Unflavoured. Available as a 56-serving jar, a box of 20 sticks, or a pouch of 50 sticks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sourcing is the part worth understanding. Most collagen on the market comes from bovine hide or porcine skin. withinUs uses \u003cstrong\u003efish scales exclusively\u003c\/strong\u003e — not skin, not bones. Scale collagen is predominantly Type I, the type that dominates skin, bone and connective tissue, and its peptides are smaller than bovine collagen's, which is the usual argument for better absorption.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnflavoured is the point of this one. There is no sweetener, no flavour, no gum and no colour, so the scoop is entirely what you are paying for and it dissolves into coffee, tea, soup or a smoothie without changing the taste. Most flavoured collagens carry additives that make up a meaningful share of the tub.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe label calls out \u003cstrong\u003e195mg of lysine\u003c\/strong\u003e per serving, and the licensed claim runs through it: lysine is an essential amino acid the body cannot make, and it is directly involved in collagen formation. That is the mechanism the claim rests on rather than the collagen peptides being reassembled wholesale, which is not how digestion works.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe three formats cost differently per serving. The 56-serving jar works out lowest; the sticks cost more but travel, portion themselves and do not need a scoop. The 50-stick pouch sits between the two.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ewithinUs is a Canadian company built around TruMarine collagen, sourced exclusively from the scales of wild-caught fish rather than from hides or bones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho withinUs TruMarine Collagen Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis suits anyone who wants collagen without additives, and particularly people adding it to coffee or cooking where a flavoured product would clash. It is the straightforward pick if you have found flavoured collagens too sweet.
