Hello hello! If you are here than it’s very likely you’ve seen me on Insta Stories at some point drinking this bright pink drink I always call my Collagen Protein Drink right before I do a workout. -As a matter of fact, I am drinking one right now 😀 – I promised I would do a post on this drink because I was starting to get questions on which one it was. If you are anything like me than you may have researched collagen by now and the benefits it has on our health. For the longest time I felt like my health & daily routine was just missing something. I feel like as I’ve gotten older the more I’ve noticed my body kind of lacking something. Once I started some research I quickly felt like Collagen was that missing link for me. Specifically to help with gut issues I tend to have, joints, hair and all around skin health. I started trying different ones. The first one I tried is actually by the same brand I am going to introduce to you today, but since this was 3 years ago and I was new to powder forms of collagen and hadn’t heard of flavored ones yet I was literally choking down plain collagen with water. Y’all. . . I do NOT recommend this. It’s gross.
I then eventually started seeing flavored ones on the market and in individual packets none the less! I was hearing others talk about them too but every single one that I tried ended up tasting horrible even with the flavoring and I just had to choke it down because I had spent so much money on it. Granted, they probably would have worked if I had the time to make smoothies everyday to mix them with but that just isn’t reality for me. (Aint nobody got time for that!) Also, I would hear a lot of people mention mixing theirs with coffee but I would tend to buy collagen that was flavored (because I knew without flavor it would taste disgusting) and none of the flavors sounded appetizing mixed in my coffee lol Basically I needed one that I can just mix with ice water fast and easy on the go.
SO when I decided I wanted to try out a new kind and flavor of collagen I made sure to read the reviews and see what other people had to say. I ended up back with the same brand I had tried from the beginning before they had flavors, which is a Dr. Axe Fomula and I went with the Strawberry Lemonade flavor. I was anxious and nervous to try it because it only came in a canister with approx. 45 servings and costs $50! But, I knew if it tasted good than it would totally be worth it for me! Once the package was delivered I tried it right away and was SO HAPPY with how it tasted! There was no gross after taste either. It’s clear that this is a favorite among MANY because it sells out Quickly. If you’re curious about trying collagen for the first time don’t make the mistake I did by wasting money on the ones that taste terrible, or if you’ve already been there and ready to try one that tastes good try the Strawberry Lemonade Multi Collagen Protein from Dr. Axe. BUT WAIT!!! I have a link for you to ENJOY $10 OFF your purchase from the Dr. Axe official website!! YAY!! If it is out of stock on the official site and you’d rather purchase now rather than wait for it to be restocked then I also found it here for you!
I hope you are just as relieved as I was to find a Collagen Protein that appeals to the taste buds!
