I bought the same collagen protein that you did and just received it. How are you taking it? Do you mix it with juice or something? I tasted a small amount and it is pretty discusting. I was thinking about replacing one of my protein shakes for this...what do you think? It has 15 grams of whey/collagen protein.

Yeah it is pretty disgusting stuff...I just chug it down with some water. I take 2 tablespoons at night about an hour before bed...I put one tbsp in my mouth and grab my water and gulp it down together really fast, then do the same for the other tbsp. You could try it in some juice or something though to see if it tastes better that way. I just find it easier to just chug it down with water at the same time and I can block out the taste that way.
It does have a good amount of protein in it...but I still drink my 2 protein drinks a day and take the collagen as extra protein for my daily intake. I figure every little bit helps.
But, I don't see why you couldn't replace it with one of your protein drinks..as long as you're getting plenty of protein in your diet you know.
Good luck and hope it makes a difference for you! Also...I just wrote you back through email.
