Love Ya Guts: 100% Grass Fed & Finished Gelatin

When I officially began my gut healing journey, back in 2015, meat/bone broths and taking gelatine was a big part of the gut healing regime.

In the Love Ya Guts box, the gelatine comes in a resealable, recyclable bag and is 100% natural and made from nutritious grass fed beef bones and connective tissue. Gelatine is a complete protein source which is filled with essential amino acids that are perfect for building tissue and repair within the body. This all helps to heal our body internally and therefore benefit externally as well.

How is gelatin good for you? (explanation straight from the website)

"As a natural source of protein, our gelatin is made up of essential, non-essential and conditionally-essential amino acids to contribute to the building and repair of bodily tissues. Specifically our gelatin is 20 percent glysine, 10 percent glutamine, 12 percent proline, and 12 percent hydroxyproline which are the amino acids that contribute the building blocks necessary for this to occur and will influence the beneficial effects the protein content has on these tissues."

Some of the benefits include:

• Repairing connective tissue.

• Supporting the gastrointestinal system as the glycine contained in gelatin can help to repair the intestinal wall and most importantly assists the body to digest foods, thereby decreasing your bodies susceptibility to food allergies.

• The keratin from Gelatin can also assist with improving hair and nails.

It is recommended to take a LYG spoonful or 8 - 10g of product mixed in hot meals, in smoothies (this is how I take it each morning), in hot drinks such as tea and coffee or even make it in to a gummy snack.

Allow the gelatine to dissolve in a small amount of hot water (or bloom in a small amount of cold water) before adding to drinks, so it does not clump up at the bottom or simply stir into hot meals (which is what I do). Using these methods you should experience no taste or undesirable texture from the gelatine.

I have been personally using this product for two months now and I have not found any issues with taste or consistency when mixing it with food or drinks. I take this daily in my morning smoothie and sometimes in a herbal tea in the afternoon or evening if I feel the need to snack. I have found since using this gelatine in meals, I am feeling more full for longer periods of time.

This product is not vegan or vegetarian. This product is gluten free. Manufactured in a facility that also processes products containing eggs, fish, shellfish, soy, lupin, tree nuts, and sesame.
