The deceptive labelling of phosphate food additives by food processing companies, including some collagen powder brands, poses a significant challenge to consumers striving for healthier dietary choices. The use of inconsistent terminology, vague descriptions, and strategic placement within ingredient lists contributes to a lack of awareness about the potential health risks associated with these additives.

Let’s face it…. choosing the right collagen is confusing. Collagen is often referred to as the "glue" that holds our bodies together. But should I take Type I, or maybe Type II, or then again someone told me I should take Type III. Is it marine collagen I should take or maybe bovine? HELP! Well here's the answers.

Does eating collagen produce more collagen in the skin?

New evidence has recently emerged adding even more weight to the fact that not all collagen powders are equal. Basically, there are two ways to produce Hydrolyzed Collagen. One is good, the other bad. Pick the brand that uses the bad way and you are simply getting a less effective product. This study reveals more.
