Hair, Skin + Nails • Joint Support • Immune Health
COLLAGEN is a daily unflavored powder designed to strengthen your connective tissues from the inside out. With a clinical dose of Type I & III hydrolyzed bovine collagen and added eggshell membrane for joint and skin support, this formula helps improve elasticity, recovery, and structural integrity. Vitamin C supports collagen synthesis, while trace minerals and immune-support compounds round out the formula.
Key Benefits:
Promotes healthy hair, skin, and nail growth
Supports joint structure, mobility, and resilience
Enhances collagen production with added Vitamin C
Unflavored and versatile—easy to mix with any shake or beverage
Hydrolyzed Bovine Collagen - 10,000 mg
A highly bioavailable collagen peptide derived from bovine hide, rich in Type I and III collagen.
- Promotes joint health by improving cartilage integrity and reducing stiffness
- Supports skin elasticity, hydration, and wrinkle reduction
- Enhances connective tissue strength in tendons, ligaments, and fascia
- Aids recovery from physical activity by reducing joint discomfort
- Stimulates fibroblast activity and collagen biosynthesis
Synergy: Combines effectively with Vitamin C to boost collagen cross-linking and repair; works with Eggshell Membrane Collagen to deliver a broader collagen type spectrum.

Eggshell Membrane Collagen - 500 mg
A naturally occurring matrix from the inner membrane of eggshells, providing Type I, II, III, V, and X collagen along with glucosamine sulfate, chondroitin, and hyaluronic acid.
- Improves joint mobility and reduces stiffness and pain
- Contains natural glycosaminoglycans to support cartilage and synovial fluid
- Enhances skin texture and firmness through diverse collagen types
- Supports tendon and ligament elasticity
- Promotes faster recovery from joint strain and overuse
Synergy: Complements Hydrolyzed Bovine Collagen by covering additional collagen types (II, V, X) and naturally supplying joint-centric cofactors like glucosamine, chondroitin, and hyaluronic acid. Boosts overall matrix diversity.

Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid) – 250mg
A water-soluble antioxidant essential for collagen synthesis and immune support.
- Required cofactor for collagen cross-linking and proline hydroxylation
- Enhances skin structure and elasticity by stabilizing collagen fibrils
- Reduces oxidative damage in connective tissues
- Supports immune and cellular defense systems
- May reduce post-exercise inflammation in joints
Synergy: Essential for activating Hydrolyzed Bovine Collagen synthesis pathways and stabilizing matrix integrity in conjunction with Eggshell Membrane Collagen.

Synergy Overview
Joint & Connective Tissue Integrity: Hydrolyzed Bovine Collagen and Eggshell Membrane Collagen provide a full spectrum of collagen types (I, II, III, V, X) to support cartilage, tendons, ligaments, and joint capsules. Eggshell-derived glucosamine and chondroitin enhance cushioning, mobility, and overall joint resilience.
Collagen Synthesis & Structural Support: Vitamin C acts as a required cofactor for collagen production, enhancing cross-linking and fibroblast activity. It works with bovine and eggshell collagen to stabilize and rebuild the body’s structural matrix.
Recovery & Anti-Inflammatory Support: Eggshell-derived hyaluronic acid, glucosamine, and chondroitin help reduce joint friction and support post-activity recovery. Vitamin C further protects connective tissue from oxidative stress and inflammation.
FAQ
Q: What are the biggest changes in the new version?
A: We removed chicken bone broth protein to improve taste, solubility, and ingredient efficiency. The new version delivers higher-dose bovine collagen, maintains eggshell membrane collagen, and keeps the effective vitamin C dose — all with a cleaner texture and better mixability.
Q: Why was bone broth protein removed?
A:
- It was redundant in collagen types already provided by the other ingredients
- It had a negative impact on taste and mouthfeel
- It mixed poorly, often clumping or adding grit
- Users overwhelmingly preferred the smoother experience without it
By removing it, we increased the main hydrolyzed bovine collagen dose and kept the full-spectrum joint/tendon support intact through eggshell collagen.
Q: What stayed the same from the old to the new version?
A:
- 10g total protein per scoop
- 250mg Vitamin C (essential for collagen synthesis)
- 500mg Eggshell Membrane Collagen (providing types I, V, and X, plus glucosamine/chondroitin/hyaluronic acid)
- 30 servings per container
The core structural and recovery support benefits remain unchanged.
Q: What was improved?
A:
- Hydrolyzed Bovine Collagen increased from 9,000mg to10,000mg
- Sodium reduced (110mg → 30mg)
- No more clumping, improved solubility and neutral flavor
- Simplified ingredient panel for easier stacking with other powders
Q: Does the new version still support skin, joints, and recovery?
A: The new formula provides types I, III, V, and X collagen, along with hyaluronic acid precursors, glucosamine, and chondroitin, this formula continues to:
- Promote joint, tendon, and ligament health
- - Support skin hydration and elasticity
- Improve connective tissue repair and recovery
Q: What is the best way to use this?
A:
- Consume 1 scoop (10.9g) 1-2 times daily, as needed
- Timing: Anytime daily, with or without food
- Pro Tip: Mix with your favorite pre-workout like ALPHAGEN or VOLUGEN to enhance joint recovery during training
- Mixing Tips: Pairs well with water, coffee, smoothies, or shakes
- Stacks With: ADAPTOGEN, ALPHAGEN, VOLUGEN, NUTRIGEN, or PROTEGEN
- Cycle?: No cycling needed, safe for long-term use
Q: Who is this product for?
A: Anyone looking to support joints, skin, and tissue repair
- Athletes, lifters, or aging populations wanting connective resilience
- Users who want cleaner taste and solubility from their collagen
- Those stacking with other recovery or hormone support products
