You're getting 20g of **Collagen Peptides** per scoop — right at the top of the 5–20g clinical range studied for skin, joint, and bone support. That's a full effective dose in a single serving, which is uncommon for collagen powders that often default to 10g. At this dose, you're well-covered for skin elasticity and hydration benefits, and you're hitting the range where joint and connective tissue support starts to show up in research.
The collagen is sourced from bovine hide and hydrolyzed into peptides, which means smaller molecules that your body absorbs more efficiently. The powder format makes it easy to mix into coffee, smoothies, or water without capsule burden. With 18g of protein per serving, it doubles as a modest protein boost — though it's not a complete protein since collagen lacks tryptophan.
One thing to keep in mind: collagen synthesis in your body requires **Vitamin C** as a cofactor, and this product doesn't include any. Pairing it with a vitamin C source — from food or a separate supplement — will help you get the most out of each serving.
