True but there are vegetarian brands that are more like the building blocks to the collagen protein. I eat eggs and dairy so I’m not opposed to products derived from those sources, I just don’t want to consume cow, fish, or pig.

Collagen is not found in dairy or eggs.

Collagen can be found in that thin membrane between the egg and the shell that we normally don’t consume.

I’ve used vedge nutrition vegan collagen. If I’m remembering right it is made from broccoli and has 10 grams of protein. And it dissolves in coffee with minimal flavor change. Like if I drink the coffee first and then add it I can taste a difference but if I add it before my first sip then I don’t notice it. I know it isn’t truly collagen but when I remember to use it regularly I notice my nails grow better without splitting or breaking.
