I've been taking collagen peptides daily for over 10 years now. Last year I switched over to Vital Proteins because I couldn't stomach the number of single-use plastic containers I was throwing away any longer. It is sooooo refreshing to finally have a brand take sustainability seriously, while still producing a quality product. Thank you, Vital Proteins!!!

I love this product, been using it for a year now and I can absolutely see a difference in my skin and joints. I know a lot of people don't like the packaging, and at first I didn't like it either but by my second container I got the hang of how to open it and I actually really appreciate the effort to be more environmentally friendly! I works well for me, no issues here.

Almost 1 month taking Vital Protein Advanced. Purchased the Advanced for the type II collagen for joints. As of today I recommend this 110%! Is there a doubt in my head? I would be lying if I said no. The research and reviews I have read helped me make my decision to purchase. But still skeptical. But the change in the feeling of my knees is like night and day. I take my daily supplement in my cappuccino each morning. Mix with my frother and drink up. About time to order for the next month and I pray that the Advanced formula continues to shatter the doubts in my head!

I like the product - it seems to make a big difference in my nails, and is a good way to sneak in some extra protein. I'm happy I've still got one of the old plastic containers to re-use, though, because it's kind of a nightmare getting the new package opened. No way are my fingers strong enough to pull it open - I use pliers to fight with it and shred the whole lid. Please change it!!

I don't know much about the product since my wife uses it, but the packaging is absolutely the worst. Holy hate!! A moron with only a 3rd-grade education could design a better lid & seal. The instructions are simple enough, but the packaging doesn't match. You literally have to fight & cut your way into it, destroying the seal & lid in the process. What ever happened to the KISS method (keep it simple, stupid)? I told my wife to find another product, one with a simple & effective seal & lid.

Great product. Terrible packaging. If you have any loss of hand strength or dexterity you may not be able the container or will be need pliers or a hacksaw. I ruined the container and had to put in canister. I expect they will respond with an automated message about listening to the customer and taking their feedback seriously. They won't. It's a cost savings measure.

I love Vital Proteins and have been using it for years. I even liked the idea of switching to a cardboard container. But the latest container I purchased now has a top that doesn’t seal! Be careful not to drop or tip it as half your product may spill out which is what happened to me. It seems impossible to me that someone at Vital Proteins decided that was a good idea to have a top that doesn’t seal at all.

Less than 4 weeks and the powder is starting to turn green in the center. Mold spores means the whole tub needs to be discarded. Terrible packaging choice. Will be returning and buying a different brand. Semi-humid climate using air conditioning and it still spoils.

This was my first time using Vital Collagen Peptides- and probably my last. Yesterday my scoops of the powder had plastic like pieces in it. I fished them out, and let it go. This morning, more plastic like pieces! Big enough to see with the naked eye. Sorry, I can’t go through another day like this.

Two things. While I appreciate sustainability in packaging, this is absolutely impossible to open. Last night, the entire container fell on the floor and I lost most of the product just in trying to get it opened! Secondly, I didn’t realize this is NOT a complete protein so it does not replace protein in your diet.
