My husband and I are trying to maintain a whole foods, plant based diet. To keep nutritionn balanced, we like to try lots of new products. I decided to try this one. I put 8oz water, a banana, some ice, and two scoops of this collagen powder into my mini blender. The flavor was fantastic when compared to Vega One and Peak Performance (in my opinion - brighter, less murky flavor). But when I was drinking it, it felt like there was something gritty in my shake. It tasted so good, I ignored it.<br /><br />But later, my husband got a glass of almond milk and stired the powder in with a mini whisk. While stirring, he found a large object in his glass.<br /><br />We decided to use a tea strainer to sift the remaining powder from the container to see what all was in there. Considering the powder is extremely finely ground, and easily airborne, we were pretty surprised at what came out. See the attached photos.<br /><br />I have no idea what these things are, and I'm half tempted to find a lab and get them tested. Maybe one is a shell from a nut. Maybe the sand-like stuff are minerals, or stone fragment from a grinding mill. Who knows. But I can't even guess what the large object is. I will say that if the sand stuff is minerals, they do fall to the bottom of the container, so they would not be evenly distributed between each scoop.

Great product! I was looking to switch to a plant based collagen, but had a hard time finding a product that offered the same benefits as the animal based formulas. This powder completely fits the bill, so glad I made the switch!

I bought this Collagen Builder because I love Plant Fusion and feel like it is a brand I can always trust. I have been using it daily for a few days now and like it so far. It's too soon to know how effective it is as supporting collagen building, but I can tell you that the unflavored version works just fine when mixed with my daily smoothie or green juice. I do not like the flavor alone, but then again, it's unflavored. It blends smoothly when shaken or in a blender and does not affect the taste or texture of the drinks it's added to. I will buy it again.

Amazing! I add it to my protein shakes and it doesn't alter taste at all. I was surprised at the difference I noticed in my skin.

I love these protein supplement. I try to stay off weigh and dairy formulas so this helped me alot with acne. Regular bowel movement, taste good enough for u to chug it without making an ugly or eww face right after. It does suppress my appetite

Tastes good. Very fine powder that mixes in well with liquid of choice. I’m a vegetarian so it’s difficult to find collagen products.
