Hydrolyzed bovine collagen peptides — Types I and III. Mixes clean in coffee or smoothies. The visible-skin-quality evidence is real (controlled trials) but the effect size is modest.
What it is
Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides is a category-leading product in the collagen space. Editorially-selected for collagen, skin use cases. The label declares third-party testing where applicable.
Suggested use
Follow label dosing. As with any supplement, talk to a clinician before starting if you take prescription medications or have a chronic condition.
A note on selection
We list products that have a real track record (years of use, real users, published research where available) and avoid the wellness-aisle proprietary blends that hide doses behind 'patented formula' language.
