Vitality GLOW Marine Collagen + Biotin, Hydrolyzed Fish Collagen Peptides with Vitamin C and Biotin, Three Ingredients, Unflavoured

Vitality GLOW Marine Collagen + Biotin Details

A three-ingredient marine collagen: hydrolyzed fish-skin collagen, vitamin C and biotin. Nothing else — no flavour, no sweetener, no colour. A 5.1g scoop, in 153g or 255g.

The short ingredient list is the point. Most flavoured collagens carry sweeteners, natural flavours, gums and colours that make up a meaningful share of the tub. Unflavoured means the scoop is almost entirely the thing you are paying for, and it dissolves into coffee, tea, soup or a smoothie without changing the taste.

Marine collagen comes from fish skin and is predominantly Type I, the type that dominates skin and bone. Its peptides are smaller than bovine collagen's, which is the usual argument for better absorption. Hydrolysis breaks the protein into fragments small enough to cross the gut wall.

Vitamin C is doing real work rather than sitting on the label. Your body cannot synthesise its own collagen without it — it is a required cofactor for the enzymes involved — so a collagen product without vitamin C is only supplying raw material.

The licensed joint claim requires at least five months of consistent use. The 255g tub is 50 servings, so plan on several tubs before judging it. Contains fish, so it is not vegan or vegetarian.

Vitality Products is a Canadian supplement company, and its formulas lean toward chelated and bisglycinate mineral forms rather than cheaper oxides and sulphates.

Who Vitality GLOW Marine Collagen + Biotin Is For

This suits anyone who wants collagen without additives, and particularly people who add it to coffee or cooking where a flavoured product would clash. It is the straightforward choice if you have found flavoured collagens too sweet.

Contains fish — unsuitable for a fish allergy, and not vegan or vegetarian. The biotin can interfere with laboratory immunoassays including thyroid and cardiac troponin tests, so tell your practitioner before blood work. Consult a practitioner before use if pregnant or breastfeeding. Joint pain that is severe, sudden, or comes with swelling, redness or fever needs medical assessment rather than a supplement.
