I've been mixing this collagen powder into my morning coffee for 8 months now, and wow - I finally understand the hype! The completely tasteless formula is a game-changer compared to other brands that leave a weird aftertaste.

What surprised me most was the joint benefits. After struggling with knee pain during workouts, I noticed significantly less stiffness around month 3. Now I can do squats without that annoying creaking feeling!

The black specs initially worried me (they're just black currant extract), but they disappear completely when stirred. Pro tip: It blends best in warm liquids rather than cold ones.

While some collagen products made my stomach upset, this one absorbs beautifully. My nails grow insanely fast now - I have to file them twice as often! The real magic showed in my skin's texture after consistent use. My forehead lines have softened noticeably, though it took about 5 months to see this change.

Would I repurchase? Absolutely - already on my third tub! Just wish the packaging had a scoop included (I use half a teaspoon per serving).
