I will be using this 2x day for life. My hair, which was thinning and falling out more frequently, has now grown longer than even since I was a teenager. And my eyelids are repairing themselves; I had a LOT of droop under my eyebrows at the inner eye, and that is now GONE, as if my eyelids have reversed 5 to 10 years of aging. Given the fact that this is so carefully formulated with a broad spectrum of collagen types, and offers b. coagulans (so far, only Thorne has good capsule form), I highly recommend spending your hard-earned cash on this version. Totally worth the money (though I will say, I comparison-shop like a fiend for this product). UPDATE: I now combine this powder with an equal (small) scoop of Ancient Nutrition's bone broth powder in Pacific Foods organic Mushroom Broth. The goal is to boost protein content of a meal into the 25-30 gram range, per Dr Mark Hyman to build muscle. The bone broth powder is hydrophobic--it repels water--electrical charge, i think--has a flyaway tendency. (Update: the manuf. seems to have fixed this. My latest canister wasn't flyaway.) I mix them in a clean, dry mug, using a mini whisk (bought a set of 8 on Amazon) to blend and clear the "corners" at the base of the mug. The collagen neutralizes the charge of the bone broth powder. Using the mini-whisk, I then make a "roux" by adding a tablespoon of mushroom broth and whisk vigorously to consistency of tahini. Finally I add the rest of 2/3 cup of mushroom broth. That way, I get 6 servings from the box of broth and completely dissolved products without big cleanup. The umami factor from the mushroom broth is stellar. I add a little water (1/4 cup?) to the top of my mug, and that makes the concentration of the broth perfect. UPDATE: Awhile back, this product was a life-saver when I endured 2 rounds of doxy following 2 tick bites 30 days apart. (!) The specific bacillus strain helped me stand back from the edge. Because of the gut effects of doxy, I wasn't fully healthy mentally, but I didn't lose my cool and melt down in any sensitive situations. I followed a very disciplined protocol: doxy an hour before a meal with a FULL glass of water (doxy is least likely tick AB to upset stomach), then food after an hour and the collagen powder elixir as a chaser. Tried to buffer the murderous gut effect of ABs with the delay of ingesting the collagen powder. Don't know if doxy/effect is secreted in the gut, but this method helped me hold onto some sanity during what turned out to be 60 days on antibiotics.

It dissolves easily into my morning coffee and does not have a taste or texture. I have not experienced stomach upset or other side effects. I am noticing a reduction in joint pain so will continue to use it.

I was pleasantly surprised to finally find a product that does exactly what it says it does! The menopause symptoms are great (sarcasm) and the hair falling out is enough to make a girl lose her confidence but within a month there was no hair all over the shower floor, the bathroom counter or in my hairbrush that used to look like I killed a rodent with it! My joints stopped acting especially in the morning, there’s no taste to ruin my morning coffee and my nails aren’t brittle anymore! My skin looks smoother but my hair is like it was in my 30’s! I have gotten so many of my friends and family hooked on it and I should be a paid spokesmen!

I have been using this for around 4 months or so (maybe 5), and I believe I see positive results. My hair appears thicker and my joints do not hurt as much. One thing I do notice is that it doesn't completely dissolve. I put it in my coffee and the last sip always has residue in it. I get the unflavored kind, but I find that last bit unpleasant. Not enough to make me stop using it though. I feel this product is beneficial for me and plan on continuing to use it. FYI, I did some research and found that you need to be taking silica with it though. I get the liquid silica. It is tasteless as well. I believe this product is worth trying to see if it works for you. It definitely helps me. You do have to take it every single day to get the benefits and it may take a good couple of months or more to tell if it's helping.

Package arrived on time, however plastic container was bent up, I was still able to make use thou since there were no hole punctures or leakage. Eventhough, its only been a few days, already my gut seems to be responding & more regular, not missing a beat, lol. I ordered the unflavored one thats great in whatever I put it in including my cereal, oatmeal or rice milk that I frothered by adding a scoop full & without changing the taste of what I was eating. Of course, after purchasing this 45 servings, I found 70 servings, same brand at a popular health food market near me priced only $5 more, a better deal because u get more for the buck. As far as the product, so far, so good! "Hats off"!

I started this collagen religiously about 4 months ago after trying several other types for the last 4 years. This one is a Bingo! I definitely wont be looking any further for good collagen. First off, my skin and nails look better than they have in YEARS! My skin isnt dry and i swear my wrinkles are disappearing in certain areas. I lost 90 pounds and had a touch of loose skin around my arms that is even firming up. My feet even look younger. I had wirey grey hair growing that would stick straight up on my head instead of laying down like the rest of my hair. This collagen makes my gray hair look and feel silky. It looks more like blonde highlights against my natural dark hair. I dont even want to color it anymore because of how pretty and silky it is. My nails are super strong and healthy. It seems like im constantly trimming them now. But, lets talk about my knee. I hurt my knee in 2020. I couldn't squat down to the floor for YEARS. Last week at work I squatted down to pick something up and realized there was NO PAIN! NONE! IT WAS GONE! I was able to squat to the floor with a fully bent knee that was said to need "replacement" for the first time in 6 years. Im a special needs mom to my severely disabled adult son. Because of this, mobility is everything to me and will be for the rest of my life. This product is a life changer. Consistency is key. Just buy it. You are worth it.

I have used this product for a long time. I feel the difference in my joints and skin. Blends easily into foods with no taste or texture problems.

I got the unflavored. The setting was not as bad as some have experienced. It dissolves easily in my coffee. I got the “tasteless” so it would mix well with my coffee and not change the flavor but it definitely does have a taste of its own - which is terrible. I’ve tried putting half a scoop in at a time but that didn’t help at all. I’ve been using it for just three days but I have to say I have already felt a difference in my joints. I have been in extreme pain due to tendon issues in both shoulders. I had lost quite a bit of range of motion. After only three days I have definitely seen an improvement. If this keeps helping as it appears to be, I will get used to the terrible taste. I have had no digestive issues at all. As for skin improvement so far I have not noticed a change but I assume that will take longer than just three days. I’m just very happy to have the pain in my shoulders already getting better.

¡Genial!

Very good product

But unfortunately it was open so didn't get a chance to use it. I sent it back.

ES UN PRODUCTO CON EXCELENTES RESULTADOS Y NATURAL, CON 100 % DE EFECTIVIDAD. Muy efectivo en restaurar flora intestinal. No produce más agruras ni reflujos. Y si da crecimiento increíble del cabello. 3 personas de la familia lo van a ordenar. En paginas herbolarias me llegaba en 7 a 14 dias. Y en amazon de miércoles a viernes. Muy rápido.

I have noticed a significant improvement in the elasticity and firmness of my skin, as well as stronger and healthier nails.
