Best Collagen Gummies for a gift? Mom or gym bro?
Hey all, I wanna get a collagen gummy pack as a gift but not sure which brand? One is for my mom (she's 60, wants joint & skin help) and another for my gym buddy (he's all about recovery). Any recs? Prefer something natural, no weird additives.
Yesss I got my mom some from Vital Proteins and she loves em! Tastes like berries, no jello aftertaste. For your gym friend maybe look for ones with added vitamin C or biotin? That helps with collagen absorption I think. My buddy swears by the Garden of Life ones.
Bro, I've tried a ton! For your mom, the Nordic Naturals ones are bomb – they have hyaluronic acid too which is great for skin. Your gym pal might dig the Orgain collagen gummies, they've got like 20g protein per serving? Not sure but def check the label. Also, if he's vegan avoid most collagen cuz it's usually from animal sources – there's vegan stuff now though!
As a gym rat myself, I'd say get your friend the RSP AminoLean collagen gummies – they have aminos for recovery and a lil caffeine for pre-workout. But be careful if he's sensitive to caffeine! For your mom, the Youtheory ones are solid, they have vitamin C and zinc. Also, consider a bundle – some brands do 'health packs' with collagen + multivitamin gummies.
Awesome thanks guys! I think I'll go with Youtheory for mom and RSP for my buddy. Appreciate the tips on vegan & caffeine, my friend is not vegan so animal source is fine. Thanks again!
