COLLAGEN POWDERS I highly recommend finding collagen powders that are from humanely raised , pastured sources . Two of my favorite brands are Vital Proteins and Great Lakes . Collagen powder is what is used to make foods like jello .
I have also been known to add it to my coffee and soups in the winter . Then there is collagen peptides , which dissolve in cold liquids . I like to add this powder to my green smoothies . The summers in Phoenix are way too hot for broth , so this form is a great option . I use 1 tbsp a day when I use these forms .
