Skin, hair and nails that look their best, connective tissue support, and easy protein, in one scoop.
- Skin, hair and nails that look their best.
- Connective tissue and joint support.
- Workout recovery support.
- Easy protein. 6 g per heaping tablespoon, 25 calories.
Why it fits bioenergetic living. Collagen is rich in glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, the amino acids muscle meat is short on. Glycine is a calming amino acid, and balancing a meat-heavy diet with collagen is a classic nose-to-tail move.
What you get:
- Grass-fed beef collagen hydrolysate, Type I & III, from beef hides sourced in Brazil.
- One ingredient. GMO free, not irradiated, BSE/TSE free, melamine free, gluten free.
- Dissolves in hot or cold drinks (best in hot). Coffee is the classic; it also hides in smoothies and soups.
- 12 oz (340 g).
Customers notice: "My hair is shinier and my skin and nails are so healthy!" Another: "It has no flavor and mixes well in my shakes."
60-day no hassle returns.
How to start: Half a heaping tablespoon a day in coffee, tea, or a smoothie.
Raising slowly: Work up to 1 heaping tablespoon (about 7 g) a day — one serving.
If it doesn't sit right: Feeling heavy or bloated? Drop back to a smaller amount and build up again.
Dissolves best in hot liquids. Store cool, dark, dry.

Collagen: what the research shows
These studies cover collagen hydrolysate and gelatin in general; some used specific collagen products, not this powder.
Skin appearance
Proksch E, Segger D, Degwert J, Schunck M (2014). Oral supplementation of specific collagen peptides has beneficial effects on human skin physiology: a double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Skin Pharmacol Physiol 27(1):47-55. PMID 23949208.
de Miranda RB, Weimer P, Rossi RC (2021). Effects of hydrolyzed collagen supplementation on skin aging: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Int J Dermatol 60(12):1449-1461. PMID 33742704.
Across trials, hydrolyzed collagen improved skin hydration and elasticity.
Connective tissue
Shaw G, Lee-Barthel A, Ross ML, et al. (2017). Vitamin C-enriched gelatin supplementation before intermittent activity augments collagen synthesis. Am J Clin Nutr 105(1):136-143. PMID 27852613.
Absorption
Ohara H, Matsumoto H, Ito K, et al. (2007). Comparison of quantity and structures of hydroxyproline-containing peptides in human blood after oral ingestion of gelatin hydrolysates from different sources. J Agric Food Chem 55(4):1532-5. PMID 17253720.
Collagen peptides show up in the blood after you take them.
Bioenergetic & low-toxin perspective
Ray Peat wrote at length about gelatin (cooked collagen) as a calming, protective protein.
"Glycine is recognized as an 'inhibitory' neurotransmitter, and promotes natural sleep." — Ray Peat, "Gelatin, stress, longevity" (https://raypeat.com/articles/articles/gelatin.shtml)
A study Peat cited in that article: Baines AD, Shaikh N, Ho P (1990). Mechanisms of perfused kidney cytoprotection by alanine and glycine. Am J Physiol 259(1 Pt 2):F80-7. PMID 2375394. Glycine protected cells under stress.
