Strength and Beauty
Collagen is a great food to incorporate into your diet to optimise your strength and beauty! Below are some health benefits.
- Better health for your skin and hair thanks to the collagen hydrolysate that improves skin elasticity, moisture, and roughness making collagen one of the most powerful natural skin-care products available.
- According to research and observation, collagen was found to help those suffering from rheumatoid arthritis noticing a decrease in swelling and pain of tender joints. Similar effects were noticed in those suffering from osteoarthritis!
- Supports gut health by breaking down proteins, calming your gutβs lining, aiding with damaged cellular healing thanks to its amino-acid profile that will ‘seal’ the protective lining of your gastrointestinal tract.
- Boost your metabolism via the glycine found in collagen, which forms muscle tissue by converting glucose into energy that feeds the muscle cells.
- Glycine found in collagen also seems to improve the bodyβs usage of antioxidants while also being used in the process of constructing healthy cells from DNA and RNA (source: https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-1072/glycine).
- Arginine from collagen was also found to boost your bodyβs ability to make protein from other amino acids. Thus helping with retaining muscle tissue, as well as boosting metabolism.
- Glutamine found in collagen provides carbon and nitrogen to our cells (source: https://www.aminoacid-studies.com/amino-acids/glutamine-and-glutamic-acid.html).
- Strengthens nails, hair, and teeth, keeping them strong and even have possible therapeutic effects for hair loss and skin-related diseases (eczema, dermatitis, etc) (Source: PMID: 25989472)
- Cleans and treats your liver thanks to glycine that heals your gut, hence minimising the damage that your liver could take from poor digestion and harmful toxins (such as from alcohol consumption, etc.) (source: PMID: 22913202).
- Protects against cardiovascular disease by preventing arteriosclerosis thanks to proline found in collagen, which aids with the release of accumulated arterial fat in the bloodstream, while arginine will promote nitric-oxide production allowing for better blood flow.
- Note: it can be beneficial for you to have a whole food source of Vitamin C when consuming your collagen in order to ensure your body converts collagen into a useable protein (this is why it works well in smoothies).
- Note: you can also access collagen by drinking bone-broth.

I am now on my second package of Collagen from Jotunheim, always use it within my protein shake. It definitely is good for the skin, I can recommend it.

This mixes so incredibly well its hard to believe. I’ve used a handful of other collagen supplements on the market (including more expensive ones) and this doesn’t get clumpy or sticky and stay at the bottom of my cup. My favorite way to enjoy is a scoop stirred into my morning coffee. It doesn’t have a weird taste and gives my brew kind of that velvety mouth feel like a bulletproof coffee. Will be buying more in the future.

No-nonsense ingredients: check. Bovine source: check. So far so good. Do not fool yourselves, this does not taste pleasant. I have tried it in water alone (do not do this), and tried to mask it in a beef gravy drink, which was better. However, do not let this put you off. If you cannot go the way of your glorious forebears and consume bone broth daily, then this is the next best thing.

Good ingredients & taste. I always put in my morning coffee or a homemade banana/eggs/coco flour cake. I don’t taste it in the latter and I actually like the taste mixed in with coffee.
