Vital Proteins Pasture-Raised, Grass-Fed Collagen Peptides Powder!
CCollagen is the most abundant protein in the body and is a key constituent of all connective tissues. Collagen provides the infrastructure of the musculoskeletal system, essential for mobility. Peptides are short-chain amino acids naturally derived from collagen protein. These natural peptides are highly bioavailable, digestible, and soluble in cold water. The intake of collagen ensures the cohesion, elasticity, and regeneration of skin, hair, tendon, cartilage, bones, and joints.
Collagen is a natural and healthy ingredient that has been used for centuries. Collagen-rich foods are a large part of traditional diets. Our ancestors utilized whole-animal nutrition, which provided an abundant amount of collagen, the native form of gelatin. Over time, we have lost touch with this powerful, healing superfood.
Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides Powder is available unflavored or in a chocolate flavor. It is sourced from pasture-raised bovine hides from Brazil to ensure a natural, high-quality, and sustainable source of this ancient nutritional powerhouse.
Vital Proteins will begin to remove the plastic scoops from all products in November 2022 in order to help reduce plastic waste.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How are the cattle raised?
A. The cattle graze on lush grasslands in Brazil and are not given hormones, steroids, or antibiotics. They eat their natural diet – grass, and receive plenty of open space and sunshine. We believe in providing our animals with an environment that nature intended, and the result is a high quality protein that is natural and pure.
Q. Why is collagen so important?
A. Collagen ensures the cohesion, elasticity and regeneration of skin. Maintaining the proper amount of collagen is the key to beautiful skin. Glycine, proline, alanine and hydroxyproline are the main constituents of collagen; replenishing these constituent amino acids appears to be needed to maintain the amount of collagen at healthy levels. These amino acids are essential for maintaining an even skin structure and thus healthy skin. Clinical research has shown that collagen, a natural protein, also supports bones, joints and muscle tone.
Q. What is the best way to use collagen peptides?
A. Collagen protein is a traditional gelatin formula, this means that it will gel in cold liquids. It is recommended to add to hot liquids, or to use in recipes that require gelatin. Combine 1-2 scoops, one to two times per day with 4 fl oz of cold liquid, add 4 fl oz of hot liquid, mix thoroughly.Drink immediately. Other suggestions include adding it to hot tea, juice, soups, or stews. It can also be used to make homemade marshmallows, fruit jello or desserts like mousse, pie or custards.
Q. What is the difference between these collagen peptides and the Vital Proteins collagen protein?
A. Collagen Peptides and Beef Gelatin Collagen Protein both offer the same amino acids and nutritional benefit, however are slightly different in application.
Collagen Peptides: Vital Proteins peptides may be added to cold or hot beverages such as a smoothie, juice, water, tea, or coffee, as well as a variety of foods such as oatmeal and yogurt. The peptides will not "gel" in cold liquids and they do not alter the texture or thicken liquids.
Beef Gelatin Collagen Protein: The Vital Proteins collagen protein product is 100% Pasture-Raised Beef Gelatin. It will solidify or "gel" in cold liquids and as a result, it is ideal for hot beverages such as herbal tea, as well as stocks, sauces and broths. Hot liquids with collagen protein will solidify once cooled. This product can be used to make fruit gelatin, healthy gummy snacks, or added to meals as a nutritious protein booster and thickener.

Chocolate collagen
This collagen powder is delicious! I put it in my smoothies and it's creamy. Haven't taken it long enough to see results yet but so far I like it.

Whoa
Taking this product I noticed I was super tired the first day, went to bed and didn't get up after sleeping 10 hours! I'm a person who never really dreams, & whoa the dreams I was having! Must've been like 5 dreams total, very vivid. I have to contribute this type of deep sleep to the Collagen Peptides. Take it before bed in some almond milk. I feel more refreshed and focused now day 3. Hope this helps you guys.
