Multi Collagen Protein Unflavoured
HerbTonics
Overview
While multi-collagen complexes can offer comprehensive benefits, the exact dosage of each specific collagen source within the 'Five Phase Collagen Complex' is not disclosed. This lack of transparency makes it difficult to assess if each type of collagen is present at its clinically effective dose. However, hydrolyzed collagen in general has strong scientific backing for skin and joint health.
The Good
Provides a comprehensive blend of five different collagen types (I, II, III, V, X) from diverse sources (bovine, fish, chicken, eggshell membrane), offering a broad spectrum of benefits.
Uses hydrolyzed collagen peptides, which are highly bioavailable and easily absorbed by the body.
Manufacturer claims to be GMP certified and to conduct third-party lab testing, enhancing product quality assurance.
The Bad
The 'Five Phase Collagen Complex' is a proprietary blend, meaning the precise amounts of each specific collagen source (bovine, fish, chicken, eggshell membrane) are not disclosed, making it impossible to ascertain if each is at its clinically effective dose.
The overall serving size of 7.8g per scoop might be lower than the recommended effective doses for some individual collagen types, especially if one were targeting specific benefits that require higher doses of a particular type.
Contains common allergens (fish and egg), which could be problematic for sensitive individuals, although clearly declared on the label.
Is it for you?
Best For: Individuals seeking to improve skin elasticity, hair growth, nail strength, and joint comfort.
Skip If: You have allergies to fish, eggs, or bovine products, or are pregnant/nursing without consulting a healthcare provider.
