I am glad someone said this out loud. I wholeheartedly agree that the stuff just tastes nasty and there is no way to mask it. I think this is just another wellness health fad with no clinical basis for benefits. I stick to the old fashioned tenets of taking a multi vitamin, using a good moisturizer and sun screen, eating a balanced diet and attempting to get enough sleep. That goes a long way to healthy skin.

Collagen powder is one of those things I always wondered if it actually worked or seemed like a scam. Thank you for this, I’m definitely more curious to try it now.

I've been mulling over collagen as well and am also a vegetarian. But it'd be for my hair, so not entirely sure it'll work?

I don't think there are strong studies to support its effects on hair yet, but I've heard hairstylists talk about clients using biotin and noticing a difference in their strands!

Apparently good for the hair, too! I've ordered it and like you,will not to think of the bovine aspect if possible.
