Hey Thomas. Just a suggestion, go back and look at your labels again. Vital Proteins is 2 scoops for 20g. Orgain is 1 scoop for 10g or 2 scoops for 20g. Exactly the same as each other, but Orgain includes Vit C and 50 super foods. Please let us know if you review this again if you consider the collegen equivalent in both products. Thank you!

[@Soldiergirl_4]

Hi THOMAS, I’m a medical scientist and an athlete. I find it amazing to watch and listen to you research labels, exactly the way I do. Most collagens provide 1 and 3 for hair skin and nails. However, Ancient Nutrition and Natures Plus provide additional types such as 1, 2,3,4,5 and 10. Moreover, facilitating joints, mobility, skin, tendons, bones, muscles, cell health and growth; just to name a few lol. I would love to have your take on this fact. Once I discovered you, I was hooked!! I have followed you for the last five years because you love Biochemistry and Keto as much as I do. Although, I have practiced fasting as well as intermittent fasting before it was “a thing”, since the 70’s…Finally, someone like you comes along and provides the science behind all things Keto, along with product knowledge. For this, I am beyond blessed. I am 64 years old with the Bio-chemistries of a 30-year-old. I don’t have health issues, by the grace of god and constantly mistaken for someone 44 or younger. Thank you for maintaining such a huge presence in the world! Your high standard of excellence and moral character speaks volumes. You are a man among men! I refer your name to people every single day. ❤️🙏❤️

[@Swearengen1980]

Yeah, I'm not seeing how he highly recommends most some of these. I'm no Dr or scientist, but every research I've done comes to the same conclusion: If you don't get the other collagen types, but go with just 1 and 3 as his recommendations do, you're shorting yourself. And at these prices, it's foolish to not get the most benefit you can.

I love Vital Proteins. A few years ago before I retired, I started having trouble with my joints and walking. I didn't have a car so that was a problem. My knees would just buckle without any warning and it scared me so much! I never actually fell but I never knew when it would happen. I was really weak in my knees and couldn't even take the stairs except like a child...one step at a time. I thought I was going to need one of those motorized wheel chairs, I really did. And yes, I was obese so that didn't help matters. After praying about it, I discovered Vital Proteins and started taking that. My skin, nails and hair just glowed...unbelievably so! But my knees...I tell you, they got so much better until now I am able to walk without any hesitation at all and take the stairs like a big girl, lol!!! I have no joint pain of any kind and I walk everywhere. I've also lost 106 lbs thanks to IF since then but I enjoyed all of these benefits before I lost the weight. It is really amazing how well it has worked and if I miss too many days, my knees will start to buckle again. Now I can enjoy my retirement without fear of falling, yippee!! It's expensive compared to other brands but my well-being is worth it. I love that stuff!!!

How many days did u take it before you started noticing results?

[@lifestylehacker2.0]

It depends what you want the collagen for. Marine (mainly type 1) is better than Bovine for skin/hair/nails. Liquid is more bioavailability than powder. And individual doses in glass bottles are better than plastic tubs as collagen is very susceptible to oxidation which reduces effectiveness.

@@charmagnemuzinich4443 My doc explained it to me this way, women’s hormone levels decline and then sharply drop off during menopause. As a result, this can throw off the balance of the body's chemistry, and potentially lead to issues with DHT levels. Some women experience increased sensitivity to testosterone and DHT during menopause, which exacerbates hair loss and thinning. By applying the estradiol to the scalp, it neutralizes the DHT. She applied for a patent for this but said Big Pharma beat her to it (I think).Hope this explanation helps you. I know how devastating it is to watch your hair fall out.

(I've also seen Polyunsaturated Fats & Monounsaturated Fats starting to be listed on some packaging, but that seems to mostly be on oils) "This item also says that it has 8 g of Carbs, with 2 g being Fiber, 5 g coming from Sugar and 4 of those coming from Sugar Alcohols -- for someone on a Keto Diet that means..."

I just started using this, I put it in my tea every morning, I started with coffee but I never finish all of my coffee lol

One big difference to protein powders is collagen has structural sulfur in addition to the bit contained in some amino acids

First BOOM! Love your channel! Thanks for being so dedicated to the health of others!

I've read Hydrolyzed collegen is the best collegen to take for muscle benefits. But most of those labels aren't clearly labeled as such. What are your thoughts on this?

[@HermettiFlux]

Longtime subscriber here. Strangely I've been trying to find out how sea moss which I understand is a great collagen source compares to some of these brands in which you discussed.

[@ginnyalmanza1646]

I would love to learn more about sea moss myself, good for thyroid health? Also skin, hair and nails?

[@HermettiFlux]

@@ginnyalmanza1646 the body needs 102 essential vitamins and minerals. Sea Moss has 92. Considering its high bioavaibility rate i would argue its more effective than most supplements. I'm not sure there is any other natural compound that packs such a nutritious punch.. I spend a lot of $ on supplements every month. I've been trying to figure out what not to buy anymore because I can get it from Sea Moss. I do also use collagen peptides but do I need to if I have a few table spoons of Sea moss every day?

I so much enjoy the new things I learn by watching this channel! Here's a question that's been on my mind for quite a while: Is a multi-vitamin part of your supplement stack and if so, what do you get from it that your other supplements don't provide?

[@DEATHWISHVQ]

I’m puzzled, why is “natural flavor cocoa/vanilla” not an automatic good go? I know he said “we don’t know what’s in there” someone help me better understand.

[@SakuraKatya94]

The Ancient nutrition unflavored one was the one I picked out after staring at the labels for 45 mins and having two employees ask, if I needed help. Glad, it is a good one and all that wasn't in vain.

[@kauigirl808]

Did he say that's the best one?

[@SakuraKatya94]

@@kauigirl808 I have not seen this vid in awhile, so I don't remember. However, I do remember him saying it was a good one to use and after using it for a while, I personally recommend it. It is easy to mix and I have added it to a lot of things and it doesn't affect the flavor very much.

[@charmagnemuzinich4443]

He never said one was better than all others but gave that one his approval. Not their flavored ones. He didn’t like the added “gums” or “natural flavors”. Good job! It’s very confusing. It’s a great video. 😊

My understanding is that you must take vitamin c when taking and collagen supplements

[@AliPi7]

Bowmar Nutrition Collagen Peptides is what I get. It’s a steal when on sale, and I stock up every time. Definitely far more affordable than Vital brand.

[@Mad-Bassist]

I just received a 40oz tub of Carlyle Multi Collagen. At first I saw 115 servings for $36, but now I see they're 10g servings. Your 20g recommendation makes it 57.5 servings, but at 63¢ per, it's still not a bad deal. They feature bovine, fish, chicken, and curiously "Eggshell Membrane Collagen" that provides type I, V, and X which I hadn't heard of before. It may be a minor benefit, but you know, "diversity." There is no Vitamin C, but I figure that's covered by the backlog of multivitamins I'm taking until they're gone.

[@MegaEdge777]

57 servings for $36 is very good! Most of mine is bought for about $1 per serving.

[@Mad-Bassist]

@@MegaEdge777 Yeah, you're totally right--thanks for pointing it out. I was looking at Amazon's price per ounce. 63¢ per serving is the right figure so it's edited now.

[@charmagnemuzinich4443]

Yeah, it is quite an education. I appreciate the video.

[@linneasimchah1621]

Really appreciated this video! We've been using the Ancient Nutrition collagens for 7 months with good results. Lately I've been having Brodo bone broth soup everyday though, so haven't felt the need to suppl w collagen powders. Recently also started Saladino's "hair skin nails" collagen suppl (trachea and scapula collagen).

[@Hippy2021]

Do you know the vital collagen brand is not hydrolyzed. Most brands are not hydrolyzed

You can get collagen protein in the bulk section of Srpouts and it's $17.99 / lb. Much cheaper.

I buy 1/4 grass fed & finished beef every year & get lots of bones. I’ve read that homemade bone broth is the best, that it absorbs better, is that correct?

[@ursuladozier3296]

Also adding a splash of Apple cider vinegar causes the bones to release even more nutrients

@@ursuladozier3296 Yup, cook it with carrots, onions, celery, garlic, salt, pepper, and ACV...pulls more of the collagen out of the bones.

[@undefinednull5749]

collagen is collagen, it is also broken down into amino acids and rearranged into whatever the body needs, be it type 1 or 2 or whatever else

[@elizbeer]

No, it doesn’t. There are 28 different types of collagen and there are specific cellular receptors for different collagens. In Germany they’ve developed a hydrolysis method to obtain specific short chains of amino acids and depending the type of collagen needed that’s the one you buy. They’ve made double blind, controlled, randomized studies in humans to demonstrate de bioavailability of these peptides. There are some webinars made by GELITA and the name of their supplement is VERISOL= Bioactive Collagen Peptides

[@JoseIbarra-ok8ub]

I will follow you. Ascorbic acid is not vitamin C. Your comments.

I buy raw hydrolyzed collagen. And not from your local grocery store.

Funny detail: I clicked on the video because I noticed the shelf tags on the shelf in the background of the thumbnail were from my workplace, that being natural grocers. Needless to say the video takes place in a sprouts.

[@pent148]

Thomas, you missed an important ingredient in the Ancient Nutrition brand. You totally missed the FIRST ingredient! Bovine collagen. You just skipped right over it and went right to the chicken. You should note this overlook on your video.

[@frankiesfairyboytwinkclub]

Grass fed collagen is very important. Feed lot = more glyphosate. Glyphosate is structurally very similar to glycine

[@SavoyPrimeable]

Agreed! I only know of one collagen brand that is also grass finished (aka no grains).
