Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides - Grass-Fed
At Z Natural Foods, we combine tradition and science to craft highly nourishing products that support your health. Our Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides Powder is sourced from grass-fed bovine hides, providing a clean, versatile, and effective way to enhance your well-being.
What Is Collagen and Why Do You Need It?
Collagen is the body’s most abundant protein, essential for maintaining the structure and function of hair, skin, nails, cartilage, bones, blood vessels, and connective tissues. It makes up 35% of your body’s dry weight and is composed of 19 amino acids, including glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline—key players in maintaining a strong and healthy structural foundation.
As we age, natural collagen production declines, leading to weaker skin, joints, and tissues. Supplementing with collagen can support your body’s structural integrity, promoting strength, flexibility, and recovery.
What Makes Our Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides Special?
Our collagen is hydrolyzed, meaning it has been broken down into smaller protein chains called peptides for easy digestion and better absorption. This fully hydrolyzed form dissolves in both hot and cold liquids, making it incredibly versatile.
Hydrolyzed collagen offers:
Type I and III Collagen: Essential for skin elasticity, bone health, and connective tissue.
Enhanced Absorption: Supports effective utilization by the body.
Versatile Uses: Mix into smoothies, coffee, or recipes for soups, stews, and desserts.
Gelatin vs. Hydrolyzed Collagen
Gelatin is partially hydrolyzed collagen, making it less soluble and only usable in hot liquids. Hydrolyzed collagen, on the other hand, is fully broken down, offering greater versatility and easier absorption. While gelatin is excellent for thickening, hydrolyzed collagen is better suited for beverages, smoothies, and daily supplementation.
Backed by Research
Studies have shown that collagen peptides can support joint health, reduce pain from osteoarthritis, and promote skin elasticity and hydration. A clinical trial demonstrated significant improvements in joint pain and mobility among participants taking collagen peptides compared to a placebo.
How to Use
Mix 4.5 tablespoons (28g) with 12 oz of water, milk, or juice. Blend in smoothies, coffee, or use it in recipes for a protein-rich boost. For best results, take 1-2 servings daily, with one serving post-exercise.

Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides - Grass-Fed
At Z Natural Foods, we combine tradition and science to craft highly nourishing products that support your health. Our Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides Powder is sourced from grass-fed bovine hides, providing a clean, versatile, and effective way to enhance your well-being.
What Is Collagen and Why Do You Need It?
Collagen is the body’s most abundant protein, essential for maintaining the structure and function of hair, skin, nails, cartilage, bones, blood vessels, and connective tissues. It makes up 35% of your body’s dry weight and is composed of 19 amino acids, including glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline—key players in maintaining a strong and healthy structural foundation.
As we age, natural collagen production declines, leading to weaker skin, joints, and tissues. Supplementing with collagen can support your body’s structural integrity, promoting strength, flexibility, and recovery.
What Makes Our Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides Special?
Our collagen is hydrolyzed, meaning it has been broken down into smaller protein chains called peptides for easy digestion and better absorption. This fully hydrolyzed form dissolves in both hot and cold liquids, making it incredibly versatile.
Hydrolyzed collagen offers:
Type I and III Collagen: Essential for skin elasticity, bone health, and connective tissue.
Enhanced Absorption: Supports effective utilization by the body.
Versatile Uses: Mix into smoothies, coffee, or recipes for soups, stews, and desserts.
Gelatin vs. Hydrolyzed Collagen
Gelatin is partially hydrolyzed collagen, making it less soluble and only usable in hot liquids. Hydrolyzed collagen, on the other hand, is fully broken down, offering greater versatility and easier absorption. While gelatin is excellent for thickening, hydrolyzed collagen is better suited for beverages, smoothies, and daily supplementation.
Backed by Research
Studies have shown that collagen peptides can support joint health, reduce pain from osteoarthritis, and promote skin elasticity and hydration. A clinical trial demonstrated significant improvements in joint pain and mobility among participants taking collagen peptides compared to a placebo.
How to Use
Mix 4.5 tablespoons (28g) with 12 oz of water, milk, or juice. Blend in smoothies, coffee, or use it in recipes for a protein-rich boost. For best results, take 1-2 servings daily, with one serving post-exercise.
Why Choose Z Natural Foods?
High-Quality Ingredients: Made from grass-fed bovine hides for purity and nutrition.
Freshness Guaranteed: Packed in airtight, resealable foil pouches to maintain potency.

Finest Quality
Our quality control and purity standards are met by following a very strict chain of supply which
begins with the growers and ends with our product at your front door.
Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides - Grass-Fed
At Z Natural Foods, we combine tradition and science to craft highly nourishing products that support your health. Our Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides Powder is sourced from grass-fed bovine hides, providing a clean, versatile, and effective way to enhance your well-being.
What Is Collagen and Why Do You Need It?
Collagen is the body’s most abundant protein, essential for maintaining the structure and function of hair, skin, nails, cartilage, bones, blood vessels, and connective tissues. It makes up 35% of your body’s dry weight and is composed of 19 amino acids, including glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline—key players in maintaining a strong and healthy structural foundation.
As we age, natural collagen production declines, leading to weaker skin, joints, and tissues. Supplementing with collagen can support your body’s structural integrity, promoting strength, flexibility, and recovery.
What Makes Our Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides Special?
Our collagen is hydrolyzed, meaning it has been broken down into smaller protein chains called peptides for easy digestion and better absorption. This fully hydrolyzed form dissolves in both hot and cold liquids, making it incredibly versatile.
Hydrolyzed collagen offers:
Type I and III Collagen: Essential for skin elasticity, bone health, and connective tissue.
Enhanced Absorption: Supports effective utilization by the body.
Versatile Uses: Mix into smoothies, coffee, or recipes for soups, stews, and desserts.
Gelatin vs. Hydrolyzed Collagen
Gelatin is partially hydrolyzed collagen, making it less soluble and only usable in hot liquids. Hydrolyzed collagen, on the other hand, is fully broken down, offering greater versatility and easier absorption. While gelatin is excellent for thickening, hydrolyzed collagen is better suited for beverages, smoothies, and daily supplementation.
Backed by Research
Studies have shown that collagen peptides can support joint health, reduce pain from osteoarthritis, and promote skin elasticity and hydration. A clinical trial demonstrated significant improvements in joint pain and mobility among participants taking collagen peptides compared to a placebo.
How to Use
Mix 4.5 tablespoons (28g) with 12 oz of water, milk, or juice. Blend in smoothies, coffee, or use it in recipes for a protein-rich boost. For best results, take 1-2 servings daily, with one serving post-exercise.
Why Choose Z Natural Foods?
High-Quality Ingredients: Made from grass-fed bovine hides for purity and nutrition.
