Collagen is a hard, insoluble, and fibrous protein that makes up one-third of the protein in the human body. Your body synthesizes Collagen from special amino acids found in various foods. Our bodies also need certain minerals and vitamin C to manufacture collagen. The collagen protein powder comes from pasture-raised cows that are grass-fed and never given GMO-feed or antibiotics.Why is it important to use hydrolyzed Collagen?Dietary collagen is difficult to digest and not very absorbable. It also mixes poorly into liquids. Hydrolyzing collagen involves breaking up the difficult-to-digest proteins into easily digested collagen peptides, or chains of beneficial amino acids. This ensures far greater absorption and bioavailability. Hydrolyzing collagen also guarantees that it mixes easily into hot or cold beverages without clumping. It is what makes this unflavored collagen powder so versatile and effective.What time of day should I take the Collagen? Collagen supplements can be taken any time, day or night. I like to mix a scoop or two of this product into my morning smoothie or add it to my hot tea before bed.How long should I take Collagen? Collagen can be used indefinitely for the best results. Many of my patients take Collagen every day and have done so for years. Using collagen supplements consistently may help you maintain overall health and well-being.Is it safe for my child to take Collagen? Collagen is safe for most kids, so long as they do not have a legitimate beef allergy. Collagen can help kids grow strong healthy bones and teeth! Although we recommend speaking with your pediatrician ?before introducing any new supplements, including protein powder or collagen peptides.Is Collagen okay to take while pregnant or nursing?Yes. Provided you are not allergic to Collagen protein from beef, on any prescribed medications that could be contraindicated, or have been advised by your physician not to take collagen for any reason, then The Myers Way? Collagen Protein is safe to use in doses recommended on the product label. If you have any concerns whatsoever, I always recommend speaking with your physician or other qualified healthcare provider.I¡¯ve heard collagen can contain monosodium glutamate (MSG). Does your collagen contain MSG?Absolutely not. Collagen protein generally contains about 11% glutamic acid by weight, which is actually significantly less than beef, poultry, rice protein, and many other foods. Another important fact to be aware of is that almost all of the glutamic acid, a normal amino acid that occurs in most foods we humans eat, is bound in amino acid chains called peptides in Collagen. Very little glutamic acid in my Collagen is in its free form. What is in the free form, is most certainly not chemically bound to sodium to make MSG. In fact, Collagen contains less processed free glutamic acid than orange juice, honey, grapefruit and lemon juice, and even breast milk. To summarize, there is no MSG in my Collagen and very little free glutamic acid!Is Collagen Protein damaged by heat?All proteins are damaged by high heat to some extent. Proteins are long chains of amino acids bound together. High heat can potentially fold and warp the amino acid chains into new shapes and structures called amines that may be unusable by the body, or even harmful. This is why you should avoid charring or overcooking meat. The proteins and peptides in my Collagen Protein are quite stable at moderately high temps, so adding it to a hot cup of tea or coffee, or baking it at low temps (below 300 degrees) will not denature it too much.How does Dr. Myers¡¯ Collagen Protein differ from her Paleo Protein?My Paleo Protein is a pure protein made from hydrolyzed collagen that comes from grass-fed, pasture grazing cows. It is a diverse combination of essential and nonessential amino acids, as well as branched-chain amino acids. Protein is essential for muscle and tissue repair, enzyme formation, and much much more. Conversely, my Collagen Protein is a very special type of protein sourced from the hides of grass-fed, pasture roaming cows raised with care in the US. Collagen Protein is a special blend of primarily four amino acids that are actually quite lacking in the standard western diet. These amino acids support your own body¡¯s ability to synthesize collagen, which is your body¡¯s primary structural protein. Collagen is essential for a healthy gut lining, strong hair, skin, and nails, connective tissue, and much much more. My team and I are often asked which type of protein is best, and because they vary so widely in their benefits, the answer is almost always, ¡°Both!¡±.?How does Dr. Myers¡¯ Collagen Protein differ from Spectrum 5 Collagen?, and can I take both together?Short answer: YES! You can absolutely take both (I do every day!). Spectrum 5 Collagen? delivers 8 g of 5 types of collagen from 4 real food sources in each serving: types I, II, III, V, and X, derived from wild-caught Canadian fish, free-range USA chickens, and grass-fed cows. My original Collagen Protein delivers a potent 11 g dose of types I & III collagen from 1 food source only ¡ª grass-fed cows. The robust amino acid profile of both support your own body¡¯s ability to synthesize Collagen, which is your body¡¯s primary structural protein.
