Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides Powder - Chocolate Powder for Hair, Nail, Skin, Bone & Joint Health, 13.5oz

I’ve been using the Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides for a few months now and typically buy the larger container from Costco for home use. I picked up these single-serve packets for travel and work, and they’ve worked really well—easy to carry, no mess, and super convenient to use on the go. I’ve tried incorporating the powder into my daily routine in several ways—mixing it into my morning yogurt, my overnight oats or morning smoothie, and more recently, shaking it into my water bottle with a splash of lemonade or flavored water which is my new preference. Once it dissolves, I don’t notice it at all—no weird taste or texture. It blends in completely and makes it incredibly easy to stay consistent. The individual packets are a bit more expensive than the large tub, but for travel or busy mornings at work, they’re totally worth it. If you’re looking for a simple, portable way to support your collagen intake, I definitely recommend these. I also got them when they were on sale and wish I would have purchased more at that time.

This is by far my favorite collagen. I found it on a whim at Whole Foods last year and have been using it ever since.While I can't speak to the truth medicinal benefits of collagen peptides, I do appreciate the protein boost as well.I have hyper mobile joints and started taking this while in physical therapy for a chronically subluxated shoulder. I don't know if physical therapy alone is to credit for my increased mobility there but I have continued using this as well just in case.Also, as someone with chronically dry skin, I do believe it has helped with my overall skin health as well.I add it to my coffee every morning and it tastes like I'm drinking a mocha! It has never upset my stomach or left a bad after taste.The ingredients are legit and while I can't say whether the results are due to the product's effectiveness or not, I certainly intend to keep using it!

I needed to get more protein in my diet and this seemed like a good addition to other protein-laden supplements and foods I am eating. I use this to add flavor to my coffee in the morning. The vanilla flavor is mild (doesn't override the coffee taste when using half the recommended amount). I have been using it for just a couple of days and so far I am not disappointed as far as ease of use and taste. One MINOR complaint is that the label is very hard to read. Why they use colors that blend so easily is beyond me (white lettering on a yellow background) Long term health benefits remain to be seen.

Price wise it’s a little expensive but taste wise, putting 4 tablespoons of the chocolate vital proteins and 1 tablespoon of Juan Valdez classic Colombian freeze dried coffee in a 20 ounce shaker…it mixes extremely well and it literally tastes like a mocha coffee. 9/10 for taste.I also ordered the lemon which arrived first and I’ll say the lemon tastes HORRIBLE you can force it down but it’s not highly drinkable. Maybe if you mix it with sweet tea but with water I would rate it a 2/10 for flavor. THAT’S WHAT I GET FOR LISTENING TO THE REVIEWS THAT SAID THAT THE LEMON WAS GOOD.

Update: my nails have never been longer and stronger. I get my protein in and it does a great job with skin and nails! Definitely happy with this purchase!Initial review: I honestly bought this so that I can get 20 g of protein in my coffee. I bought collagen peptides (different brand) before in vanilla flavor and i already use french vanilla creamer in my coffee so it was gross. This time i chose this brand unflavored, no sugar, 20 g of protein and I must say I love how quickly it dissolves in my coffee and doesn’t throw off the taste. My review is based on what I was looking for and it does just that. Now as far as skin and nails, I haven’t paid attention so I’ll come back to rate on that later.

So I'm a nurse. I like evidence-based treatment. I had never tried collagen because research has shown little for the positive effects I was looking for myself. However, I decided to give it a try because I was desperate. I was chronically anemic for years before treating it. I had obviously lost a lot of my hair during those years, but had not been anemic for a few years now and still, my hair continued to fall out excessively. I started looking for other things that might help and saw a lot of people saying collagen peptides made a difference for them, so I made a decision to give it a try.People. Let me tell you. Within days of starting, my hair stopped falling out. It's been two months and my hair is still no longer falling out and is growing back in, slowly. My eyelashes are also longer and more dense than they were, which is another awesome side effect. I have not personally noticed any difference in joint pain, sleep quality, or energy, but my skin may be more clear and healthy looking. Negatives: my leg hair and bikini area grow in faster now. XDNote: I am not protein deficient in general, as I lift weights and take a LOT of protein supplements and eat a lot of protein on a day to day basis. This works differently.

I’ve been using Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides (Unflavored) for years now, and it’s become one of those things I always have in my kitchen. I mix it into my morning yogurt, afternoon shakes, and honestly… whatever else I can think of. I’ve even tossed it into banana bread — hey, why not?It blends beautifully, has zero flavor, and adds a nice little protein boost without changing the texture of whatever I’m making. I love how easy it is to work into both sweet and savory recipes, and I feel good knowing it supports my skin, joints, and hair from the inside out.If you’re looking for a clean, reliable collagen that won’t mess with the taste of your food, this is it. One of my ride-or-die wellness staples!
