Ketogenic Collagen is formulated to exclude dairy, lactose, soy, wheat, gluten, and is keto- and paleo-friendly. Not only does it have a 70:20:10 ratio of fat, protein, and carbohydrates, it also contains predominantly grass-fed and pasture-raised collagen peptides types I and III to support skin, nails, bones, and joint health.* Features medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) for a convenient, multifaceted approach to a ketogenic lifestyle.
What is a ketogenic diet?
Low in carbohydrates and high in fat, a ketogenic diet prompts the body to burn fat for energy. With an approximate macronutrient ratio of 70% fat, 20% protein, and 10% carbohydrates, this diet is specifically designed to induce nutritional ketosis—a metabolic state in which the body shifts toward the use of fat as the primary source of fuel (Noakes TD et al. Br J Sports. 2016;51:133-139).*
Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in the body. It is predominantly composed of the amino acids glycine, proline, hydroxyproline, and arginine and is naturally found in animal tissues. It also makes up a large part of human skin, hair, nails, tendons, and cartilage and tends to break down with age (Rodriguez MIA et al. J Cosmet Dermatol. 2018;17:20-26). Supplementing with collagen can help support healthy skin as well as healthy nails, bones, and joints.*
