Zint Collagen Peptides Powder 32 oz

I have tried other collagen supplement products, but the others were in capsule form, so they had to be swallowed individually. In comparison, it's much easier to mix Zint powder with my morning coffee and at the same time, increase my intake amount. With the Zint powder, I use about 1 Tbsp to 1.5 Tbsp per 10 Oz coffee mug. I never have a problem with dissolving any amount. I never tasted any difference, which I was surprised with back when I 1st tried this product back in February of 2016. I do find myself very picky with tastes & textures, so the lack of affecting my coffee''s flavor is phenomenal! Lol The one thing I keep on mind when ordering from the Amazon site, is the seller. Because the same products can be sold by different entities or "virtual" stores, I find it very important to add the seller info when rating the products, so that the product isn't counterfeit or tampered with. Sometimes people post such vastly different reviews but this maybe due to the seller's part. In this case, I've always made ordered Zint from Zint USA or Zint. I have been using this product faithfully since February, as mentioned above, and I do plan on posting updates on its effects. Products like these take time for the body to absorb & use in the proper form. Because this product should aid in hair, nails, & joints. . I want enough time for the hair & nails to grow out. I have, however, seen less breakage in my hair... just waiting to see if it grows in thicker. My joints tend to ache more in the winter months, so that's another reason why I plan to update in the future. ***UPDATE*** 3-23-17 Well since using, I can say I've had less joint pain, to where it's getting rarer for me to be in pain. I've gone this whole winter with very few days I'm in pain & those days aren't as painful as in the past. My hair seems to be thicker, which is awesome. It's as thick or thicker than when I was a teen. My nails don't seem to chip as much either. I'm a mechanic so I'm always working with my hands. My nails rarely ever break staight out but more split in layers (like a nail polish chip) & become flimsy... that's what I mean about chipping. It's almost rare now. With the skin, I can't say I've seen a direct improvement with just the Collagen. It was more when I started using Black Castor Oil for moisturizing & a diluted form of Apple Cider Vinegar with Essential Oils as an astringent for the last couple months, when I experienced clearer & more supple skin. I try to use only 1 product at a time for proof of effectiveness but in this case, with my skin & complexion, I was getting impatient. I apologize for that. I'mean going to continue using as stated in my original review just because of the improvements with joint pain alone. It doesn't cost that much & I see more benefit than harm or waste at this point.
