Viva Naturals Collagen Peptides Powder – Grass-Fed Hydrolyzed Bovine, Type I & III – 19 g Protein, Unflavored, Easy Dissolving – Joint, Skin, Hair & Nail Support – Paleo, Keto, Non-GMO – 1lb

Excellent collagen peptide powder
I really like this product. There is no noticeable aroma. The product dissolves quickly and completely. It is flavorless and does not affect the taste or texture of whatever it is mixed into. I didn’t experience any stomach or digestion issues.

Give it 3 months and you’ll see a big difference!
I’m on month 5 of this collagen powder. I wanted to wait a few months before I left a review because I heard that the effects don’t start taking place for a couple months. This stuff is amazing. The price is fantastic compared to other brands that have less grams of collagen. A lot of people don’t realize you need at least 20g of collagen to be the most effective. I started out taking two scoopfuls for the 20grams. I probably only missed a few days out of several months while I was taking it. After month 3 I can noticed the changes in my hair, nails and skin. For my skin, it’s more even toned and seems to have plumped up my fine lines. I’m only 41 and don’t have a lot of wrinkles but it did help smooth out my skin. My hair didn’t get thicker but it got longer! My hair has never grown past my shoulders and not its past my armpit. This is the longest my hair has ever been! My nails aren’t thicker but they grew. I always have my nails painted so there is a lot of abuse to my nails and they just don’t grow but now my fingernails look fake. Before I only had to cut my toenails every 5 months but now I need to cut them once a month. Just be patient when starting out because it will take your body awhile to soak it all in. I don’t have any pain anywhere so I can’t atest to pain relief.The taste: I actually like it. It’s hard to explain but there’s really no taste. But that no-taste, tastes good lol. The taste is so mild that I don’t even have to mix it with anything. The glass in my picture is exactly how I drink it. (It looks kinda cloudy green in the pic for some reason but it’s actually a cloudy clearish white. I barely fill up the glass and dump in my two scoops. Use warm water so it’s dissolves well. I stir it for about 10 secs and it’s dissolved. I take it down in one drink. It’s not thick, chunky or gritty. It’s just smooth.I definitely, 100 percent, recommend this brand. I’ll be ordering pack number 6 in a month. It lasts me about a month. You will see a difference, just don’t give up and stick with it!

Love the product, hate the packaging lol
I gave it 5 stars, but warning: the bag it comes in absolutely sucks!! The zipper closure does not stay closed. It constantly opened just sitting on my counter not being touched, so I had to put the powder in a diff container to make sure nothing got in the bag or it didn’t spill out. The collagen powder is amazing though. It dissolves quickly, no taste, it works. I was dealing w/postpartum hair loss & bought this to add a little extra to the vitamins I take daily. I highly recommend trying this powder, just have a container ready to transfer into lol

Dissolves well but has a definite taste in tea
I have been using this collagen for almost 3 weeks, no changes so far that I can tell. However, I used Vital Proteins previously for 3 months and never noticed changes either. I am mainly trying it as a protein supplement now, as it dissolves in my morning tea unlike protein powder, and I need a lot more protein in menopause than I can get through food.This brand is dissolving great in my tea with milk and sugar, just adding a creamier texture, but it has that very beefy taste to me that is reported on some brands. My husband did not really notice, but he drinks strong coffee with flavored and sugar free creamer, so it is competing with more flavors there. Plus I have a very sensitive sense of taste and smell.I will try another brand but some of them are so expensive. It is not easy or cheap to be a middle aged woman!

Been putting this thing in a pre-workout protein shake. Been feeling kinda squeaky in my knees past few months climbing stairs etc, and it’s already feeling much better. Definitely feeling like I’ve got an edge in my workouts and runs as well. Mixes really well in shakes and water, no lumps. Skin feels tighter and fresher under my eyes compared to before. At this price, you can’t go wrong for the volume and quality.

The only thing I didn’t like was the seam around the lid. Normally I can pry up a piece of the plastic seam and peel it off all the way around, but upon prying, the plastic stabbed me under my thumbnail and then broke. I then had to remove the rest of the seam with a paring knife.The powder itself is odourless, tasteless, and a must-have. I’ve been using collagen peptides for about 5 weeks and at 52, I no longer have aches and pains post-menopause. I feel like I’m 32 again. Nails are stronger and shinier, skin is smoother, and my once-thinning hair is coming back stronger and thicker. This brand is just as good as the blue canister that costs $30 more. Highly recommend.
