Product Description
Collagen is an essential structural protein that makes up approximately 30% of skin protein and 90% of bone protein, but natural production begins to decline in your mid-20s.
Our Hydrolysed Bovine Collagen provides 11 g of grass-fed, Halaal-certified Type I & III collagen per daily 1-tablespoon serving.
Hydrolysed into peptides averaging approximately 3,000 Daltons, designed to dissolve and disperse easily.
Recommended for: Adults looking to support and maintain skin, hair, nail, bone, and joint health.
Pack size: 360 g | 30-day supply
How to Use
Mix 1 tablespoon (12 g of powder) daily into your favourite hot or cold beverage or food, such as water, coffee, or smoothies.
Because it is unflavoured, it disappears seamlessly into any liquid or meal without altering the taste.
Collagen can be taken at any time of day, so choose a time that best fits your daily routine.
Allergens & Suitability
Not suitable for vegetarians or vegans. Manufactured in a facility processing egg, milk, fish, soy, cereals containing gluten and nuts.
If you have liver or kidney disease, or have been instructed to follow a low-protein diet, consult your healthcare practitioner before use. Collagen supplements may cause mild gastrointestinal discomfort.
Benefits
Skin Function & Elasticity
Collagen is a structural component of skin. Some clinical studies suggest that oral collagen peptides may support skin hydration and elasticity, although findings remain mixed.
Bone Structure & Mineralisation
Collagen forms an important part of the structural framework of bone, providing a matrix for mineral deposition.
Joint Comfort & Cartilage Maintenance
Collagen is a structural component of connective tissues. Some clinical trials suggest that collagen supplementation may help improve joint comfort.

Gut-friendly Collagen Peptides
Product
What are collagen peptides?
Collagen peptides provide the amino acids commonly found in collagen, including glycine, proline and hydroxyproline. These contribute to the maintenance of healthy skin, hair, nails, bones, joints and connective tissue structure as part of your normal daily protein intake. Ours comes in a granule format. Collagen granules are a refined, fast-dissolving form of hydrolysed collagen peptides processed into tiny, breadcrumb-like particles.
What does it taste like?
It has a mild, neutral taste and is barely noticeable when mixed into most drinks.
Why is this collagen unflavoured?
Our collagen contains no added sweeteners or flavourings. Its mild taste makes it easy to incorporate into everyday drinks and foods.
What does each serving contain?
Each serving is one tablespoon as 12 g of collagen powder, providing approximately 11 g of protein.
Collagen is not a complete protein because it does not contain all nine essential amino acids. It should complement, rather than replace, other dietary protein sources.
What does "hydrolysed" mean, and why does it matter?
Hydrolysis breaks whole collagen protein into shorter peptide chains, improving solubility and making it easier to incorporate into drinks and foods.
What is a Dalton, and why does 3,000 matter?
A Dalton is a unit of molecular weight. Most collagen peptides on the market sit around 5,000 Daltons. Ours is hydrolysed further, down to roughly 3,000 Daltons. It is a smaller peptide chain that dissolves faster, disperses more easily in liquid, and has a smoother, less noticeable taste than larger, less-processed peptides.
Why Types I & III collagen specifically?
Type I collagen is the most abundant type in the body and provides structure to skin, bones, tendons and ligaments. Type III is also found in skin, blood vessels and other connective tissues.
Our bovine collagen is predominantly derived from Type I collagen, with a smaller proportion derived from Type III.
Does it contain any allergens?
No major declared allergens are used in this formula. It is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans. The product is manufactured in a facility processing egg, milk, fish, soy, cereals containing gluten and nuts.
Usage and safety
Can I take Moment Collagen during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
Collagen peptides are a food-derived protein supplement, but research specifically examining collagen supplementation during pregnancy and breastfeeding is limited.
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your healthcare practitioner before use. Collagen does not replace a balanced diet or prenatal multivitamin.
How do I take it?
These Hydrolysed Bovine Collagen Peptides can be added to hot or cold water, coffee, smoothies and various foods. Mix one tablespoon with your chosen medium. Unflavoured, so it disappears into whatever you're already consuming.
Do I have to take a full tablespoon daily?
One tablespoon is the recommended daily serving. If you're new to collagen supplements, it's fine to start with less and build up to the full serving over a week or two. We wouldn't recommend exceeding the recommended daily serving.
Can I take it alongside other supplements or medication?
Collagen is a food-derived protein supplement without known significant medication interactions. That said, if you're taking regular medication or have a chronic health condition, please check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting any new supplement.
What should I expect when starting?
Collagen is generally well tolerated. A small number of people may notice mild digestive discomfort when starting any new protein supplement - taking it with food or a drink, as directed, usually helps.
How should I store the Collagen?
Store in a cool, dry place with lid tightly closed.
