Question 1

How does Collagen Protein taste?

Accepted Answer

Here at Bulk HQ we think our new Collagen Protein tastes great. Provided in a combination of vanilla and chocolate based flavours, there is sure to be a flavour to suit all palates. While the Chocolate will taste a lot like a whey shake, we do also provide Collagen Protein in raw/unflavoured, to cater for those that want maximum purity.

Question 2

What is Collagen Protein best for?

Accepted Answer

Collagen Protein is best used for the benefits it provides to tendons, ligaments, bones, skin and hair. It will also be useful to build muscle, but in most cases we would recommend it is a secondary protein for this purpose.

Question 3

Why did you include Vitamin C in Collagen Protein?

Accepted Answer

One major benefit of including Vitamin C in Collagen Protein is the support it can provide to joint health. It also helps to increase the body’s natural levels of Hyaluronic acid (HA) as Vitamin C is crucial for the synthesis of HA. Hyaluronic acid can be found in all tissue, linings, organs, vessels and cavities in our body and is key to maintaining joint health and lubrication of joints. *Vitamin C only included in flavoured varieties.

Question 4

How is Bulk Nutrients' Collagen Protein packaged?

Accepted Answer

Collagen Protein is packaged in 750g resealable pouches.

Question 5

Is the packaging for this product recyclable?

Accepted Answer

In theory yes, but not in all council areas right now. The REDcycle program has been discontinued, and the industry is working together to find a solution to continue recycling soft plastics. For now, we recommend checking with your local council, but most require you to put the packaging in your regular landfill bin. The included scoop can be recycled as hard plastic in your local council pickup. For more information about what Bulk is doing to improve sustainability,  check this article .

Question 6

What is Collagen Protein Powder?

Accepted Answer

Collagen Protein powder is a protein source made from hydrolysed collagen peptides, which makes up bones, cartilage and hair. Collagen is high in the amino acids Glycine, Proline and Arginine. When it is “hydrolysed”, it is broken down further into smaller protein chains called “peptides”. Therefore the terms “hydrolysed protein” and “collagen peptides” are interchangeable.

Question 7

Is Collagen Protein suitable for vegans and vegetarians?

Accepted Answer

No, Collagen Protein is not suitable for vegans and vegetarians. Collagen Protein comes from animals, porcine and bovine sources are the most common. While there are some attempts to manufacture plant-based collagens, all hydrolysed collagens currently available are from animal sources.

Question 8

What is Collagen Protein Powder good for?

Accepted Answer

Collagen Protein Powder contains collagen (from hydrolysed collagen peptides) which serves as the building blocks for bones, joints, cartilage and hair. It is commonly used for these purposes. There is evidence supporting its positive effects on skin elasticity and enhancing skin texture as well as its effect on the skeletal system. There is also some emerging evidence about collagen's positive effect on the stomach lining, where it is reported to assist “rebuilding” efforts.

Question 9

Is Collagen Protein good for building muscle?

Accepted Answer

Collagen can be used as a protein source to enhance recovery and build muscle, however it is not the most suitable protein source for this. It is far lower in BCAAs and EAAs than dairy proteins and proteins found in the meat (muscle) of animals. In fact, plant proteins have a better amino acid spectrum for muscle growth than collagen does. The key amino acids (BCAAs and EAAs) are the amino acids best supported by research to build muscle.

Question 10

What is a typical dose of Hydrolysed Collagen?

Accepted Answer

A dose of Hydrolysed Collagen can vary depending on the purpose. Studies on skin have used doses as small as 2.5 to 5 grams Studies on reduction of joint pain have used around 10 gram daily Studies on recovery have used doses of around 20g The effects with collagen, like most protein sources are likely to be dose dependent.

Question 11

How much fat does Collagen Protein contain?

Accepted Answer

In raw form, hydrolysed collagen contains no fat. Once blended with flavouring and cocoa there may be very small amounts of fat present.

Question 12

How much sugar does Hydrolysed Collagen have in it?

Accepted Answer

Hydrolysed Collagen contains zero sugar in raw form, however once mixed with flavouring a small amount of sugar and carbohydrates will usually be present.
