[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After receiving this as a gift, I noticed that this product unfortunately uses a genetic Vitamin C which is listed as (Ascorbic Acid) I don't know why 90% of products claiming to have Vitamin C are the genetic kind which unlike natural Vitamin C can have negative side effects over time like vericose veins etc....TAKE THIS GENETIC CRAP OUT OF YOUR PRODUCT, people can get natural vitamin C from squeezing a lemon into their drink which has a HIGH concentration of Vitamin C and ALL natural!!! Check ALL products that say Vitamin C and if they list (Ascorbic Acid) right after the Vitamin C (due to required law) then you know it's the "GENETIC" Vitamin C and AVOID these products!

Compared to competition like Bulletproof, I personally think VP's Collagen Peptides are superior. First, it's a better value per serving, without compromising quality, especially if you subscribe. Second, it dissolves much better. Third, I'm a sucker for free and fast shipping. My only criticism is the claim that it is flavorless. I disagree. I think it taste exactly like what it is. Beef.

I think I noticed a difference in the first week of taking these collagen peptides! No more joint pain - much faster recovery. I've introduced it to most of my family & several friends who are now taking it as well!! This stuff is the BOMB!!! Thank you!!!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had been using a collagen supplement for two years and decided to switch to Vital Proteins recently. Am I ever glad I did! It is way more effective than my former brand! The thing I’m most thankful for is the help it’s given me with achy joints. Very much improved with Vital Proteins. My nails are much stronger now as well. It took only about 10 days of use to notice the difference.

I just received my 4th package of Collagen peptides, so I've finished a full 3 months. I have definitely noticed a difference in my skin and hair. I'm almost a year postpartum and I am one of the unlucky mama's that suffer postpartum hair loss. This stuff has helped it to grow back much quicker than it usually does. My skin is also more even toned and I've had zero breakouts. I think there is a slight flavor, but it doesn't bother me and it's almost undetectable when added to my coffee with almond milk creamer. I highly recommend it!

I purchased this because I was in a car accident and had a deep wound on my leg. My Dr was using collagen to help heal the wound. I decided to try Vital Protein to see if adding collagen to my diet would help the healing process. My leg wound is doing great and as an added bonus the fine line on my face seem to be fading a bit. I am a fan of these collagen proteins and plan to continue use.

I've been taking this for a little less than two year now. It took about 8 months for me to notice any improvements in my hair and nails. I could never grow my hair past a certain point for my entire life and now it has grown about 2-3 inches past that length. My nails are noticeably stronger (although still very weak), but actually grow and have some length to them. This has been the only product that has worked.

I'm done with this product, as they have decided to cheap out and not include a scoop. The hilarious part is they are claiming to be more "green " by excuding a scoop, when the container is plastic. The level of hypocrisy is thru the roof, and their cheapness is blatantly on display. Stop acting like you care for the environment...you're just CHEAP. I will go out of my way to dissuade anyone from buying this when people ask me about collagen. Shame on you

I have been using Vital Proteins for a few years now and I LOVE it!! If it isn’t a part of your daily routine, it should be! It truly is vital for your joints esp if you work out like I do and bonus it’s awesome for your hair, nails & skin! It dissolves into whatever you mix or blend it with and has no taste so it won’t alter the flavor! This stuff is the best!! #getchasome

I started adding vital proteins collagen peptides to my diet a little over a year ago and cannot believe how beneficial it has been. I'm a endurance athlete competing in 2-3 marathons a year (ps I loved the booth at the Boston marathon this year!!!) and a handful of half marathons as well. I train for an average of 2-3 hours a day 6 days a week so my body NEEDS all of the protein it can get. I honestly can't say enough about how amazing the vital proteins collagen peptides have been for my training and lifestyle. My body recovers faster, my muscles never ache like they used to the day after a tough workout, I feel like I can push harder in workouts without fatigue setting in and to top it off my hair feels so much stronger and thicker. I really like adding two scoops of collagen peptides to my morning coffee in the blender and then giving it a quick spin. It turns into the healthiest most decadent latte ever!! I have recommended this to all my friends and family regardless of activity level because I truly believe it makes our bodies perform optimally. Love love love!!!! Keep doing what you're doing vital proteins because it's amazing!!!
