Sugar Detox Coach Finally Finds a Clean Protein Powder to Recommend to Clients Print 7 LikeDislike By Julie Fischer “I’m so pleased to have finally found a clean protein powder to recommend to my sugar detox clients. Further Food Collagen is all natural, paleo, free of gluten, dairy, sugar and soy, and dissolves completely with no gritty taste. It’s a welcome addition to my morning routine!” – JulieMy clients often come to me looking for an option for a clean protein supplement. They want a protein source that is all natural, dairy free, gluten free, sugar-free, paleo and has no gritty taste. Something that they could even use while on a sugar detox. I thought there was no such thing. Until now. I’ve heard a lot of buzz recently about collagen, which is an animal protein source that also has several superfood health benefits. Once I heard that my friends over at Further Food were developing a new product made from 100% grass fed collagen that is paleo, dissolves completely and has no flavor, I knew I had to try it. Finally, a protein powder that is compliant with the 21-Day Sugar Detox (and Further Food’s 10 Day Sugar Detox Plan)! It’s called Further Food Collagen, and I have been using it daily as a new addition to my morning routine. A scoop dissolves completely in any hot or cold liquid, and it’s 100% tasteless and grit-free! Some other proteins have made me feel too full or even upset my digestion. Not this one. I have used it in soups, juices, smoothies and even bone broth. You can also cook with it. They have a whole collection of recipes on their website! But wait… what exactly IS collagen? Well, first of all, collagen is the most abundant protein in our body – it makes up 90% of our connective tissue, 70% of skin, and 90% of bone mass. As we get older, our body starts producing less collagen. This decline is what leads to wrinkles, saggy skin, joint stiffness, and weaker bones. Our ancestors practiced whole-animal eating to supplement this collagen loss, but we don’t eat this way today.You can read all about the benefits of collagen here. These are a few of the benefits that have been studied:Stronger bones, joints, hair, nails and teethReduced wrinkles and firmer, more hydrated skinImproved gut healthWeight loss and decreased appetiteIncreased athletic performanceI have been using Further Food Collagen post-workout, and find that it helps my body to recover more quickly. I’m typically a bit of a skeptic when it comes to superfood claims, but I do believe my skin is looking firmer already! I should also mention that Further Food Collagen is affordable. A one-month supply is less than $20.Have you tried collagen protein powder? If so, I would love to hear how it’s been going for you! Want to see all the wonderful effects that collagen has for yourself? Try adding a scoop of Further Food Collagen into your morning routine and see the changes happen before your eyes! *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

Recipe Team April 24, 2018 at 11:11 amThanks for the question. To our knowledge, antibiotics are not used in the cows that we use to make our collagen. Regular testing has not shown any presence of antibiotics. Reply ↓

Julie April 2, 2017 at 4:37 amHi Bettina, While further collagen is a pure protein source and may have several benefits, I do suggest checking with your doctor before trying a new supplement. In good health, Julie Reply ↓
Bettina Helmer April 1, 2017 at 5:38 pmHello Julie,I have a question please. I was diagnosed with Autoimmune Hepatitis. Is it okay for me to use Further Collagen? I did start using it and thought maybe I should ask before consuming more. Thank you.Bettina Helmer Reply ↓
Sara January 9, 2017 at 10:45 amAlmost immediately after starting the 7 day sugar detox and Further collagen I have noticed improved energy. within 4 days my extremely dry skin was relieved, and my sleep quality improved. My appetite is diminished and mental acuity increased. I cannot say enough good things about not only this product but the 7 day sugar detox challenge- the recipes are great. Reply ↓
