Our grass-fed bovine collagen is derived from an environment free of toxins including antibiotics and other drugs. The grass-fed cattle are raised in a healthy, happy environment that uses ethical and sustainable farming practices which results in the highest quality collagen.

There are around 28 different types of collagen that have been identified. The three most common types of collagen in the human body are type 1, 2 and 3.
Type 1 accounts for about 90% of the body’s total collagen content and is found in the skin as well as bone.
Type 2 is found in cartilage, which is the connective tissue that works to protect bones and joints.
Type 3 is a major component of skin as well as muscles, ligaments, tendons and blood vessels.

Collagen makes up about one-third of the protein in our body. It’s what keeps our skin supple, hair shiny, nails strong and joints moving freely. In fact, up to 75% of our skin is made up of collagen – it’s a major component of the integrity of the outer extracellular matrix (aka what gives you smooth, healthy and glowing skin).
Collagen can also be found in bones, teeth, tendons, blood vessels, cartilage and even in our digestive tract. It’s a pretty amazing protein and essential to keeping us strong and healthy.

We recommend taking 10-15 grams of collagen per day for visible results. Up to 30 grams per day is advised for fast-tracked results.

Collagen can be added to hot or cold liquids such as water, tea, coffee and smoothies. Collagen can also be added to your morning oats and baked into cakes or biscuits for a delicious snack.
