Great Lakes hydrolyzed collagen protein powder supplement is a unique combination of 20 amino acids that support joint and connective tissue health. It is for general use, athletes, and people who have anti-aging health concerns. Collagen offers numerous benefits not only for joints, but also for bones, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, skin, hair, and nails. It combats aging issues like cartilage damage and collagen loss, and it aids the body’s natural ability to heal and repair. Hydrolyzed Collagen also functions to help regulate a large number of the body’s metabolic pathways. Great Lakes Gelatin Collagen Hydrolysate has been created under strict sanitary conditions that meet specifications outlined by the U.S. Pharmacopeia, which is regulated by National Formulary. The gelatin is tested for gel strength, viscosity, pH, and moisture—and is ready to incorporate into any number of recipes for an extra boost of collagen.
Product Features
- When used properly with a balanced and sensible diet, Great Lakes Gelatin’s Collagen Hydrolysate can aid in replenishing the collagen our bodies need to stay young.
- SKIN AND HAIR – As we age, our bodies’ collagen production declines. We notice less skin elasticity and more wrinkles. When we increase collagen levels, we notice our skin looking firmer, with increased smoothness.
- JOINTS – When our natural collagen production begins to slow, our tendons and ligaments start moving with less ease, leading to stiffness and swollen joints. By increasing our collagen intake, we may experience less inflammation, and joints may feel less stiff and move around more easily. Adding Great Lakes Gelatin’s Collagen Hydrolysate may reduce joint pain and get you back to enjoying your life.
Toxic levels of lead I submitted this review to Amazon on 7/27, but apparently it was taken down without notifying me. I resubmit this now for those who wish to be informed about the lead in this product, absent the external links which Amazon will not allowThe agency for toxic health and disease registry (ATSDR) cites the following for drinking water: The EPA Lead and Copper Rule has set drinking water standards with two levels of protection [EPA 1991; EPA 2000b].Action levels for lead of 15 ppb and copper of 1.3 ppm in more than 10% of customer taps sampled. An action level is the level for enforcement.Great Lakes states that their product has: “1.5 ppm” (note that is parts per million as opposed to the parts per billion mentioned in the previous citation).As a billion is 1000 times greater than a million, if you convert to the EPA standard, which is 15 parts per “billion” for an “action level for water”, Great Lakes says their product has 1.5 parts of…
I had no idea it would change my hair color! I ordered this on a whim because I’ve been dealing with gluten intolerance and was suspicious of leaky gut. I also thought the benefits of better skin, nails and hair would be great. I’ve been going grey since my twenties and blamed it on genetics. About six months ago I decided to embrace the grey and cut my hair short. I admit it’s been a shock to me and other people. The first picture here is prior to taking the gelatin. The second is today after two months. My hair has BLACK steaks in it again and the rest has gotten darker and thicker. I first noticed it about a month ago and it’s changing daily. I had NO idea this was even possible. I don’t know if it will continue to darken to what it was when I was a child but it’s pretty cool regardless. I will post future pictures of it continues to get darker. Also my skin and nails have improved dramatically.5/23/17. The third picture is about seven months into the gelatin. It’s hard to tell in this photo but my hair is…
Miracle anti aging + serious drop in joint pain! I bought this to use with my bullet coffee and with muscle repair as I’m training for a marathon. Then I noticed my face was looking AMAZING! What?? All the money I pour in to face creams never did as much as this product. I’m 60 and my face has almost zero lines. Around my mouth and chin my skin has regained elasticity and firmed up. Wowza! I’m bnbonly taking 2tbs in my coffee…that half the recommended dose. Will be adding it to my bedtime tea.My back and joint pain have decreased so much, most days I dont need any pain meds..not even am. After my coffee my back pain stiffness just melts away.So many reasons I’m a fan for life!!(Fibromyalgia, degenerative disc disease, stroke survivor + backpacker, runner, mom of 2 young boys)
