The product is intended for healthy adults.
Hydrolyzed bovine collagen
Not all collagen is absorbed equally. Partially hydrolyzed collagens—broken down into shorter collagen peptides that can be effectively absorbed—are considered the best. Prime Collagen uses bovine collagen from the renowned manufacturer Halavet®, which has hydrolyzed the raw material to achieve an average molecular weight of 2,000 Da. In addition to its optimal molecular structure, this collagen also boasts excellent solubility and a neutral taste, meaning that once dissolved, it has the flavor of only natural aromas, without any collagen aftertaste.
Collagen itself is a rich source of amino acids, but here the serving is enriched with 3,000 mg of L-glutamine, which is the most abundant of all free amino acids in the body
Vitamin C and Collagen Production
This vitamin is a very effective partner for collagen. One serving of Prime Collagen provides 200 mg of vitamin C, which is 250% of the Reference Intake. The source of vitamin C in the formula is rosehip extract standardized to 70% vitamin C.
Vitamin C supports normal collagen formation to ensure the proper functioning of the skin, cartilage, bones, gums, teeth, and blood vessels. It also helps protect cells from oxidative stress and helps reduce feelings of tiredness and fatigue.
HAPLEX® Sodium Hyaluronate
The hyaluronic acid contained in sodium hyaluronate is known for its very strong ability to bind water molecules. It is a very popular and beneficial companion to collagen in supplementation, and in this case, it also gives the dissolved drink an excellent, gel-like consistency, making daily supplementation much more appealing.
Prime Collagen uses premium high-molecular-weight hyaluronate from the HAPLEX® brand, with a molecular weight ranging from 0.80M to 1.30M Da
Astaxanthin from algae and silica from bamboo
Two ingredients from natural sources that are designed to effectively support collagen. Astaxanthin is an interesting carotenoid with a deep red color and promising properties. Bamboo shoots, on the other hand, are one of the richest sources of natural silica. In the raw material used in Prime Collagen, the silica content is as high as 75%
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How many servings are in a package?
30 servings of 15 g each, which is a one-month supply when taking one serving per day.
What kind of collagen is it?
Halavet® hydrolyzed bovine collagen with an average molecular weight of 2,000 Da. It is characterized by excellent bioavailability and solubility, as well as a neutral taste. Each serving contains 5,000 mg of collagen.
How much vitamin C does one serving provide?

How does Prime Collagen differ from Prime Beef?
Prime Beef is a protein supplement made from hydrolyzed beef, used as a source of protein in the diet. Prime Collagen is a smaller serving (15 g once daily) containing 5 g of hydrolyzed collagen, vitamin C, L-glutamine, astaxanthin, sodium hyaluronate, and bamboo silica. These are products from the same line that differ in composition and purpose but share the same fantastic quality.
Why is there sediment at the bottom after mixing?
This is a natural sediment from Haematococcus pluvialis algae extract. It’s best to drink the beverage immediately after mixing.
What is a sweetened product?
It’s sweetened with steviol glycosides from stevia and erythritol in the form of the Stevial® Blend. It contains no sucralose, aspartame, acesulfame potassium, or other synthetic sweeteners of questionable reputation. Erythritol, when consumed in excessive amounts, may have a laxative effect, so do not exceed one serving per day.
In summary, Needed Prime Collagen is a high-quality hydrolyzed bovine collagen enriched with glutamine, natural vitamin C, astaxanthin from algae, sodium hyaluronate, and bamboo silica. It has a gentle formulation, and its flavor comes from natural aromatics and Stevial® Blend, without any synthetic sweeteners.
