Great Lakes Grass-fed Hydrolyzed Collagen Powder

Collagen is critical for healthy connective tissues. The most abundant protein in the body, collagen strengthens cartilage and bones, and adds elasticity to skin, hair and ligaments. Collagen Hydrolysate is a concentrated powerhouse of these amino acids. Super soluble, it quickly metabolizes and regenerates tired skin, achy joints, thinning hair and many other depleted tissues.

We’re proud to sell Great Lakes Collagen. A brand leader, Great Lakes offers the finest quality pasture-raised and grass-fed collagen and gelatin.

Amino Acid Peptides Support
Postpartum Recovery

Few life-cycle events are as transformative but taxing on the body as childbirth. As the body readjusts to normalcy, new moms can experience many physical changes, including a weak pelvic floor, fatigued abdominal muscles and thinning hair.

The amino acids glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, which make up 50% of collagen, heals wounds, repairs skin and supports a healthy metabolism. Great Lakes single serve powder packets make it easy to rebuild muscles, reduce stretch marks and get back to your pre-pregnancy agility.

Unlike gelatine collagen, hydrolyzed collagen is a powdered form of collagen that dissolves evenly in liquid. Sprinkle over snacks or food, or dissolve in a warm or cool drink. Odorless and tasteless,  it’s a super-simple protein supplement to include in your busy day.
