Hydrolyzed collagen, known for its potential to support joint health, skin elasticity, and overall vitality, has become a staple in the wellness industry. Yet, the health contradiction arises when we delve deeper into the ingredient list of some of these brand's products, only to discover the presence of dietary emulsifiers and other nasty additives. A recent study has shed light on how common food additives and emulsifiers disrupt the harmony of the gut microbiota, leading to a cascade of detrimental effects.

URGENT HEALTH WARNING –  An artificial sweetener used in many packaged foods, including some Australian collagen brands, has been linked to blood clotting, stroke, heart attack and death, according to a new study.

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.

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.
