collagen peptides versus collagen protein and
Gelatin, I'm going to break it down for you

Collagen is the body's most important building block. It makes up approximately
30% of the proteins in our bodies collagen is the key structural component that ensures the elasticity
cohesion and regeneration of all our connecting tissues
including our skin tendons ligaments cartilage and bones, basically
Collagen is strong and flexible and the glue that holds everything together in our body it
strengthens various body structures also the integrity of our skin to continue to give us that
youthful look with age our body produces less and less collagen and the first signs of aging
start to occur from around the age of 30 and
accelerating on into our 40s loss of collagen affects our connective tissue and
The resilience of our skin collagen is so beneficial for the skin bones
joints the muscles the hair the nails and it can help fight the natural process of aging
So what are collagen peptides?
Collagen peptides are small
bioactive peptides obtained by
enzymatically
hydrolyzing collagen
In other words the breaking down of the molecular bonds between the individual
strands of the peptides
hydrolysis reduces collagen protein
fibrils into smaller peptides
collagen peptides may also be referred to as
Hydrolyzed collagen these are much more easily
Digestible. So what are the differences between
Collagen peptides and collagen gelatin these gelatin is obtained by partial
Hydrolysis of the collagen gelatin will only dissolve in hot water and will jellify when it is cooled
This is the same gelatin
From bone broth and the same gelatin that as kids we grew up with in jello and because of these jelly
Properties it's often used in culinary
Applications for things like jellies and gummies and sauces and thickeners
It's also used in pharmacology as the filler for capsules when gelatin is
hydrolyzed even further it is broken down into individual strands of protein and
small peptides of amino acids
Collagen peptides are soluble in cold water
They are highly digestible and ready to be absorbed by our bodies
There have been a lot of studies on collagen collagen peptides and collagen protein and the studies are showing that 90%
Of the peptides we consume are
Digested and absorbed within a few hours. That's great for us because rapid absorption
ensures an effective delivery of the essential peptides and amino
Acids to the locations in our body that we want to get them to collagen peptides act as building blocks
renewing bodily tissues
So basically both have really great benefits for us one is just hydrolyzed
Or than the other again both are excellent choices for improving
digestive issues
Skin hair nails and joints, but each are used in a different way
Collagen peptides are unflavored and is often both hot and cold
Liquids they dissolve much faster because they are broken down more
they are easy to use in a large variety of foods and drinks making them great option for
a busy lifestyle and those grab-and-go dream
Absolutely, no math. No fuss
Solution for getting the collagen that you're looking for the beef gelatin
Needs to be bloomed before you can consume it
If you remember as a child when you used to make jello
You added a cup of hot water first and then a cup of cold water
Well, it's a little bit different when it comes to doing collagen protein. So you're going to bloom the
Collagen in cold water first this process actually plumps up
The granules and makes them easier to stir into the food or dreams after blooming them
You'll need to add them to the hot liquid in order to fully dissolve them once chilled. It sets up jiggly
so you basically have
Jello, and you can add flavors to it
If you choose the advantage of the gelatin over the peptides is that it takes slightly longer to digest
that is a great benefit for people that have gut health issues and are trying to heal the
Intestinal lining the collagen protein the gelatin actually can get all the way to the small intestines
Coated and help to heal it from various
Digestive issues because of the benefit of it taking longer to digest and coating the small intestines
Allowing it to help heal
it's become beneficial and some of the gut healing diets out there like gap a
IP and
SCD you could google those for more information. It is unflavored as well
So it makes a great addition to any food or drink
I do want to show you how I like to use the collagen protein II
Leave your comments because it would love to hear your thoughts on this the brand of collagen protein that I use
Comes with the scoop and most of them do so I use one scoop and 1/3 a cup of water
and I just blend it for a minute with a fork and
You can see as you blend it it will start to plump up once you've got it blended
You can simply add it to your coffee. This is actually a coffee
Cappuccino and I have added the collagen protein to it now most days
I'll just drink just sip on this throughout the day
Because that has the added protein in it and this particular brand that I use has
17 grams in one and a half scoops now. I only use one scoop
So it's not going to have quite 17 grams, but it's probably going to have somewhere around
10 to 12 grams of protein in it
so I actually sip on my coffee throughout the morning and of course I do a keto coffee so I will have my
Coconut all in it as well for the MCT and it gives me that brain boost power throughout the day
For more info on the keto lifestyle doing her Facebook group or ordered the book
Stop bitching eat keto lose weight available on Amazon. I'll drop those links below in the video description
Along with the free downloadable. Yummy keto coffee recipe
I was starting to have some issues with gluten intolerance and
my digestive tract was just not healthy at all and not
and once I started using this
the gelatin and I actually started with
Collagen peptides and then I kind of switched over to the collagen protein because I wanted that
coating in the small intestine
I've noticed some amazing benefits over the last year that I have been on collagen peptides in collagen protein
I also like to do is I like to take this and I like to put it in
the refrigerator once - this makes a yummy
Jello, treat on a hot day and puts a new twist on iced coffee
Make sure you're doing all the right things to take care of you. I'm kidding
I look forward to seeing you all again soon now stay buddy positive so you can reap the rewards
