Perfect Keto Collagen Peptides Protein Powder with MCT Oil, Hydrolyzed Collagen, Type I & III Supplement, Gluten Free, Grass Fed, Low Carb, Keto Coffee Creamer, Collagen for Women & Men, Chocolate

I love Perfect Keto! I wanted a product that included the things I wanted- collagen and mct. It mixes well and tastes great!

I live a keto lifestyle and found that some days I was having trouble meeting my protein limit. I decided to try this and was very surprised by the taste, consistency, and overall quality. I have tried many unflavored and flavored protein powders in the past that are keto friendly and they are all pretty gross. This is the only one I have found that doesn't make me cringe when I drink it or leave a weird aftertaste. It also doesn't leave any residue or grainy-ness when mixed in with my coffee. Usually with other powders I can physically taste the powder grains. I think with how finely milled this one is, I can't physically taste the grains of powder. The only con I see if the size and cost. For just under $40, the container is quite a bit smaller than other protein powders, so the cost per ounce is higher than others (the website says each container has about 20 full scoops, so not a lot). I hope they come out with a larger tub, because that would make this even better. How I use it: I love bulletproof coffee in the morning to replace breakfast on busy days. In a blender, I add coffee, Kerrygold butter, 1 scoop of the Perfect Keto Chocolate Protein powder, 1 tbsp heavy cream, MCT oil, and 2-3 tbsp of Milkadamia milk. Sometimes I add a dash of cinnamon if I really want a good rich flavor. This BPC keeps me full from 8am to 12pm (or later, sometimes).

This collagen powder is not only delicious but I’ve seen huge improvement on my hair and nails. I use it every morning in a smoothie and it dissolves easily.

Sometime in early December, I decided to give this concoction a try because I HATE protein powders, I hate protein shakes and I really hate protein bars. The idea I could put this in coffee was very appealing. The difference this makes for me is astounding. I put a scoop of this (scoop comes with) in my coffee with a little bit of heavy cream and I LOVE it. I stir it with a spoon. No need for a fancy messy blender thing. Not only does it taste good, but it gives me an extra boost of energy that coffee alone does not. I wake up wanting to make coffee so I can drink this. Taste: it is sweetened with Stevia. It has a slight bitter after taste. You could add Splenda to it to make it sweeter. But I’ve been trying to get away from sweeteners for a while and at this point, I am used to the Stevia aftertaste and can appreciate the sweetness. I assumed the main reason for the extra boost of energy was from the MCT oil. This item is so expensive, that instead of reordering (this container only has 20 scoops), I bought a cheaper MCT oil to mix in with heavy cream. What a mess that is. I hate the oil form. It’s messy, requires that you blend the oil into the cream or the oil will float (gross). This is so much better and so I reordered it and I write this as I use up my second container of keto collagen. Each scoop has 10g of protein; which is good for me as I struggle to get enough protein into my diet due to low appetite. The only reason I may not constantly re-order is because of price. Note that my husband, who does like protein powders, bars and shakes; does not find much difference when putting this into coffee. He doesn’t like it particularly, but drinks it fine. He would give it 2 to 3 stars because of taste and price. He sees no difference in his energy level after taking this. The boost is likely to vary person to person. What I do not like: THE PRICE COULD BE LOWER. I would be more likely to get this through Amazon subscription if the price was half of what it is. I do not need the ingredients to be “grass fed”. That’s a hint so you can lower the price point. On my last cup of coffee using this powder, I found a few white granules that while tasteless, were gross. At this price, please remove any collagen that did not powder. It could be fixed by sifting it before filling the containers in the factory. If interested, see my dieting background below: I started when I took a biochemistry class in college, and for a project I needed to research why Atkins did not work. Funny, no matter how much I searched, the evidence pointed at low cab making perfect sense. There are essential amino acids and essential fatty acids (this means that our body cannot make those, we must eat them). And yet, there are no essential carbohydrates, meaning that our body can make all the carbohydrates it needs. And so started my life of “dieting” using the low carb approach. At that time, when I was in my early 20s I lost 60 lbs doing low carb/Atkins. I kept it off for a few years. I had two kids and gained a bunch of weight. I am 39 years old now and my youngest is 5. I was still struggling with weight, even though I would cycle from standard American diet and low carb to control weight gain. Last summer (July 2017) I saw a doctor and under his guidance, I have been doing low carb again. This time around, they call it “ketogenic”. But it is essentially the same thing I did years ago. Under this doctor’s analysis we have been following my cholesterol, sugar and insulin levels and they are the best they have been in a decade. I will be turning 40 in 2018, and maybe because I now see my body as one intolerant to sugar, this time around, I see it as a lifestyle change instead of a diet. By the end of Dec 2017, I had lost 30 lbs.

I’m very happy with this brand. Although I was buying each thing I needed separately(collagen, mct oil, and electrolytes) it can make for a lot of steps when you’re running out the door in the morning. I like knowing I can just add one scoop and some heavy cream to my keto coffee and I’m good to go! It’s expensive, for sure. But I mostly eat homemade foods, and this is worth fitting into my budget. I tried the vanilla and the chocolate. VANILLA: So good in coffee!! I use 1/2 a scoop to 1 scoop depending on how busy my day is going to be. It gave me energy to get through some very long days lately. CHOCOLATE: This tastes really good too and also gives me energy, but I didn’t like it in coffee. 2 teaspoons in just 6 oz hot water with a splash of cream was to die for though! Just like those packets of hot cocoa I drank as a kid! Both are sweet enough to not need sugar due to the stevia, but in coffee I do need a little extra stevia(which I used to hate but trained myself to acquire a taste for it, now I love it). Excellent products, worth the money. One canister of vanilla lasted me longer than a month because I didn’t use full scoops; still felt the benefits though!

Love it! Been using it every day in my coffee, a scant teaspoon, for at least a year now. Delicious, easy to use. My nails and hair are long and strong.

Great product. Tastes good. Easy to mix and not grainy.

Excellent

This is the most horrible tasting thing. I can't even use a teaspoon as it just tastes like poison. It is going straight inn the bin
