Hunter & Gather Grass Fed Bovine Collagen Powder 400g | 100% Unflavoured Hydrolysed Collagen Peptides | Hair, Skin, Nails & Gut Health | Type 1 & 3 Collagen I High Protein Supplements for Women & Men

This tastes a bit strange and I would never ruin a cup of coffee with it. I’m taking it because I’m in the perimenopause and it’s been really good for my tricky gut (now I’ve stopped taking probiotics, not feeling bloated or having trapped wind etc) and I’ve found that if I take it with water and magnesium at bedtime it keeps my glucose levels stable and I don’t get those dreaded 3am wake ups. Worth it just for that!

Been using this - the bovine - religiously every day for well over a year. Even took it in holiday with me in summer. I do take it with vitamin c as some studies say the body absorbs this collagen better with it. And vitamin c helps collagen production and everything else too - so might as well! I dissolve it in a strong coffee every morning. It dissolves really well and I have never smelt or tasted it - and I've gone through a lot of bags. My skin is so soft - I'd say that's the most noticeable thing. I used to have sore shoulder/s and this pain has also gone in about 3 months ago. BUT I started taking high strength omega 3 and tablet hyaluronic acid supplements at the same time - so could be a combination of all 3 supplements? They market it as a replacement botox - it's absolutely not. It does not reduce lines, wrinkles or crepey skin on your neck. Only injectables can sort that out and the aggressive marketing does my head in about this! My crepey neck is still there after a year - i have the pics to prove it! The price of this brand has also gone though the roof, so I've just switched to nutrition geeks. Run both through ChatGPT- they've got the same ingredients! I'm so far in now that'll I'll probably take it forever, but not this expensive brand.

Dissolves easily, taste is pretty neutral so for me is fine in coffee and tea. However, the price has risen from £22 to over £30 suddenly. Too expensive.

This is great, can vary in price, normally weight to its £25. I seems to last me just over a month, not used it consistently yet to see a great difference Has no taste and easy to mix in tea or other. I use in Greek yoghurt

This is grass fed cows , hydrolyzed too for easy absorption. I've only taken it for a month and I can feel a difference already

I've been using for 10 weeks, but can't see any discernible results so far. My skin is possibly less dry and may have some "spring back" but it certainly hasn't produced any miraculous results. I realise that it can take longer to see results so that alone hasn't lead me to leave a lower review . I've given a lower score for two main reasons: Firstly, the taste - I don't drink tea or coffee so can't take it that way so have been mixing it with either fruit juice or milk. It isn't easy to dissolve, but if you make it into a paste first before further diluting it that seems to do the trick. The smell is awful though, so I have to gulp it down without breathing in anywhere near it then quickly eat or drink something else to erase the aftertaste. This was true for all 3 of the bags I have consumed. Secondly, my urine went cloudy. I thought at first that it must be a urine infection but then discovered that "consuming collagen supplements may cause cloudy urine if it leads to the formation of kidney stones. Collagen contains hydroxyproline, which is converted into oxalate in the body."[medshun.com] Not a side effect that I was previously aware of!

I was skeptical that powdered collagen could really be mixed in and be tasteless, as I’m quite finicky about these things. Surprisingly this dissolves very well. I now mix it into my morning flat white, have tried it with fizzy Vit C tablet, and MyProtein whey protein powder. For the protein shake, I was perhaps a bit ambitious and added 2 tablespoons of collagen at once, with a small amount of cold water (180ml): there were small collagen clumps at the end — I tasted it: wasn’t the flavor protein powder. I recommend mixing in slowly to let it dissolve and ensuring sufficient liquid. Evidently dissolves better in hot liquid than cold as I learnt. Genuinely no impact on the taste of the beverage. If anything I felt like it made the MyProtein protein powder taste less sweet. I bought the sachets to try and have since bought the large bag for better value. Might be psychological but after 2 weeks my nails seem less brittle (had gel polish on previously). Will continue using for a few months to see if there are any visible impacts. But no ill effects so far, no impact on gut health etc.

mixes well tastes ok probably is working
