Ancient Nutrition Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides Powder, Unflavored Multi Collagen Powder Packets for Women and Men with Vitamin C, 24 Servings, Supports Skin and Nails, Gut Health

This is one of the best products I've ever bought. Bacillus coagulans has been demonstrated to deliver mental health benefits (Google the studies) and it has been making a huge difference in that dept. I tried this brand's Gut Restore formula from my local Whole Foods when I was running low and wasn't able to get this one shipped fast enough. That product (Gut Restore) doesn't have nearly as much B. coagulans, and Gut Restore has a lot more other ingredients, some of which I react to (eg peppermint) and the taste made me nauseated. This particular product is amazing in that it is truly taste-neutral. I can use it in sweeter recipes, such as almond milk w vanilla & maple syrup, or savory soups, or sweeter soups like a corn chowder or a tomato/red pepper soup from TJs. There is almost no aroma to the product in the scooper, and the taste is very mild, and even a pleasant addition; it gives a bit of body and depth to the soup or beverage. I will update my review when I have more to say about the structural benefits. UPDATE: So I've been using this product faithfully for over 2 years now. Initially, I did a loading dose at 3x day, because the mental health benefits were spectacular. After about 2 or 3 months, I cut back to 2x day, because the 3rd dose seemed to interfere with sleep. I make sure to have the first dose by 10am and the second by 4-6pm, so it is well on-board by bedtime. Based on the *unplanned* benefits in addition to the mental health improvements, I will be using this 2x day for life. My hair, which was thinning and falling out more frequently, has now grown longer than even since I was a teenager. And my eyelids are repairing themselves; I had a LOT of droop under my eyebrows at the inner eye, and that is now GONE, as if my eyelids have reversed 5 to 10 years of aging. Given the fact that this is so carefully formulated with a broad spectrum of collagen types, and offers b. coagulans (so far, only Thorne has good capsule form), I highly recommend spending your hard-earned cash on this version. Totally worth the money (though I will say, I comparison-shop like a fiend for this product). UPDATE: I now combine this powder with an equal (small) scoop of Ancient Nutrition's bone broth powder in Pacific Foods organic Mushroom Broth. The goal is to boost protein content of a meal into the 25-30 gram range, per Dr Mark Hyman to build muscle. The bone broth powder is hydrophobic--it repels water--electrical charge, i think--has a flyaway tendency. (Update: the manuf. seems to have fixed this. My latest canister wasn't flyaway.) I mix them in a clean, dry mug, using a mini whisk (bought a set of 8 on Amazon) to blend and clear the "corners" at the base of the mug. The collagen neutralizes the charge of the bone broth powder. Using the mini-whisk, I then make a "roux" by adding a tablespoon of mushroom broth and whisk vigorously to consistency of tahini. Finally I add the rest of 2/3 cup of mushroom broth. That way, I get 6 servings from the box of broth and completely dissolved products without big cleanup. The umami factor from the mushroom broth is stellar. I add a little water (1/4 cup?) to the top of my mug, and that makes the concentration of the broth perfect. UPDATE: Awhile back, this product was a life-saver when I endured 2 rounds of doxy following 2 tick bites 30 days apart. (!) The specific bacillus strain helped me stand back from the edge. Because of the gut effects of doxy, I wasn't fully healthy mentally, but I didn't lose my cool and melt down in any sensitive situations. I followed a very disciplined protocol: doxy an hour before a meal with a FULL glass of water (doxy is least likely tick AB to upset stomach), then food after an hour and the collagen powder elixir as a chaser. Tried to buffer the murderous gut effect of ABs with the delay of ingesting the collagen powder. Don't know if doxy/effect is secreted in the gut, but this method helped me hold onto some sanity during what turned out to be 60 days on antibiotics.

I have been taking this consistently now for a little over a month. The hardest thing to get past for me is the taste. There isn't much of a taste, but I'm particular. I've found I like this best with orange juice first thing in the morning and the taste has gotten better. I hardly notice now that I'm used to it. The results were quick and better than I imagined. I have more energy, less cravings, my moods/emotions feel more stable, I feel more physically motivated, and I'm fuller in the mornings and for quite a while. My nails and hair have always grown quickly, but I'm holding out hope to see nail/hair strength more than growth. I've thoroughly enjoyed the results and I will be sticking with it!

I bought the Ancient Nutrition Multi Collagen Protein hoping to improve my skin and joint health, and honestly, it has pleasantly surprised me. The first thing I noticed is that it dissolves really well, especially in hot drinks like coffee or tea. It doesn’t have a strong taste, which is a big plus because I can mix it with almost anything without affecting the flavor too much. It also works great in smoothies. After a few weeks of using it consistently, I feel like my skin is more hydrated and my hair seems a bit stronger. It’s not a miracle overnight change, but it’s definitely noticeable over time. I’ve also felt less discomfort in my knees when exercising or walking a lot. I like that it includes vitamin C and probiotics, which feels like an added bonus compared to other collagen products. The only downside is that the price can be a bit high, but in my opinion, it’s worth it for the quality. Overall, I would recommend it if you’re looking for a complete collagen supplement that’s easy to incorporate into your daily routine.

I have tried Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides and Bullet Proof Collagen Peptides and both were tasteless and left no residue in the bottom of my coffee cup. I tried Ancient Nutrition because of the variety of sources for the collagen and knew that it did not have peptides. It had a slight odor and did leave a slight residue. I switched back to Vital Proteins because it provides peptides and has over 200K reviews. I think Ancient Nutrition is a great product, but not preferable to Vital Proteins.

I've been taking this for over 2 years. It does well with my skin, hair, nails and with my digestion. I definitely noticed the difference with my joints to where I don't have all the aches & pains of aging like I used to. I mix it in my coffee and there is no taste to it. Blends well in hot liquid.

I love this collagen powder. I’ve been using it for about a year and my hair and nails have grown longer and stronger. My skin has improved and looks flawless since using this product. I highly recommend using this product. I put a heaping scoop in my coffee every morning. It dissolves quickly and is tasteless.

This product works for me . Easy to mix and has no after taste. Does not affect my digestivo system , my knees feel good . The price is right for me . I will purchase again .

I got the unflavored. The setting was not as bad as some have experienced. It dissolves easily in my coffee. I got the “tasteless” so it would mix well with my coffee and not change the flavor but it definitely does have a taste of its own - which is terrible. I’ve tried putting half a scoop in at a time but that didn’t help at all. I’ve been using it for just three days but I have to say I have already felt a difference in my joints. I have been in extreme pain due to tendon issues in both shoulders. I had lost quite a bit of range of motion. After only three days I have definitely seen an improvement. If this keeps helping as it appears to be, I will get used to the terrible taste. I have had no digestive issues at all. As for skin improvement so far I have not noticed a change but I assume that will take longer than just three days. I’m just very happy to have the pain in my shoulders already getting better.

¡Genial!

good

One week after I started using it, i can already see a difference in my nails and hair, definitely less breakage. The taste is ok, i always mix it with half a glass of fruit juice.

But unfortunately it was open so didn't get a chance to use it. I sent it back.
