Looking for a different way to take your collagen?

We have compiled a list of our favourite collagen gummies and collagen alternatives from 2021 with the best customer ratings and the most innovative formulas – because we know not everyone’s a fan of powders and pills!

What is collagen?

Collagen plays a very important role in supporting our skin, hair, muscles, tendons and ligaments – it’s actually the most abundant protein found in our body!

We can already make collagen in our own bodies using the amino acids, vitamins and minerals in food and drinks.

The most collagen-rich foods tend to be animal products, with meats, fish and dairy products containing the most.

Unfortunately, as we age, our collagen production can decline, which is one reason why some people are turning to collagen supplements to top their production.

What does collagen do?

Collagen helps our skin retain elasticity and hydration – which is one of the reasons why our skin starts to sag and wrinkle when our bodies start producing less.

The best collagen gummies & alternatives

Without further ado, here are some of our favourite collagen gummies and other collagen alternatives, including:

Collagen gummies and chewable supplements

Perhaps the tastiest collagen supplements around, the following gummies and chewables are an amazing alternative for people who don’t like tablets or powders.
