Why Should You Take Collagen?

Before supplements, collagen was obtained in the diet from bone broths or slow-cooked organ meats. Considering that collagen is within every connective tissue such as the skin, hair, nails, and bones, chances are you’re not really getting any collagen in your diet through eating liver and onions. Supplementing with collagen hydrolysate might be worth considering.

Our hydrolyzed grass-fed collagen protein doesn’t clump and is easy to mix into a delicious smoothie, cookies, sauce, shake, or even plain water. You can even mix it in your coffee (or any other hot beverage) since it’s virtually tasteless and more heat-stable than other forms of protein. Hydrolyzed collagen is also a great alternative for those who have digestive issues or who don’t consume dairy.
