True Collagen

Description

Ancient + Brave True Collagen is a type I hydrolyzed bovine collagen designed to support daily foundational care. Sourced from EU herds and free from growth hormones and antibiotics, this unflavored powder blends easily into hot or cold beverages and meals without impacting taste or texture.

Collagen is a key structural protein found throughout the body, and this formula provides hydrolyzed peptides selected for their refined composition and low molecular weight (under 5000 Daltons). These peptides are known for supporting skin elasticity and overall structural integrity, while also contributing to the appearance of healthy hair and nails. The result is a smooth, easily dispersed powder that integrates seamlessly into everyday use.

HOW TO USE IT

Add 2 teaspoons to a hot or cold drink of your choice, up to twice daily. For best results, add the powder to liquid rather than pouring liquid over it. Warm liquids can help the powder dissolve more easily. Pour from a slight height to encourage even dispersion, then allow the powder to settle for about 30 seconds before stirring to help minimize clumping. For frothy drinks, allow additional time for the powder to fully incorporate.
