Great Lakes Wellness Collagen Peptides Powder for Skin, Hair, Nails, Joints & Digestion - Unflavored - Quick Dissolve Hydrolyzed, Non-GMO, Keto, Kosher - 16 oz - 4 Pack

I am fairly young, at 29 yrs., and have had issues with stiff joints ever since childhood such as cracking wrists, stiff fingers and locking ankles when jumping or going down stairs. I have been taking this supplement twice a day for about a month and am feeling a TREMENDOUS difference in my joints. But that's not it, my skin is loving it too! I have always had great skin, but this is making it even better, it already feels firmer and am noticing the fine lines (crows feet) by my eyes are dissapearing! Also, I have been experiencing the best quality sleep I've ever had, my baby sleeps better too! If these things aren't good enough already, I am seeing my waist slim as well. It's really insane the changes I've seen. I had a baby 4 months ago and got a few small stretch marks that are hardly noticeable now also. I have not otherwise changed anything about my routine, so I know it's this stuff! (side note: the cracks and stiffness were getting a lot worse with breastfeeding over the past 4 months.) My hair and nails are much stronger, shinier and healthier too.I believe that how I am taking this is making all of the difference. In the a.m., I mix a heaping Tbsp with boiling water, organic lemon slices and a half Tbsp organic, raw locally sourced honey. In the evening, I drink 1 heaping Tbsp with warmed organic, raw, unpasteurized locally sourced milk that is grass-fed start to finish. I've always heard that warm raw milk can make you sleep better because of the enzymes, but with this, it makes all the difference.The lemon water (first thing in the am) helps your body to detox in a gentle way. The milk combo at night gives your body protein to build lean muscle and keep in mind, your body does its recovering while you sleep as well, so you're giving yourself a shot of rich vitamins, minerals and good fats necessary to heal. Also, mid-day, I take a Trace Minerals power pak, love these, I get an extra dose of the high quality minerals I need. I am breast feeding and I find I need an extra boost throughout the day.I do not notice any flavor, but my boyfriend does - he says it's totally not unbearable but can taste a slight 'beefy' note. Sometimes when I'm in a rush I will add it to my morning coffee. I only drink one 8oz cup of good quality coffee as caffeine will dry your bones out, but I believe coffee has some good benefits also in moderation, like helping to keep my sanity for one hahhah.One importank thing to note, I tried to increase my dosage to about two tbsp in one serving and got a headache, and I rarely ever get those so I can easily attribute that to the extra dosage. Think I was getting obsessive because of the results I've seen lol.I literally can't say enough about this stuff. I do yoga and my boyfriend works a physically demanding construction job(9 yrs in construction) and we both are feeling a huge difference in the fluidity of our joints! Do I get to be a paid spokesperson yet?!

Great product!! Keeps my bones strong and skin texture on my legs has noticeably improved! Staying healthy in older age!

I've been using this very same product since 2010...This was the first and only collagen I was able to find on the market when I began requiring collagen for an illness I was experiencing, and so I'm very loyal to this particular brand, as it was a necessary upplement that helped in my healing...

I love this product. I have been taking it as directed for about two and a half months now. I have an auto immune disease where my joints ache and seasonal allergies are off the charts. I suspected that I had a leaky gut due to the different prescription meds I had to take in order to keep my condition under control. A leaky gut can wreak all kinds of havoc with the immune system as food particles escape the gut and enter the bloodstream. The particles then get attacked by the body's immune system which then gives us allergies, pain, swelling, etc..After reading reviews, I started taking the collagen to improve my arthritis pain. I haven't seen much improvement with that, maybe I haven't taken it long enough, but one thing I do notice is that my allergies are so much better. I have been on monthly allergy shots for years now and still have to take two AllegraD's per day. Since taking the collagen, I've dropped the AllegraD's and all my nose sprays. Also the shot reactions are a lot smaller then they used to be. My arms used to swell at the injection site and stay swollen for a couple of days. Now, hardly anything happens.Best of all, my dairy allergy seems to have abated quite a bit. If I ate 1/4 cup of cottage cheese my sinuses would immediately congest. Now there are no symptoms. Of course that doesn't mean I'm going to go off and eat an entire hunk of Brie, even though I'd like to, but it's nice to know I can eat small amounts of dairy now with no repercussions.At any rate I am very pleased with the product. For those that are interested, my blood and urine is tested every 3 months because of my condition. I do think the collagen did change some of my blood values but not adversely. So if you get your blood tested be sure and have a look see, to see if you have any changes that may or may not be good. I have since gotten my husband and sister started on it. I hope this product works well for everyone. I highly recommend it!

Our daughter, an R.N. takes this for previous volleyball and basketball aches and pains and recommended to us. We put two scoops in our coffee in the mornings and have noticed a huge difference in our daily aches and pains that come along with aging. I noticed a difference within a few days and my husband noticed a difference within about 8 to 10 days. The really nice thing about it is that it dissolves in the coffee without affecting the taste or texture. We ordered the 4 cans at once. We are on our second can and will try to cut down to one scoop daily to save money. A suggestion...if you want to drink it with a cold beverage...mix it with a about 1/4 cup of warm beverage first. It will dissolve better. Good luck and hope it helps you.
