Key Collagen is an unflavored blend of collagen peptides to support healthy skin, bones, and joints. Collagen makes up a significant component of many tissues such as tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and bone. This concentrated dietary source of collagen is an excellent choice to support a host of health benefits including:

Worth the wait
"Skeptical at first, I can now say, that after six months of daily Key Collagen, I am noticing a huge improvement! I have cartilage loss and bone spurs on my left knee. It would hurt to walk, bike, or just do my job. Cortisone and gel injections gave only temporary relief. I'm not feeling that pain now and am HOPING this continues! Pretty exciting."

Bone is a mixture of minerals held in collagen. Without collagen, bone minerals would be extremely brittle and prone to breakage.
Collagen peptides in Key Collagen help the regeneration of joint cartilage, making joints smoother and more mobile.
Those who supplement with Key Collagen may experience firmer and smoother skin and fewer wrinkles and cellulite.
Supplementing with Key Collagen may decrease the risk of injury while improving flexibility.
1. Collagen is a crucial component of our hair, skin, nails, bones, joints, and ligaments.
2. Our bodies produce less collagen as we age, leading to thinning hair, deep wrinkles, joint pain, and weak bones, which is why supplementing with Key Collagen is vital.
3. Key Collagen is unflavored and mixes easily with water, coffee, tea, and protein smoothies.
Four Patented bio-active Collagen Peptides
Using all five types of collagen: Type I, II, III, V and X
Fortibone® is the specific peptide in Key Collagen for building bone mass.
Bone is a mixture of minerals held in collagen. Without collagen, bone minerals would be extremely brittle and prone to breakage.
The peptides in Fortibone® stimulate the increase of bone components like collagen. These peptides encourage an increase in osteoblast activity (bone building cells) and a decrease in osteoclast activity (bone degrading cells).
Fortigel® is the specific peptide in Key Collagen for cartilage re-growth and joint health.
Many people suffer from joint problems due to aging and overused, stressed joints. Collagen peptides in Fortigel® help the regeneration of joint cartilage, making joints smoother and more mobile, and easing discomfort, thereby increasing quality of life.
Tendoforte® is the specific peptide in Key Collagen that strengthens tendons and ligaments.
Strong tendons and ligaments are essential for movement and stability, and they contribute significantly to our wellbeing and quality of life.
Supplementing with Tendoforte® decreases risk of injury while improving flexibility.
Verisol® is the specific peptide in Key Collagen for growing healthy skin and nails.
The health of skin is affected by internal and environmental factors such as aging, sun rays, hormones, and nutrition. Verisol® peptide stimulates skin growth and fights the loss of collagen.
Those who supplement with Verisol® can experience firmer and smoother skin and fewer wrinkles and cellulite. It also helps to increase fingernail strength and growth, while reducing breakage.

Key Collagen Dramatically Increased My Bone Density
"I have been on Key Collagen for exactly one year. My doctor last year wanted me to go on prescription medication to increase my bone mass since I was in Osteoporosis. After my research into the side effects of these meds, I decided this was not an option. I did a lot of investigating and found Key Collagen with Fortibone was what I needed. So I received my Bone Density results today and my Lumbar spine increased by 10%; Left hip increased by 9%; Right hip increased by 5 % as compared to one year ago. Of course, I have always been taking Calcium, Vit. D and Magnesum but the Key Collagen made the difference this year. So I would highly recommend this product."

Key Collagen FAQs
Key Collagen is hydrolyzed, which means the collagen is broken down into specific protein fragments called peptides. Collagen peptides are short chains of amino acids that are more readily broken down into a form that can enter the bloodstream upon digestion. Read below for more information on peptides.
Key Collagen contains collagen types 1, 2, 3, 5, and 10. Then we also add in high concentrations of the specific collagen peptides Fortigel, Fortibone, Tendoforte, and Verisol for very specialized additional benefits for cartilage, connective tissue, bone, and skin.
We test for heavy metals in every batch. We use only free range cattle from Germany, which doesn’t have the same heavy metal concerns that we have in the United States.
Our collagen is processed at body temperature to assure no denaturing takes place of the protein/amino acids. We boil the collagen under a vacuum at body temperature to remove the fat that contains the stored toxins while not damaging the specific protein peptides.
The Key Collagen Difference: Peptides vs Amino Acid Profile
The bottom line is that the amino acid profile is not the best indicator of a good collagen. You need amino acids in a specific sequence to get the benefits you are looking for. Amino acids on their own do not make up tissue. Amino acids in a specific sequence make up specific types of tissue. The sequences are more important than the quantity of each individual amino acid. Key Collagen contains high concentrations of the specific collagen peptides Fortigel, Fortibone, Tendoforte, and Verisol for very specialized additional benefits for cartilage, connective tissue, bone, and skin.
Look for collagens that call out the types of collagen and any specific peptides they are using, so you know what areas of the body the product is meant to target. If a company doesn’t call out which peptides are included, you can assume the product is made up of one or two types of the cheaper peptides. These products might be great for hair or skin, but they will not satisfy the variety of collagen needs your body has – eg hair, skin, nails, bones, ligaments, and tendons.
Key Collagen was put together using clinical research to understand the doses of peptides needed to deliver the results we were looking for. We are confident that Key Collagen contains enough of the right material to support the body’s vast collagen needs. This is not just the normal hair, skin, and nail collagen. It does those things, but also supports the digestive tract lining, skin elasticity, joint health, placenta health, tendon and ligament strength, and bone strength and flexibility.
