The collagen market is experiencing a significant transformation as new products continue to emerge.
From powders to gummies, lollipops, and beyond, collagen supplements are now available in a multitude of forms.
Amidst this variety, Dietitian at Innermost Angelica Fardella tells us why collagen powder remains her preferred choice for maximising health benefits, thanks to its purity, versatility, and efficacy – here’s why:
Purity and Concentration
When it comes to purity and concentration, collagen powder outshines other forms of collagen supplements.
Collagen powders such as The Glow Booster typically contain a high concentration of hydrolysed collagen peptides, ensuring that you receive a potent dose of this skin-perfecting protein with each serving.
Unlike gummies or lollipops, which often include added sugars, artificial flavours, and fillers, collagen powder is usually free from unnecessary additives – however, it’s always important to check the ingredients to ensure you’re choosing the very highest quality formulation.
This purity means that the body can more efficiently absorb and utilise the collagen peptides, leading to more effective results in supporting skin elasticity, joint health, and overall vitality.
By opting for collagen powder, you can be confident that you are getting the most concentrated and pure form of collagen available, maximising the health benefits without the extra calories or unwanted ingredients.
Versatility and Ease of Use
Collagen powder excels in versatility and ease of use compared to other forms of collagen supplements.
Collagen powders such as The Glow Booster – an unflavoured formula – can be seamlessly integrated into a wide range of foods and drinks without significantly altering their taste or texture.
Whether mixed into fresh juices and smoothies, stirred into coffee, blended into soups or baked into goods or even mixed into water on its own, collagen powder provides a flexible and convenient way to be integrated into your diet.
The same can’t be said for pills, gummies or lollipops, which are limited to being consumed as they are.
Sugar and Caloric Content
Collagen gummies and lollipops often contain significant amounts of added sugars and artificial sweeteners to enhance their taste, whereas collagen powder is typically free from these unnecessary additives.
By choosing a collagen powder such as The Glow Booster, its purity allows users to incorporate collagen into their diet without compromising their overall nutritional goals or health.
Absorption and Bioavailability
Collagen powder boasts superior bioavailability compared to other forms of collagen supplements, meaning it is more efficiently absorbed and utilised by the body.
Typically hydrolysed into smaller peptides, collagen powder such as The Glow Booster is designed to be easily digested, allowing these peptides to quickly enter the bloodstream and deliver benefits where they are needed most, such as in the skin, joints, and connective tissues.
In contrast, collagen gummies and lollipops often contain added sugars and fillers that can slow down digestion and absorption, reducing the overall effectiveness along with other possible negative effects such as blood sugar spikes.
By choosing collagen powder, we can ensure that we are getting a form of collagen that maximises absorption, leading to more noticeable and quicker results in improving skin elasticity, reducing joint pain, and supporting overall tissue repair and health.
