What is Pure Collagen?
Pure Collagen is exactly what it says it is: nothing more, nothing less. It’s protein made entirely from collagen - type I + traces of type III collagen, to be precise. You won’t find any additives, preservatives or other unnatural substances in Pure Collagen.
What does it taste like?
It’s completely flavourless! Collagen protein blends quickly and smoothly, without those annoying clumps you can find in other types of powder. You can also add it to hot OR cold drinks and food, making it a perfect protein boost to smoothies, soups or… well, anything you can think of.
Where does the collagen come from?
The collagen used in our protein is 100% Hydrolyzed Collagen powder, sourced purely from pasture-raised cows in Argentina which are certified hormone, anabolic steroid and synthetic drug free.
How much do I need?
You don’t need a bucketload of Pure Collagen to enjoy the benefits. A single serving (two scoops) contains 20 grams of all-natural collagen protein.

What is Collagen
Fun Fact: collagen is the most abundant protein in your body! It actually makes up about 30% of the total protein in the body, and you most commonly find it in bones, muscles, skin and tendons, though it’s also in hair and nails too. It’s kind of a “glue” that holds the body together, providing the strength and structure it needs to function. Let’s put it like this: without collagen, you'd pretty much fall apart!
As we age, the body slows down and produces less collagen. Throw in lifestyle factors like stress, poor diet, gut health imbalances and strenuous exercise, and you’ve got a recipe for even less collagen production! And there are plenty of signs that show this is starting to happen:
- Skin starts to get thinner
- Wrinkles form
- Muscles shrink
- Joint cartilage weakens, leading to joint pain
- Bone density decreases
While both men and women suffer from collagen reduction as they age, women are especially vulnerable to it. Reduction often accelerates after you experience menopause, making the symptoms show more quickly.
Not All Protein Powders Are Equal
When you think of protein powders, you probably think of bulging muscles or pumping iron.
Pure Collagen is not about that at all!
Collagen is a fundamental part of any person’s body, and taking it in can prove to be a cornerstone of ANYONE’S health, regardless of whether they work out or not.
- Protein powders alone (especially Pure Collagen) will NOT “bulk” you up
Consuming protein powder isn’t going to turn you into a colossus. Bodybuilders eat truckloads of other food to develop their frames, and protein powders are only a small part of that equation. Many people of all shapes and sizes use protein powder to support exercise performance, recovery and life in general, which is what Pure Collagen is perfect for.
Collagen In, Whey To Go
One of the most common questions we get asked is “why would I use collagen protein over whey?”.
It’s a great question!
One of the biggest differences between collagen and whey proteins is in the amino acids. Collagen’s rich in glycine, an anti-inflammatory, body-restoring amino acid that produces glutathione - the body's most powerful antioxidant. It’s the perfect restorative after you’ve hit the gym, pavement or any other serious exercise.
When it comes to whey proteins, they’re often highly processed and jammed full of additives. This leaves a lot of the nutritional value behind and makes it hard for your body to absorb the protein. But with collagen, the glycine kickstarts your stomach’s acid production and lets you digest it better to get a bigger, whole-body benefit.
