Collagen Plus

Collagen Plus is our latest-generation collagen powder: a high-quality supplement that combines hydrolysed collagen with vitamin C, zinc and biotin. These three nutrients help the body assimilate the essential components of collagen more effectively and support the structure of the skin. In short: Collagen Plus powder is the ideal supplement for anyone who wants to improve their beauty routine in a targeted way that fits easily into everyday life. You can find out how to perfect your beauty routine in our article «Tips for skin, hair and nails: the vitamins that really work».

Our Collagen Original with vitamin C consists of 99,8% pure bovine collagen hydrolysate and vitamin C. Collagen Plus contains the same high-quality collagen base – also a pure bovine collagen hydrolysate – and vitamin C, but is additionally enriched with zinc and biotin. This makes Collagen Plus powder the ideal choice for anyone who wants to support the health of their skin, hair and nails as well as promote collagen formation. Both collagen powders are tasteless, dissolve easily and can be mixed into a wide range of hot or cold drinks or foods.

Because of its zinc content, Collagen Plus is classified as a food supplement. For legal reasons, it must be dosed precisely with a scoop, even though the recommended daily dose of 15 g only covers about 20% of the daily zinc requirement. Collagen Original with vitamin C, on the other hand, is classified as a fortified food: here the law does not require a scoop. This lets us use resources more efficiently and reduce our plastic consumption. That said, our golden scoop lets you dose any of our collagen varieties perfectly.

No, Collagen Plus is not genetically modified. Our high-quality collagen powder is laboratory-tested and made in Germany. However, it may contain traces of gluten and lactose.

We recommend taking 15 g of Collagen Plus powder a day, i.e. about 1,5 tablespoons or one level scoop. Our drinkable collagen powder is tasteless and versatile: use it in coffee, tea, a shake or a smoothie. You can choose whatever time of day you prefer: what matters is daily, long-term use for the best results.

Yes, but make sure the temperature does not exceed 80 °C (176 °F), as the vitamin C it contains is sensitive to heat. It is best to add the collagen powder shortly before drinking, once the drink has cooled down slightly. Coffee made with a fully automatic machine, for example, has a temperature of around 75 °C (167 °F) and is therefore ideal. As a refreshing alternative, the collagen powder also dissolves perfectly in a cold shake or smoothie.

15 g of Collagen Plus provide: 99,8% pure bovine collagen hydrolysate (enzymatically hydrolysed for optimal absorption), 16 mg of vitamin C (20% of the daily requirement), 2 mg of zinc (20% of the daily requirement) and 10 μg of biotin (20% of the daily requirement). Collagen with vitamin C, collagen with zinc and collagen with biotin in one convenient daily dose: that is the idea behind Collagen Plus.

Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation and, as a result, to the normal function of skin, bones, cartilage and blood vessels. It also protects cells from oxidative stress and contributes to energy metabolism.

Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, hair, nails and bones, making it one of the essential nutrients for skin, hair and nails.

Biotin, also known as vitamin B7, helps to maintain normal skin and hair and is a valuable building block for your daily beauty routine. Biotin for hair and skin is therefore already included in your daily dose of Collagen Plus.

Yes! You can flexibly combine Collagen Plus powder with other Glow25 collagen products – for example, Collagen Intensive in the morning and Collagen Plus in the afternoon.

You can also pair it with our collagen capsules (up to 5 a day) for an extra radiance effect.

Important: if you are already taking a combination of two collagen powders (for example, Collagen Intensive + Collagen Plus), you should avoid taking the additional capsules, as your vitamin C intake would otherwise be too high. Also make sure that your total daily zinc intake does not exceed 5 mg. In general, a daily collagen intake of up to 20 g is considered safe. Feel free to increase the dose gradually until you reach the one that suits you best. If in doubt, your doctor will be happy to help.
