Purely OptimalMulti Collagen Powder for Women - 5 Types Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides with Biotin & Hyaluronic Acid for Hair, Skin, Nails, Bones & Joints - Unflavored, Easy Mixing, 42 Servings

When my doctor suggested that I start taking collagen powder I thought "Oh no! Another gritty thing that is supposed to be tasteless that will be a total pain to take." I had been whining to him about my aching joints, my thinning hair and my dry skin. We are on good enough terms that I told him what I was thinking. He said that no, it wasn't like that, and that in fact he takes a scoop every morning in his own coffee. He suggested this brand because it has the additional biotin and hyaluronic acid , so it is the only one I have ever tried.I am now putting a scoop in my first cup of coffee of the day, and amazingly, it dissolves instantly. And, in the intensely flavored dark roast that I use, it really is tasteless. I cannot tell that I have added anything and that is exactly what I wanted. So from the point of view of what is the "ick factor", the answer is none.Now, how well does it work. I deliberately waited to write this review until I had been taking it for a month so I would have a better basis for judging its efficacy. After I was diagnosed with Diabetes II, my osteoarthritis started getting worse, my hair was thinning rapidly, my skin was very dry, I was showing signs of inflammation. I felt like I had aged 5 years in less than two. Since I started this collagen in my morning cup of coffee routine just a month ago, I am already seeing signs of some improvement. I see a lot of new hairs on my scalp just peeking out and my skin, although still very dry, isn't flaking so much.I was cleaning the other day, and realized that I wasn't having as much problem with my knees when trying to squat to clean in low places. When I thought about it, I was also not as stiff in the mornings as I was before I started this regimen. Although I was very sceptical I guess my doctor was right, I really needed this supplement. He warned me that it could be several months before I noticed an improvement, so I am gratified to be seeing signs of improvement after only a month. So, right now, I am giving this 5 stars, since unlike most supplements it is really doing some good. If I have something to add when I reorder, I will update this review. I think that for the relatively modest price it certainly is worth trying. I am now hoping that I will see bigger benefits once I have been taking it longer, but it is already definitely worth it.

Tastes great and mixes well with my coffee, I wish it had more hyaluronic acid per serving.. will be looking at less expensive options with more of what I am looking for.

The taste was good and it did't clump up when I shaked it .have osteoporosis so hope I hope this helps my bone density.

I have noticed a huge difference with hair and nail growth as well as improvement with joint pain!

The power dissolves quickly in hot drinks, not in room temperature drinks. It add a little taste to my English breakfast tea, but not too bad. I haven’t seen any improvement in nails & hair yet, after 2 weeks. I’ll see after a month.

Been drinking this in my coffee now for over 2 years. It took awhile but my hair has grown thicker, especially in the front where it was starting to recede. My nails are stronger and my joints feel pretty good. I am exceptionally happy with the results!

Blends well in my coffee, no taste at all, is good for my health
